General Description

A typical unit comprises a dish-shaped vessel with a perforated plate. The vessel's temperature can be precisely maintained using a jacketed design and a stirrer (featuring a blade and shaft) through which heat transfer media circulate.

The vessel is fully sealed to ensure it remains leak-proof, making it suitable for both vacuum and pressure applications. The base plate is equipped with a bolting bar to secure the filter cloth in place.

Various nozzles can be incorporated, including a maintenance hole and a side discharge nozzle. PTFE-lined stirrers are used for the agitator shaft, while solid PTFE blades handle high torque during solid discharge and re-slurrying operations.

Process Steps for the Agitated Nutsche Filter with Agitator and Discharge Valve:-

Filtration Process: Achieve precise solid-liquid separation with advanced filtration technology.

Thorough Washing of Filter Cake: Improve purity by effectively washing residual impurities from the filter cake.

Repeat Mixing & Washing Cake: Optimize washing cycles to ensure complete removal of contaminants.

Uniform Drying with Convection: Accelerate drying of the filter cake using controlled convection techniques.

Cake Compression & Smoothing: Improve cake density and uniformity with efficient compression methods.

Discharge of Wet or Dry Cake: Easily discharge processed cake in wet or dry form for further use.

The drive assembly features a high-performance motor with a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) for precise speed control. A robust mechanical seal ensures optimal vacuum application, enhancing efficiency. The borosilicate glass vessel includes multiple nozzles for versatile operation. The system is equipped with a manual or hydraulic mechanism for smooth agitator movement and efficient discharge through the valve.

Additionally, a PTFE Filter Support Plate improves filtration efficiency. Designed for industrial applications, this system ensures optimal performance, durability, and chemical resistance.

What is an Agitated Glass Nutsche Filter?

An Agitated Glass Nutsche Filter (ANF) is a pressure-driven filtration system that facilitates solid-liquid separation under vacuum or pressure. It is widely used in industries requiring safe and contamination-free processing of sensitive materials.

Equipped with an agitator, this system improves cake washing and drying, making it superior to conventional Nutsche Filters. The Agitated Nutsche Filter Dryer (ANFD) further enhances drying efficiency, minimizing product loss and reducing processing time.

Key Features of Agitated Glass Nutsche Filter

Corrosion Resistance: The glass-lined construction ensures resistance to highly corrosive chemicals and solvents.

High-Quality Glass Construction: Ensures corrosion resistance and enables visual process monitoring.

Multi-Step Processing: Allows filtration, washing, and drying in the same unit, reducing handling and contamination risks.

Agitator Mechanism: Improves efficiency in slurry filtration, cake washing, and drying.

Vacuum & Pressure Filtration: Can operate under both vacuum and pressure conditions for optimal performance.

Seamless Glass-Lined Surface: Offers chemical resistance and prevents material degradation.

Temperature Resistance: Suitable for a wide range of temperatures, making it ideal for pharmaceutical and chemical industries.

Easy Discharge System: Facilitates smooth product removal with minimal waste.

Multiple Sizes Available: Customizable to meet different process requirements.

Hygienic Design: Complies with GMP and FDA standards, ensuring product purity.

Automated Operation: Advanced control systems for seamless, automated operation with minimal manual intervention.

Agitated Nutsche Filter Working Principle

The agitated nutsche filter working principle involves several key stages:

1. Slurry Introduction: The slurry containing solid-liquid mixtures is introduced into the vessel.

2. Filtration: Vacuum or pressure is applied, and the liquid phase passes through the filter plate, leaving behind the solid cake.

3. Washing: The agitator moves to redistribute the solids, allowing efficient solvent washing of the filter cake.

4. Drying: The agitator helps mix and expose the solids to drying conditions under vacuum or nitrogen purge.

5. Discharge: The dried solid is removed through the bottom discharge valve, ensuring complete product recovery.
