How to Select Filter Press Model?

There are various models of filter presses, and different models correspond to different sizes. Choosing the appropriate size can not only ensure efficiency but also reduce costs. But How to Choose Filter Press Model? If you want to choose the size of the filter press, you must first know the processing capacity and solid concentration, calculate the approximate filtration area of the filter press required, and then select the appropriate model according to the parameter table.

Calculating the size of a filter press based on processing capacity and solid content is a critical step in ensuring efficient operation. Here’s an example of how to perform this calculation:

First, confirm the processing capacity. Assume that the processing capacity per hour is 10m³ and the solid content is 3%. Then, the dry solid volume to be processed per hour is V=10m³/h*3%=300L. Assuming that it is filtered every hour, and then the volume of each filtration is 300L. The filter chamber volume of the filter press model XMY20/630-U is 300L, so you can choose this model or choose a bigger model XMY30/630-U.

The above methods are just conventional selection methods. If you need to consider filtration time, cycle time, maintenance, and cleaning time, it is safer to choose a larger filter press.
