Up to 144 m² filtration area
Near absolute vacuum operating pressure
Up to 88% less energy usage compared to Scanmec vacuum filter
Typical process sizing 1000 kg/m²
Capillary action within the micropores creates a high suction that causes cake formation on the disc surface and ensures an extremely clear filtrate.
- Prevents air penetrating the wet filter plate
- Requires very low energy consumption – typically less than 0.5 kW/m²
- Achieves a high vacuum level (0.95 bar at sea level) due to low air leakage
- Results in over 95% availability and optimally low operating costs
