Features And Operational Dynamics Of Compact Band Filter

Enter the world of industrial filters and you will be surrounded with myriad options related to different applications. In the liquid filtration technology, you will come across general as well as customized options directed towards achieving an effective and economic solution. One of the pioneering developments in filtration technology is the compact band filter, which finds usage in fine coolant filtration used in grinding, gun drilling, component washing, and honing applications. It is an upgraded version of the paper type filtering media. The USP of this product is offering of the required pressure for the fluid to traverse through the filter media.

Competitive Edges And Features of Compact Band Filter:
• Big energy savings
• No requirement of big floor space for installation
• No external pressure required
• Completely automatic in operation; no manual handling required
• Compared to the paper type, it forms deeper trough
• Compared to paper type, it requires lesser area for same fluid flow
• High in throughput and filtration efficiency
• Lower operating cost given less consumption of paper
• Without affecting performance, it is flexible to adopt different coolant
• Hazard-free and environment friendly.

The filter paper in the compact band filter is held between a pair of a permeable support belt and sealing discs. Its high hydrostatic head facilitates high filtration activity. The trough formed with filter paper at the bottom traps the dirty fluid. The dirt is left behind while the fluid passes and finer filtration is achieved. The product, mounted on top of the tank, allows clean fluid into the tank, leading to choking of the paper and rising of fluid level above it. During the process, the dirty paper is automatically put into the bin and clean paper pulled in from the roll.
