Centrifugal Pressure Filter-CPF
Centrifugal pressure filter (CPF) is a filtration system that uses centrifugal force to separate solids from liquids. This system consists of a filter chamber, a rotating impeller, and a screw conveyor to continuously remove the settled solids.
The filter chamber is commonly made of polypropylene, acrylic, or stainless steel. The impeller is attached to a motorized shaft and rotates a drum containing a filter media. The media can be any type of filter material such as filter paper, mesh, or activated carbon. As the impeller rotates, the filter media will remove the impurities from the liquid, leaving behind the solid particles. The impurities are discharged from the vessel and collected in a container outside the filter chamber.
CPF systems can also be fitted with a solids-recovery system. This system is attached to the end of the filter chamber and consists of a screw conveyor to collect and transport the collected solids to a receiving container. The solids-recovery system is a convenient way to ensure that the collected impurities are removed from the filter chamber quickly and efficiently.
The CPF system is ideal for the removal of suspended particles, emulsified solids, and bacteria from a variety of process liquids. It is especially suited for applications involving chemicals, precious metals, petroleum-based products, organic solvents, food and beverages, ultrafiltration, and microfiltration.
CPF systems are designed to operate with low pressure drop and low energy consumption. They are easy to operate, maintain, and repair. The simple design and robust construction of the components make it an ideal solution for harsh industrial applications. In addition, CPF systems require minimal space and are easy to install.
The CPF system provides an effective and efficient way to filter solids from process liquids. They can handle a variety of flow rates and can be customized for specific applications. The simple design, low energy consumption, and maintenance-free operation of the system make it an economical choice for industrial and commercial processes.
