It is a manually operated filter press designed for solid-liquid separation and dewatering of sludge. It uses filter plates and cloths to trap solids and discharge filtrate, providing an effective mechanical dewatering solution for various industries.
Manual operation means the opening, closing and plate compression are performed by hand via a mechanical mechanism (e.g., hand screw or lever) rather than by electric or hydraulic power. Filtration cycles and cake discharge are also initiated and handled manually.
No. The product specifications list voltage and power as 0, indicating the basic unit operates without electrical power. Optional accessories (e.g., feed pumps, screwdrivers or hydraulic helpers) may require power if added.
The machine's listed dimensions are 2250 x 1080 x 1060 mm (L x W x H) and the weight is 1257 kg.
It is suitable for a wide range of sludges including municipal wastewater sludge, food processing sludge, mineral and mining sludge, construction sludge, and many chemical or pharmaceutical slurries. Performance depends on feed solids concentration and sludge characteristics.
Cake dryness depends on the type of sludge, feed concentration, conditioning (polymer dosing), and operating technique. Typical cake moisture ranges can be roughly 30–70% under normal conditions; exact results should be confirmed via a site trial.
The standard machine is heavy-duty steel construction for durability. Corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel components or protective coatings, are commonly available as options for corrosive or sanitary applications.
The unit uses replaceable filter plates and filter cloths suitable for dewatering. Different plate styles, sizes and cloth materials (polypropylene, polyester, etc.) are available and are replaceable for wear or to suit different applications.
Due to its compact footprint, the machine can be transported by forklift or crane depending on packaging. Install on a flat, level foundation capable of supporting the 1257 kg weight. Basic mechanical anchoring and access for feed and filtrate piping are required.
Routine maintenance includes inspecting and cleaning filter cloths and plates after each run, checking frame bolts and closing mechanism for wear, lubricating moving parts per supplier guidance, and replacing worn cloths or plates as needed.
Yes — the specification notes that engineers are available to service machinery overseas. Contact the supplier to arrange installation, commissioning or maintenance support.
Operators should wear appropriate PPE (gloves, eye protection), ensure the machine is secured and stable, avoid putting hands between plates during operation, follow lockout/tagout procedures if using powered accessories, and follow supplier safety instructions.
Yes. Common customizations include plate size and count, cloth material, frame coating or stainless construction, and optional powered feed or plate-closing systems. Contact the supplier with your process details for a tailored solution.
The supplier lists a supply ability of 1000 sets per month. Lead time varies by order size, customization and current factory load—contact the supplier for a specific delivery estimate for your order.
Warranty terms are not listed in the basic spec; typically suppliers offer warranty and spare parts packages. Ask the supplier for warranty details, recommended spare parts (filter cloths, plates, seals) and pricing when ordering.
