Micronics Filter Press DiagramA filter press is a piece of equipment used in liquid/solid separation. Specifically, the filter press separates the liquids and solids using pressure filtration, wherein a slurry is pumped into the filter press and is dewatered under pressure. Basically, each filter press is designed based on the volume and type of slurry that needs to be dewatered. Micronics, Inc. is a trusted expert in liquid/solid separation and offers a wide range of filter press types and capacities to suit specific application needs for trouble-free, economical dewatering. These include configurations such as sidebar automatic, manual overhead, automatic dual overhead beam, stainless steel clad, explosion-proof filter presses, vacuum filter presses, and hand filter presses.
The four main components of a Fengwang filter press include the frame, filter plates, manifold (piping and valves), and filter cloth, a key ingredient for optimizing filter press operations.
A) Frame (Skeleton): The steel filter press frame acts as a clamping device for the filter plates.
B) Filter Plates: There are three basic categories of filter plates all with different functions – plate and frame, recessed chamber (or recessed plate) and diaphragm squeeze (also known as membrane squeeze).
C) Manifold: Our standard manifold consists of piping and valves which control the slurry inlet and connect the four corner filtrate discharge ports into a common discharge pipe.
D)Filter Cloth: A cloth filter that is attached to the filter plate. Solids build up on cloth to form a filter cake, separating liquids from solids.
Fengwang Box filter press is a kind of intermittent operation of the filter equipment, by the material pump will be suspended liquid into the filter chamber in the machine to form pressure filtration, mainly used in coal washing plant, cleaned coal, tail coal recovery, also can be used in petroleum, chemical, dye, pharmaceutical and other industries.
Types of filter presses
There are four main basic types of filter presses: plate and frame filter presses, recessed plate and frame filter presses, membrane filter presses and (fully) automatic filter presses.
HOW DOES A FILTER PRESS WORK?
The working principle of filter presses is that slurry is pumped into the machine such that solids are distributed evenly during the fill cycle. Solids build up on the filter cloth, forming the filter cake; the filtrate exits the filter plates through the corner ports into the manifold, yielding clean filtered water.
Filter presses are a pressure filtration method and as such, as the filter press feed pump builds pressure, solids build within the chambers until they are completely chock-full of solids, forming the cake. Once the chambers are full, the cycle is complete and the filter cakes are ready to be released. In many higher capacity filter presses, fast action automatic plate shifters are employed, speeding cycle time. Some filter presses are specifically designed for fully automatic, 24-hour operation in a harsh environment such as mines or chemical manufacturing plants.
CUSTOMIZING A FILTER PRESS FOR YOUR APPLICATION NEEDS
The industry, application and operational considerations will guide specifics such as the overall design, filtration capacity, number of chambers, filter plate size, materials of construction, as well as additional features/systems such as automatic plate shifters, cloth washing system, drip trays, cake shields and safety light curtains. Design of a filter press depends on a host of factors such as filtration cycle time, cake dryness required, cloth life, whether manual or automated plate shifting is desired, and many other factors.
