The
pressure leaf filter is a long
proven system of pressure
filtration; more than 5000 units have
been sold by amafilter
worldwide.
A pressure leaf filter consists
of filter leaves each made up
from several layers of wire
mesh. The inner layer is a
coarse mesh for the discharge of
the filtrate and support of the
outer layers. Due to this unique
construction, no deposit of
filter-aid particles or
impurities is possible inside
the filter leaf as there is a
constant flow in the coarse mesh
and inside the tubular frame. A
minimum pressure drop inside the
leaves is guaranteed even at
high filtration rates. The
amafilter design has been
improved continuously over the
last 50 years |
