Horizontal Pressure Leaf Filters & Vertical Pressure Leaf Filters With A Broad Range Of Pressure Leaves For Batch Operations With High Flow Rate Capability

Durco Pressure Leaf Filter Range

Durco Pressure Leaf Filters are available in either wet cake (sluicing) or dry cake (vibrating) discharge models, and are designed for high flow rates and batch operation typically in applications with 2% solids loadings. Higher solids loadings (~6%) are possible depending on the specific application.

Durco Pressure Leaf Filters are available in 2 configurations with respect to their tank orientation:

Durco Pressure Leaf Filters can accomodate a wide variety of available filter leaf media to suit your process requirements:

Semi-Automatic Pressure Leaf Filters feature a central control panel for sequence step activation. The various pump drives, agitator drives and valves are automatically activated to the required mode for the process step

Fully Automated Pressure Leaf Filters feature either touch-screen programmers or programmable controllers, which are used to ensure that each process step is activated automatically. Flow rate and turbidity may, if required, be monitored. Various options are available such as main panel graphics, manual overrides, alarms, remote terminal boxes, station wiring and completely piped and wired skid-mounted systems

Pressure Leaf Filter General Applications

Durco Pressure Leaf Filters are ideal for batch process applications requiring high flow rates (up to 2,000 gpm per unit) with low solids removal.

This Durco DHC Pressure Leaf Filter With Diatomaceous Earth Pre-Coat & Admix System has provided sub-micron filtration of amine in hydrocarbon desulfurization service since the 1980's. Each Durco Filter unit is a self-cleaning, closed system that limits personnel exposure to H2S and amines.
