Candle Filters/ Candle Filter System

The properties of the candle filter from Zonel Filtech:
a. The candle filters from Zonel FIltech with big flow volume, can filter directly, or coated first with cake filtration to improve the filter efficiency, widely used for cake recycling, liquid concentrating applications, and the cake can be washed before recycle them, with a much higher purity.
b. The candle filter was with PLC controlled, the filter procedures like the solution feeding, prefiltration, filtering, raffinate draining, reverse blow cake release, cake discharge and so on will be arranged automatically.
c. Suitable for high precision, high solid particles content, sticky solution filtration.
d. The filter element/ filter candles distance is adjustable according to the cake thickness requested.
e. The filter housing of the candle filter is highly sealed, suitable for corrosive or some dangerous solution treatment.
f. The candle filter With optimistic drying design, can meet various moisture content requirements from different clients.
g. The candle filter is static design, easy to maintenance
