Membrane
Pleated
|
Broad
chemical compatibility (pH 3 to 14), increased alkaline stability, prolonged
service life resulting from increased surface area up to 0.75 m2/250
mm, complete separation of microparticles whose size exceeds the selected
pore size ensures excellent stable product quality. Only used as a final
filter in combination with effecttive prefiltration.

Membrane
Pleated
|
Broad
chemical compatibility (pH 1 to 14), long service life resulting from high
porosity, asymmetric structure of the membrane and increased surface area of
up to 0.75 m2/250 mm, multiple reconditioning, superior stable
product quality. Used only as a final filter in combination with an efficient
prefilter having a high dirt-holding capacity

Preparation of gaseous media (carbon dioxide, nitrogen, air, etc)
Preparation of gaseous media is carried out using multi-stage
filtration.
? Fine filter for removal of mechanical impurities (separation of oil,
dust and moisture).
? Adsorptive filter on the basis of active carbon for elimination of
odours.
? Sterilizing membrane filter for removal of microorganisms

Detailed information on technical and operating characteristics is
available on request.
The grade of DS-V (ДС-В) filter holder is selected depending on flow rate
and pressure in the filtration system
Configuration of filtration systems
Filtration assemblies
On
customer's request, Technofilter produces manually or automatically controlled
systems UPF.R or UPF.A (УПФ.Р or УПФ.А) on
the basis of multicartridge filter holders, designed for various flow rates
(0.5 to 16.0 m3/hour or more). Technofilter designs, fabricates and
assembles the systems in accordance with individual requirements of the
customer.
The systems
are compact, mobile and easy to operate. They can be installed permanently on a
specific position, on a frame or on a mobile carriage. The systems consist of
several filtration units, are completely assembled (pumping unit, measuring
equipment, control valves, piping, etc) and are ready for operation.
"Absolute-quality"
automatically controlled systems for the filtration of vodkas and alcoholic
beverages
Advantages
?
Steadily high quality of beverages
?
Optimum set of options, compact size
?
Smooth start-up, no hydraulic blows
?
Full exhaustion of service life of filter elements
?
Real-time control over all filtration parameters of filter elements
?
Reliable component parts
"Absolute-quality" systems make the
process of filtration extremely graphic, reliable and cost-efficient for the
customer. The user can have complete control over the process of filtration and
feel assured of the final product quality.
Functional capabilities:
? The automatic unit ensures adjustment of the filtration system to any
filling line (having mechanical, electromagnetic or pneumatic valve)
? Operator's touchpad for real-time control over all filtration
parameters
? Automatic control devices provide optimum conditions for operation of
filter elements (smooth start-up, no hydroblows)
? Automatic control of differential pressure at each filtration stage
rules out the possibility of mechanical destruction of the filter package in
the course of its plugging
? Automatic devices make it possible to use a more powerful pump which
ensures complete exhaustion of the service life of filter elements
? The automatic system having PI regulator maintains a preset pressure
of the product at the output of the assembly
? The use of a bypass line in combination with a shock absorber makes
it possible not only to suppress hydroblows, but also to rule out any sharp
pressure surges in the filters and at the output of the assembly
? The filtration system makes it possible to clean filter elements of
micronaps in a closed loop. Learn more (2,75 MB)
