What is a filter press?
A filter press is used to separate liquids and solids. It is a discontinuous pressure filter that cleans the liquids. The filter press is an alternative to cleaning with centrifuges, belt presses or thickening systems.
The filter press separates the liquid from the solids at pressures of 100 to 600 bar. Various systems such as chamber filter presses, frame filter presses and membrane filter presses with differently designed filter plates are used. However, the basic principle is always the same. The filter plates are covered with a filter cloth, which allows liquids to pass and retains particles. At the end of the filtration cycle the remaining particles in the filter are removed.
Many filter presses are equipped with an automatic cleaning and washing device. It consists of a nozzle bar that automatically cleans the filter cloth. The manual cleaning with spray gun and special nozzle holder is also possible.
