Dry salt discharged from the Oberlin Filter in a crystallizer application.
Benefits of the Oberlin Filter in Demanding Applications
-
Easy Operation
-
The Oberlin Filter produces Clean Liquids allowing reuse of fluids and Dry Solids for reclamation or disposal
-
High efficiency removal of solids down to 1 micron
-
Fully automatic operation minimizes contact with hazardous materials
-
Self flushing & CIP options
-
Internal surfaces can be polished

-
Cake Washing and CIP Options
-
Includes all Necessary Valves and Pneumatics for Automatic Operation
-
Filter has Stainless Steel Enclosure for the Safety of Personnel
-
PLC Sequence Control
-
Electricals per Oberlin Standards or Customer Specifications
High or Low Solids / High Temp / High Corrosion
-
High Solids: Ability to process application if solids dewater easily, automatic indexing pressure filter is the logical choice for up to 50 ft3 of solids /hour
-
Low Solids: Ability to process these application as well = (10 to 10,000 PPM)
-
High Temperature: Applications up to 260 °F, Filter Platens can be heated to prevent freezing as well
-
High Corrosion: Filter external structures can be made entirely of 316 SS
-
Oberlin Filter’s Internal Wetted Structures can be made of corrosion resistant high Nickel alloys such as AL6XN, SMO254, C276 …
