Product catalog summary
Filter Cloth Overview
ErtelAlsop provides assistance in selecting the appropriate filter press media, ensuring optimal fabric and weave selection, along with suitable finishing operations and construction techniques for filtration applications. The goal is to achieve good particle retention, clear filtrate, high flow rates, and dry filter cakes.
Filter Press Media Selection
The choice of filter media is based on specific operating conditions, required performance, and criteria provided by the client or determined through lab sample processing. Available fabric materials include Polypropylene, Polyester, Nylon, Teflon, and Cotton.
Construction Techniques
Filter media is constructed from woven and nonwoven materials such as Monofilament, Multifilament, Spun staple yarns, Needle-punched felts, Spun-bonded, and Laminates. Changes in process conditions may necessitate a re-evaluation of media type for optimal performance.
Importance of Correct Filter Cloth
Using the correct filter cloth and maintaining it properly is crucial for achieving high productivity, good flow rates, exceptional cake release, lower differential operating pressure, clear filtrate, dry cakes, maximum media life, and minimal maintenance costs.
Product Testing and Pilot Testing
Product testing is available at client facilities, through distributors, or at ErtelAlsop's in-house laboratory. For in-plant testing and scale-up procedures, lab filters are available for rent, with rental fees applicable towards the purchase of a full production filter.
