The BHS Pressure Plate Filter provides for thin-cake pressure filtration, cake washing, drying, reslurry and automatic discharge as well as heel filtration in an enclosed, pressure vessel. Units are available from 0.17 m2 up to over 45 m2 of filter area per vessel.
Pressure Plate Filters are installed for clarification and recovery applications from liquids with low solids content with 5% to less than 1% solids and trace amounts.
Technical Description
A filter cake is filtered onto a set of horizontal, slightly conical filter plates – arranged in a stack inside a pressure vessel. The filtrate passes through the filter media to a central manifold from where it leaves the pressure vessel. Following the process steps of filtration, washing, extraction, steaming, blowout or hot drying, the filter cake is vibrated from the set of plates by two unbalanced motors.
