Vertical Pressure Leaf Filter

Filtrex vertical leaf filtration system is high quality equipment. This filter produces a high filtrate clarity after the clarification run and is also suitable for all kinds of filter aids. VPLF (Vertical Pressure Leaf Filter) can be used for numerous batch and continues filtration process. The fluid to be filtered flows through the filter medium, which covers both side of the filter leaf. Collected solids remain on the filter leaf as filter cake. In most of the cases this filter cake is then dried through steam or Air. This dried filter cake is then dropped using vibrator activation. The regeneration time between the filtration cycles is short, with automated discharge valve filter cake can be disposed.

The most important factor while designing PLF for a particular process is product leftover in the filter media/ filter cake. There are several parameters that determines the product residual. VPLF Filtration method enhances product recovery.

We Filtrex Industries can recommend your filter design to optimize your production loss. Vertical pressure leaf filters can also be delivered as tandem units to save floor space. The pressure leaf filter itself has no rotating parts, keeping maintenance to a minimum. These advantages result in an economical filtration solution. The most important part of the pressure leaf filter is the leaf, the double sided filter leaves are made from stainless steel. The rigid filter leaves have five layers of stainless-steel wire mesh. The mesh size and material selection will add to operational efficiency and filter reliability. In most of food and beverage industry large volumes of products need to be handled, Filtrex Industries offers customized design as per product and filtration requirement, increases efficiency and economy together with reliability. Our extensive product range can be utilized for all areas of food and beverage market. Filter leaf’s detailed specifications are mentioned below. Our state of art production facility increases filter quality, automated riveting machine is used for assembling filter housing. An incorrect riveting could lead to major leak in the entire system; a single leak path in any leaf will cause a total system failure. In a machine riveted leaf leaks would not occur after long operational years.
