Uses and features of sparkler type filter press

Sparkler type filter press

Sparkler type filter press

Sparkler Filter Press offered to comprise the precision designed a range of sparkler filter press based on the working principle of unfiltered liquid fed into the filter through positive pressure where fed fluid travels through opening given on sides of Filter Plates. With the increase in liquid pressure, filter media works by holding foreign particles and only allows clear filtrate to pass through the central channel formed through interlocking pressure cups to the outlet.

Bombay Engineering’s SPARKLER filter redefines filtration through compactness, ease of operation, and robust engineering, which are ideal for filtration of syrup, liquid, chemicals, oil beverages, etc.; the filter presses are enclosed, leak-proof assembly. Horizontal filter press, Filter cartridge assembly made of no. of disc Type Filter plates perforated filter screens, filter media, interlocking cups with pump & piping, mounted on a trolley.

The swing bolt design ensures airtight sealing and gives the operator the ability to assemble and disassemble the filtration system quickly. Jacketing option can be provided for heating or cooling the product. The zero hold up models ensure all the fluid is transferred to the filtrate side without any holdup. Skid-mounted assembly ensures portability and compactness. The filter presses are available in various MOC to suit the product to be filtered and the process required. Various nominal diameters are available 8, 14,18,24, 33 inches with a surface area ranging from 0.1 – 10 m2.

 Working:

The liquid is directed with pumps through the cartridge’s center channel from the bottom of the body. Suspended particles get retained on the fitter medium resting on the filter plates, and the clear filtrate emerges from the plates’ side holes inside the tank and flows out from the bottom outlet. The filter tank does not come into contact with the liquids and hence remains clean. The cake filtrates and solids remain entirely inside the fully closed filter plate cartridge. Complete recovery of the filtrate is possible by passing air or an inert gas through the bottom inlet to dry the cakes and get a clean empty tank.

 

  • The filtration process continues till the cake holding a unit’s capacity is reached/till the filtrate rate almost stops due to cake resistance.
  • An Enclosed construction that prevents evaporation or oxidation and also leakage possibilities.
  • It is available with different plate size options, including the deep plate for providing the large percentage of cake holding capacity and the Shallow plate for the small percentage of cake holding capacity.
  • It comes with a horizontal filter plate that prevents the cake from dropping or cracking, thus providing optimum filtrate quality.
  • Filtration area and cake holding capacity can also be customized (increased/decreased) as per the process needs.
  • AVAILABLE CAPACITIES: Standard models 8″, 14″, 18″, and 33″.
