About This Product
A pressure leaf filter holds a set of filter leaves inside a closed pressure shell. The liquid is pushed through the leaves, solids build up as a cake on the leaf surfaces and the clear liquid leaves as filtrate. The cake is then discharged by vibration or a spray without opening the filter from the top. Filters of this type are listed for the edible oil, beverage, chemical, pharma and petrochemical industries, and the same filtration principle is covered in chemical engineering courses. School Lab Equipment India can export the Pressure Leaf Filters to education buyers in Guinea-Bissau, Armenia, Lebanon, Portugal and Madagascar.
