Thanks to the four-eye design of the filter plate, this classic sheet filter achieves optimum inflow behavior and thus ensures efficient use of the filter sheets. The SF 400/600 B is mainly used for beer filtration. However, it is also frequently used as a wine filter or juice filter – with a filter sheet or as a diatomaceous earth (DE) filter.
The SF 400 B or SF 600 B provides excellent filtration results.
The range of different SF deep-bed filter sheets provides a tremendous amount of flexibility.
With the diversion chamber, multi-stage filtration is possible without any problems.
Similar to a filter press, a filter pack is arranged in a rack between a “fixed lid” and a “loose lid.” Depending on the type of filtration, this filter pack can consist of filter plates or a combination of filter plates and filter frames. The filter sheets are placed between the filter elements, which are clamped together between the fixed cover and loose cover. The fixed cover is connected to the crosshead by means of connecting and traction bars. The filter pack is pressed together with the filter sheets via a pressing device integrated in the crosshead.

All fittings and the drip tray are made of stainless steel.
The sheet filters are available as a mobile version on wheels or stationary on leveling feet.
The standard material is SS 304 stainless steel. However, the sheet filter is also available in SS 316L stainless steel.
