Belt filter is designed for filtering fast-precipitating suspensions with non-uniform solid phase in chemical and other branches of industry.

Belt filters are reliable and efficient equipment for separation of solid/liquid phases, that is successfully used for dehydration of wide range of materials. The use of vaccum filtration presupposes low capital, operation outlays and maintenance expenses. Vacuum filtration exceeds traditional drum disk and tipping belt filters where high output, efficient washing and minimal dilution of filtrate are required.

Flight and other metal filter parts that contact initial product, filter cake, rinsing water, and products of filter fabric and band rinsing are made of corrosion-resistant steel. Vacuum chamber can be manufactured of high-molecular polyethylene (HDPE) or corroding steel. Design of vacuum chamber allows to rinse it in order to remove precipitation. Automatic adjustment of filter fabric movement prevents its lateral displacement and skewness. Discharge assembly is designed in coordination with customer depending on the existing premises and can be equipped with sampling equipment. Vacuum filter is provided with precipitation rinsing device across entire width with adjustment of rinsing liquid amount. On both sides of the filter steel rope for emergency stop is provided. All rotating parts are fenced.

FILTER IS DELIVERED TO OPERATION LOCATION DISASSEMBLED.

FILTER SERVICE LIFE IS 20 YEARS MINIMUM (EXCEPT FOR FAST-WEARING PARTS THAT REQUIRE PERIODIC REPLACEMENT.
