The DISCSTAR™ H is available for 16” double open ended mo-
dules with flat gaskets (DOE). It is a highly precise stainless steel
filter housing for filter modules, developed and manufactured for
everyday use. The enclosed system enables depth filtration to be
carried out without drip loss.
Compared to standard vertical housings the DISCSTAR™ H is turned
into a horizontal position. On one side there is a closure head
through which the filter modules are loaded. The opening of the lid
is supported by a gas-pressurized spring . To ensure a proper com-
pression of the module stack, a compression force can be applied
from the outside. No crane is needed to open the housing. Venting
valve, sight glass, pipework and instrumentation are permanently
installed. An optional residual filter can be installed to minimize the
dead volume. The horizontal design allows a much easier and time
saving operation.
The DISCSTAR™ H housing is much safer to operate and easier to
handle due to an economic chest working height and easy loading
and disposing of the modules.
Benefits
– Easy replacement of modules / no need of crane or other
lifting devices
– Easy spent module removal and transportation
– Easier to fill especially for modules with open filter media
– Saves working time because of better accessibility of modules
– Smaller footprint / reduce overall height compare to vertical
design
– No product loss due to optionally integrated residual filter
– Ergonomic chest high operation
– Pipework away from the operator section
– Permanent vent valve pipework, sight glass and
instrumentation
