Salient Features:

Central feeding of Unfiltered liquid ensures :

  • Single pass clear filteration.
  • Full Batch recovery of the filterate.
  • No Scavenging of the filterate.
  • Complete Cake retains on the Plate.
  • Uniform distribution of cake on each plate.
  • Reduce the cost of treatement of Catalyst, Toxic Chemicals.
  • Less Exposure to the operating person.
  • No contamination of the internal surface of the Shell.

Equal thickness of the Cake on each plate ensures :

  • Minimum amount of solvent required to wash the Active Material from the Cake.
  • Reduce the cost of expensive solvents.
  • Cake can be thoroughly dried either by compressed air or by inert Gas.
  • Uniform Filter - Aid Bed can be formed.

Closed System ensures :

  • Filteration of Toxic, Hazardous, Explosive materials/ Unit can be sterilised.

Plate pack arrangement ensures :

  • Any type of filtering media singularly or in combination,
  • can be used to achieve required micro efficiency. Easy removal and cleaning of the Cartridge Assembly.

Additional provision of External Tightening Arrangement ensures :

  • Tightening of the Cartridge, Assembly during Filteration.

Working Pressure :

  • Minimum 0.1 Kg / Cm2 & maximum 10 kg/cm2

WORKING :

  • The Cartridge assembly consists of plates, perforated screens, spacers and fitter media.
  • Interlocking spacers internally form single pipeline. The unfiltered liquid is centrally fed under pressure from bottom inlet.
  • The liquids spreads out equally on each plate fitted with filter media.
  • Solids remain on filter media and clear. filterate flows through precisely made holes on sides of plates and collects in the shell,
  • which then comes out through the outlet. In this process, solids are evenly distributed on each plate.
  • At the end of the cycle the cake can be dried by applying compressed air or inhert gas.

Material of Construction :

  • Stainless Steel : SS 304 / SS 316 / SS 316 L

Optional :

  • For hot filteration application S.S. Jacket can be provided around and at the bottom of the shell,
  • for circulation of heat transfer media viz, hot water, Steam or thermic fluids.

Applications :

  • Pharmaceuticals, Perfumes, I.V. Fluids, Dyes & Chemicals, Activated Carbon, Pesticides, Cosmetics, Varnishes, Polymers,
  • Resins & Paints, Sugar Syrup, Food, Plant Water Polishing, Fruit Juice, Soft drink, Beer & Liquors, Edible & Non-Edible Oils.

NOTES :

  • Filtration area and cake holding capacity have been computed for standard models 8", 14", 18" and 33" Ø.
  • The values of flow rates mentioned in technical specifications have been estimated for the following operating parameters :
  • Fluid : Water
  • Insoluable : Carbon
  • Filter media : Non-woven polypropylen cloth of 418 grade.
  • Carbon loading : 5 kg/m2 filteration area.

The actual flow-rate will differ from the estimated value depending on the operating variables.
