Technical feature

- Filtration area; from 65 m² to 800 m²

- Compression pressure; from 0.7 MPa to 1.5 MPa (Max 2.9MPa)

Mechanism:

1. Feeding

The slurry is fed via the feed port at the top of the filter plate. The solids in the feed build up as dry cake while the filtrate exits through the filtrate ports.

2. Compression and Air Blow

Air is fed from one side for the chamber, displacing cake moisture and exits through the next chamber

3. Cake Discharge

When all the filter plates are opened, the cake discharges by gravity. If not, a detection systems is activated and assists the cake discharge

4. Cloth Wash

Upon completion of the cake discharge process, the filter cloth is washed from the top of the plate pack.
