ROTARY DRUM VACUUM FILTERS

The rotary drum vacuum filter has been a workhorse of the chemical process industry for many years. These large rotating drums are used to separate liquids and solids of all kinds. Half of the drum is submerged in the slurry, with the other half above it. The Filter Cloth or belt winds around the drum and as the drum rotates, the slurry is sucked into the cloth. As the drum rotates out of the slurry, the cake is dried by the vacuum pressure applied to the exposed section of the drum. The dried cake is discharged as the drum continues its rotation. We provide Filter Cloth in rolls or sheets cut to your specifications for rotary drum vacuum equipment of all types and models. Our quality Filter Cloth withstands the rigorous scraping process used to remove the dried cake. The type of cloth used depends on the material being processed. We also offer a knitted nylon backing fabric that can be used underneath the top cloth to provide a cushion and stability for the cloth as it moves through the Rotary Drum process. Browse through our Filter Cloth to determine which cloth would best suit your operation based on the properties and characteristics listed. Or, consult our expert technicians to see which cloth would work best for your application.
