Features:

 Vertical Plate Filter

The Vertical Plate Filter (VF) is a pressure filter and consists of a vertical tank with vertically positioned filter plates. VF filter plates filter on both sides, offering a large filtration area in a relative small vessel. The VF filter can be used for a variety of applications. 

VF filters are suitable for wet or dry cake discharge.

Wet cake discharge filter models                 

are cleaned by built-in spray pipes. The slurry is discharged through a large bottom drain. In Dry Cake Discharge filter models, the filter is equipped with a pneumatic vibrator. The cake is discharged either through a hydraulic operated quick opening tank bottom or a butterfly valve. The filter cake can be dried by compressed air, inert gas or steam before the cake is discharged by the vibrator. Vertical Plate Filters can be utilized for manual, semi-automatic or fully automatic operation.

EDIBLE OIL FILTRATIONS

An ideal filter for crude oil, micelle as well as bleaching earth filtrations with dry cake discharge. Also suitable for nickel recovery

CATALYST RECOVERY

For the recovery of smaller and larger amounts of catalyst. Removal of catalyst as dry cake or slurry. Popular in hydrogen peroxide, hydrogenation processes

ACTIVATED CARBON REMOVAL For the clarification of liquids after decolonization, purification or deodorization processes.

CHEMICAL FILTRATION

Vertical Plate Filters are used in a variety of chemical processes, like amines used in gas scrubbing, detergents, liquid polymers, fertilizers, water filtrations and many more.

POLISHING APPLICATIONS Vertical Plate filters can be used for polishing of liquids before storage or further processing. The large cake volume assures long cycles, against the lowest operational costs.

Material of construction

Tanks and all wet table parts are available in several grades of stainless steels

Operating Pressure

Standard tank construction accommodates 4 bar working pressure. Higher pressures are available on request. Allowable pressure difference across the filter plates 3.5 bar

Optional

Optional equipment includes: heating or cooling jackets, segment clamp bolted or hydraulic operated quick opening covers, Pneumatic vibrator, top mounted sprays.

Engineering Specifications
