5. Introduction
Filter Press consists of sturdy S.S. 304/316/316L quality
stainless steel shell with a top cover held in place with
tightening bolts, a filter cartridge assembly consisting of
several horizontally arranged disc type filter plates with
perforated
supporting
screens,
filter
media
and
interlocking cups. The entire assembly, complete with
pump and piping connection, is mounted on a suitable
stand fitted with castors for easy movement.
Operation
The liquid to be filtered is passed to shell by the transfer pump, where it finds its way to top of
plate through circular openings on the sides of plates. As the liquid progresses through the
plates and the screens, the filter medial arrest suspensions and allow the filtrate to pass
through. Finally the filtrate runs down a central channel formed by the interlocking cups and
exits through the outlet pipe. While these filter presses are generally used for obtaining
clarified filtrate, cakes can also be obtained in the inter-plate space.
Features:-

GMP model stands on SS trolley

Manufactured using quality raw material such as S.S. 304/316/316L M.O.C

Having M.S./S.S. Jacket for hot filtration

Available in various sizes and different diameters having numerous number of plates

It also provides the Back wash facility for continuous operations.

The horizontal filter plates prevent the cake dropping from the shell.

6. Description
Stainless Steel Zero Hold Up
Type Filter Presses are made to a
special modular design that
guarantees precisely the right
filtration requirements for each
application. Available in a
wide range of output capacities,
with different number and height
of filter plate, as well as a
choice of flow pump.

Meets GMP and FDA norms.
Construction follows the latest standard & engineered to perfection.
Available models – 8, 14, 18, 24 inches plate diameter.
Available with centrifugal / gear / lobe rotor pump.
Fitted with pressure gauge, safety valve & air vent.
Gives crystal clear filtration.
All contact parts in SS 304/316/316L.
High degree of finish to all contact parts.
Added features for zero Hold Up (Reverse Flow) with Back Wash.
Minimum hold up of unfiltered slurry, boost in productivity.
Typical Construction
Filter Press consists of a sturdy Stainless Steel shell with a top cover held in place with
tightening bolts, Cartridge assembly consists of several plates of patented screens and inter
locking cups. The design ensures that the unfiltered liquid hold up is minimum, almost nil.
The entire assembly, complete with piping, pump etc. is all mounted on a stainless steel
trolley with sturdy castors. Flameproof Filter Press is also available (Optional).

7. Operation
The Liquid to be filtered is passed to the central passage of the filter cartridge. From here it
finds its way to the different filter plates on which suitable filter media is used. As the liquid
progresses through the filter plates and the screens, the filter media arrests the suspensions and
allows the filtrate to the shell of the main body of the filter media. In some cases, the process
requires the recovery of the cake. The same can be collected from the top of the filter media.
The added feature of this filter is that it can be backwashed without dismantling the cartridge.
In case the product is same, the filter-aid required after back washing is only marginal. Since
the top dome is free from any piping connection, the removal of filter cartridge is very easy.
Scavenger arrangement is not required.
