   Selection Guide for Vertical Plate Filters

Top of PageVF Vertical Plate Filter
The VF vertical tank vertical plate filter is used where floor space is limited. For dry cake discharge the bottom has a cone with a valve or a bottom drop door. For wet cake discharge, the cake is dislodged with a sluice header and discharged through the drain.

The MCRO mounted cover, horizontal retractable tank, overhead supported filter is the answer for high volume, heavy duty applications like mining, commodity chemicals, vegetable oils, sugar refining and waste or recycle water. No piping disconnects are required to open the filter.

The transplate sluice operates with the lowest wash volume per square foot of area for high efficiency and rapid cleaning.
