Pneumapress Automatic Pressure Filters

Compare Performance Pneumapress delivers: • Drier solids • Cleaner filtrate • Easier operation • Lower maintenance The Pneumapress Filter has become the standard by which other automatic pressure filters are being measured. This phenomenal device delivers higher performance and lower maintenance costs that any other automatic filter available. Often installed at a fraction of the cost of other automatic filters. The Pneumapress filter was developed as a result of years of problems with liquids/ solids separation. We wanted to design a simple automatic pressure filter that eliminates consumable...

1. Filtration: Slurry or dirty liquid is pumped into a filter chamber formed by lowering upper plate onto filter media. Filter media may be recleanable woven cloth or disposable media. Filtered liquid (filtrate) is collected at the lower plate and flows out through the filter outlet. Options: May add step(s) to efficiently wash slurry solids. May introduce solvent into filter chamber to dissolve minerals, remove oils, or selectively extract materials from filtered solids. May effectively introduce reagent for desired reaction. Automatic feeding systems available to introduce filter aid, flocculation...

Low installation costs Minimal structural installation requirements, minimal floor space requirements, simple assembly, few process connections and minimal peripheral equipment results in low installation costs. Single-sided discharge simplifies filter cake conveyor design. Low maintenance costs Because of the mechanical simplicity of the Pneumapress filter and the selection of components to ensure local availability for the end user, maintenance costs are minimized. The Pneumapress Filter eliminates a multitude of devices, piping and equipment used on other filters. The Pneumapress Filter utilizes...

applications, the Pneumapress Filter is the most versatile automatic pressure filter available, anywhere. Pneumapress Filters are available in a variety of corrosion and heat resistant alloys. High performance Very high throughput per unit of filter area is achievable because of the fast filtration cycles. Pneumapress Filters produce Thick Dry Cakes and Clean Filtrate in as little as 60 seconds. A substantially higher production rate is a result of high particulate capture and short filtration cycles times. The same production rate of other filters is achieved with less filter area. Highly effective...

Clean filtrate • Pneumapress produces cleaner filtrate, reduces particle count, and improves clarity. Because the Pneumapress filters are simple, versatile, and almost free of consumable items, they can be suited to many applications, including specialized applications such as processing corrosive and/or high temperature streams. The filters produce dry and...

Sanitary Multi Module Filter Single Module Filter Design A very simple mechanical structure is used to support the filter. The structure is used to support the filter consisting of: Two columns, an upper and lower support beam and two base beams. Within the support structure are the filter plate(s) and a single hydraulic cylinder. The hydraulic cylinder is used to open and close the filter plate(s) and keep the plate(s) closed when the filtration process is in progress. Each filter plate consists of an upper and lower chamber with two layers of filter belt between the chambers. The two basic...

Laboratory and Pilot Testing We offer laboratory and pilot-scale testing for process evaluation and proper equipment sizing. A small sample of slurry or dirty liquid is tested in the lab for dewatering rate, cake solids, and filtrate quality. Alternatively, or to demonstrate Pneumapress technology, on-site pilot testing can be carried out at the customer's facility. The skid-mounted pilot filter, with all necessary appurtenances, is shipped to the customer's facility and Pneumapress technicians arrive to set-up the equipment and run the tests. Upon completion of sample testing, a report will...
