“The Bombay Engineering Works”
has been actively involved in the manufacturing of various
types of filteration systems for more than eight years
viz. sparkler, spiral, bag, leaf, neutsche, etc.
It now adds one more to its range by introducing a new
generation of Zero Hold-up Horizontal Plate closed pressure
filter, made first time in India for clarification and
separation of solids from liquid.
Our normal practice, the filter is thoroughly tested in
our factory & proved before releasing for marketing.
Salient Features:
Central feeding of Unfiltered liquid ensures :
- Single pass clear filteration.
- Full Batch recovery of the filterate.
- No Scavenging of the filterate.
- Complete Cake retains on the Plate.
- Uniform distribution of cake on each plate.
- Reduce the cost of treatement of Catalyst, Toxic
Chemicals.
- Less Exposure to the operating person.
- No contamination of the internal surface of the
Shell.

|
Equal thickness of the Cake on each
plate ensures :
- Minimum amount of solvent required to wash the
Active Material from the Cake.
- Reduce the cost of expensive solvents.
- Cake can be thoroughly dried either by compressed
air or by inert Gas.
- Uniform Filter - Aid Bed can be formed.
|
Closed
System ensures :
Filteration
of Toxic, Hazardous, Explosive materials/ Unit can be
sterilised.
|
Plate
pack arrangement ensures :
Any
type of filtering media singularly or in combination,
can be used to achieve required micro
efficiency. Easy removal and cleaning of the Cartridge
Assembly.
|
Additional
provision of External Tightening Arrangement ensures :
Tightening
of the Cartridge, Assembly during Filteration.
|
Working
Pressure :
Minimum 0.1 Kg / Cm2 & maximum 10 kg/cm2
|
WORKING
:
The Cartridge assembly consists of plates, perforated
screens, spacers and fitter media. Interlocking spacers
internally form single pipeline. The unfiltered liquid
is centrally fed under pressure from bottom inlet. The
liquids spreads out equally on each plate fitted with
filter media. Solids remain on filter media and clear.
filterate flows through precisely made holes on sides
of plates and collects in the shell, which then comes
out through the outlet. In this process, solids are evenly
distributed on each plate. At the end of the cycle the
cake can be dried by applying compressed air or inhert
gas.

Material
of Construction :
Stainless Steel : SS 304 / SS 316 / SS 316 L
|
Optional
:
For hot filteration application S.S. Jacket can
be provided around and at the bottom of the shell, for
circulation of heat transfer media viz, hot water, Steam
or thermic fluids.
|
Applications :
Pharmaceuticals, Perfumes, I.V. Fluids, Dyes
& Chemicals, Activated Carbon, Pesticides, Cosmetics,
Varnishes, Polymers, Resins & Paints, Sugar Syrup,
Food, Plant Water Polishing, Fruit Juice, Soft drink,
Beer & Liquors, Edible & Non-Edible Oils.
|
NOTES :
Filtration area and cake holding capacity have
been computed for standard models 8", 14", 18"
and 33" Ø.
The values of "Flow-Rates" mentioned in technical
specifications have been estimated for the following operating
parameters :
| a) Fluid |
: Water |
| b) Insoluable |
: Carbon |
| c) Filter media |
: Non-woven polypropylen cloth of 418 grade. |
| d) Carbon loading |
: 5 kg/m2 filteration area. |
The actual flow-rate will differ from the estimated value
depending on
the operating variables. |
