Nutsche Pressure Filter Apparatus Model FM 117
Nutsche Pressure Filter Apparatus Model FM 117
Sci-tech Nutsche Pressure Filters Apparatus Model FM 117 are used for discontinuous cake filtration of suspensions with high solid concentrations. The suspension production unit produces a suspension of diatomite and water and delivers it from above into the Nutsche filter. In the bottom flange of the Nutsche filter is a recessed sieve base with a filter cloth. A growing filter cake accumulates on the filter cloth made from the separated solid material. The applied positive pressure in the top section of the Nutsche filter pushes the filtrate through the filter cake and the filter cloth. It is collected in the bottom section of the tank. After filtering, the filter cake obtained is washed with a washing liquid (water) and is then dried by an air flow.
