Pressure / Agitated Nutsche Filters
Agitator filters are most suited to the filtration in batches of liquids with a high solid content, in particular where ambitious subsequent treatment of the solids is intended. Here, the liquid is separated mechanically using a permeable layer (filter medium) and either using a vacuum by exploiting the atmospheric pressure or with the help of pressure and/or a combination of vacuum & pressure. A special agitator improves the degree of filtration effectiveness and enables the mechanical discharge of the solid. An even filter cake forms on the horizontal base of the filter, which ensures the best possible recovery of the solids.
The agitator filters are capable of performing following activities:
- Inerting
- Filling
- Filtration
- Washing
- Drying
- Cooling
- Discharging
- Cleaning
Usage: Ideal for chemical, pharmaceutical, Agro chemical, fine chemical and food industries.
