Filtres Philippe introduced one of the earliest horizontal vacuum belt filters to the marketplace in 1948. Since that time, we've continued to innovate to offer our clients systems designed for longevity and reliability, while always keeping cost-effectiveness in mind. Designed for the separation of liquids and solids, while allowing for a continuous filtration process. Can be used for up to a very high concentration of solids, while also offering the ability of efficiently washing the filtrate cake if required. Unique innovative solutions allow an increase in washing efficiencies and filtration parameters. This coupled with a 98% operating factor provides optimum productivity and material recover rate. The ultimate result is increased profits for you. Filter frame: bolted, not welded, which allows for quick change out of the drainage belt with minimal disassembly. Factory-spliced main belt: machined and grooved in our factory to avoid field-splicing problems which could delay equipment start-up.
