Filtrability Press Test

Test and Analysis

DESCRIPTION

The compression apparatus is designed for laboratories filterability tests to determine drainage speeds dryness of pasty products (simulaon mechanical dewatering equipment: filter presses, belt filters, centrifuges, etc.).

APPLICATIONS

  • Determination of the specific resistance to filtration
  • Determination of the compressibility coefficients
  • Determination of dryness limits
  • Determination of drainage rates
  • Determination of liquid extraction rates

USES

The pulp / sludge sample to be tested is introduced into the pressure chamber of the apparatus, a pressure is applied to the sample for one determined me to extract liquids. Uses 70mm diameter paper filters. The operating pressure can be adjusted from 0 to 120 PSI. This unit meets the standards.
