FILTRATION

Filtri in pressione verticali ottimi per separare liquidi e solidi in presenza di piccole superfici di filtrazione

VERTICAL PRESSURE LEAF FILTERS

Vertical pressure leaf filters are an efficient system for separating solids and liquids when there are small filtration surfaces.

Easy to use and requiring little maintenance, vertical pressure leaf filters are composed of rectangular filtering leaves of different sizes vertically mounted on an outlet manifold installed in a pressure tank.

The filtering elements are able to filter through both sides of the leaves. This means it is possible to customize operation of the filter according to the needs of the plant.

TECNIPLANT vertical pressure leaf filters are equipped with a filtering element cleaning device for removing the cake in two ways:

  1. dry discharge
  2. wet discharge

 

In the dry discharge configuration, the cake is removed with a high-frequency vibration system and is discharged through a connection flange on the bottom of the tank.

In the wet discharge configuration, instead, the cake is removed with sprayers mounted in a horizontal device that oscillates at variable speed. In this case, the device cleans the entire filtration surface with powerful jets of water or solvent.
