Rubber belt filter
The rubber belt filter of type BFR is a continuously operating, horizontal vacuum filter used for the reliable separation of quickly sedimenting solids from suspensions. It is characterized by high throughput rates and a robust design. Cake treatment involving one or more washing stages is possible.
The rubber belt filter (BFR) for efficient separation of fly ash and washing water
ERZ Entsorgung + Recycling Zurich produces 5,000 tons of fly ash per year, which is continuously washed out. To efficiently separate the fly ash suspension from the washing water, ERZ is using the fully automatic, heavy-duty rubber belt filter (BFR) from BHS-Sonthofen.
Durability
The BHS rubber belt filter stand out thanks to its robust construction that specifically addresses typical applications. A firm supporting structure made of steel or stainless steel allows this system to be used even in harsh environments. BHS rubber belt filters are designed for a long service life under heavy load. This minimizes both maintenance and operating costs.
Low maintenance requirements
Due to the small number of individual parts installed, a rubber belt support in the form of a roller table and optimum accessibility to the vacuum box, the rubber belt filter is extremely resistant to wear and easy to service. Robust systems for belt support and belt guidance result in a long service life and reduced maintenance times.
