BKG® HiCon R-Type 250 TM Recycling Filter for Highly Contaminated Applications Discription Principle: Separation in a continuous filtration process Medium to highly contaminated plastic melt Polymers from the family of olefins and styrenes Applications: Recycling Operation The contaminated melt flows through the fixed, cylindrical strainer tube from the inside out. The micro-conical holes provide efficient filtration of contaminated melt. The contaminants are separated from the melt and then scraped by a rotating blade shaft from the surface of the strainer tube. The cooled discharge screw removes the collected contaminants from the machine out. The speed of the blade shaft/discharge screw can be adjusted depending on the throughput, contaminat level and discharge rate, thus ensuring a continuous working process with a clean, open filtration area with low melt loss. Technical Product Information Operating pressure Operating temperature Available strainer tubes Preparation material PS, PE, PP, ABS, SAN Conical micro-holes prevent use by particles * The throughput values are only estimates. The actual rates are dependent upon the viscosity of the material, filtration fineness, application and the contamination level of the material; therefore, the values may differ depending upon the actual process parameters. Fully automatic self-cleaning Cylindrical, fixed strainer tubes Homogeneous cleaning by a variety adjustable scraper blades Autonomous control included heating control Hardware: Siemens Simatic SPS and HMI Analysis of melt pressure and temperature included in the standard delivery (incl. sensor) Optional recording of process data and remote maintenance Minimal melt loss Robust and low-wear design Constant melt pressure behind the filter No outlet side; minimum pressure required User-friendly handling: independent strainer tube can easily be changed by the operator Low operating costs through long service life and regeneration ability of the filter media No edge f
