Agitated Nutsche Filter Dryer

Agitated Nutsche Filter Dryer is a cylindrical, vertical closed vessel made as per pressure vessel code. The vessel is fitted with plane filter media, either metallic or synthetic at the lower end of the vessel. Specially designed, slow speed, robust agitator assembly is mounted on vessel. The agitator design adopted is advanced and unique to this system. The "S" type self centering blades are made from heavy sections to handle liquid as well as solids. It has four movements; each movement, either single or in combination is designed to carry out specific operations.

1. Clockwise rotation
For smoothening cake surface and compacting it during filtration.

2. Anticlockwise rotation
For stirring near filter media to keep it clear of sedimentation and automated discharging.

3.Upward movement
Operated by hydraulic cylinders at constant speed to assist mixing.

4.Downward movement
Operated by hydraulic cylinders with variable speed to assist squeezing and discharging.

1.Discharge valve operation for labour-free cake removal.

2.Lowering and lifting the Agitator

3.Lowering the detachable bottom when provided.

The above features along with precision in manufacturing give excellent process control viz filtering,spreading, compacting,reslurring,discharging and drying

Plug type side discharge valve is provided near the filter plate.
Designed as per customer requirements:

- Metal to Metal sealing.
