The technology behind the Dorr-Oliver Vacuum Drum Filter
The Dorr-Oliver Vacuum Drum Filter has high capacity, and runs very efficiently to create excellent filtrate clarity and effectively wash cakes.
The drum filter’s basic operating principle is easy. Everything happens during one revolution of the drum: with filter cake forming, cake drying, filtrate discharge and cake discharge for continuous production. The filtration area on the drum surface is divided into separate cells, connected by individual pipes to a vacuum system.
Filtrate piping can be arranged outside or inside of the drum. The drum deck, equipped with replaceable filter grids, supports the filter medium (cloth made from fabric or metal).
