Smart Filter Press

The next generation of filter presses: fully automatic self cleaning filter. Flowrox Smart Filter Press™ (SFP) is a sophisticated little giant reaching up to 10 times higher capacity compared to conventional recessed filter presses of the same size. Flowrox Smart Filter Press has various new and innovative features including fully automatic cake discharge and trouble-free operation without operator involvement. Unique design of this sludge filter press has integrated smart self-monitoring system. This makes the SFP filter the safest and the least labour demanding automatic filter press at the market.

Applications for Flowrox Smart Filter Press:

Flue gas desulfurization
Chemical applications
Process water recycling in:

• Metal finishing
• Electrochemical machining (ECM)
• Concrete recycling
• Industrial effluent treatment
• Municipal sludge dewatering

New degree of automatic operation

• Automatic filter press – all stages of operation are fully automated.
• Unmanned availability above 98 %, only periodical inspections required.
• For safety and performance, sludge filter press is equipped with several error detecting functions.
• Optionally with Flowrox Malibu™ online portal for remote monitoring and performance analysis.

Flowrox Smart Filter Press runs self-diagnostic in each filtration cycle, making it fully automatic self cleaning filter.

Clean and safe

Filtration with gasketed filter plates behind enclosed and interlocked doors:

• No slurry sprays.
• No human contact with filter cakes or fumes.
• No operator involvement near moving parts.

Self-diagnostic in each filtration cycle:

• Leak-testing before each filtration cycle ensures cleanliness of the filter in traditionally dirty applications.

Low maintenance and low environmental impact

• Gentle and optimised process cycle minimises consumption of utilities as well as amount of required wear & spare parts.
• Advanced washing system provides extra mileage for filter clothes.
• Automated failure analyses support preventative maintenance.
• Advanced diagnostics and remote support enhance troubleshooting.
