Filter technology

What is filtered?

Imagine you find a stone in your soup, or you bite into your favorite chocolate with relish and suddenly come across a foreign object.
You want to coat your specialty paper and there are undissolved particles in the dispersion.
You want to cool your heat exchangers with seawater, but often have interruptions in operation because the plate coolers are repeatedly clogged.
You invest in a modern heating oil system to “dispose” of used oil and the burner nozzles often become clogged with 1 mm holes.

To prevent this from happening, Hablützel filters are used in a wide variety of industries:

Food industry

– Chocolate
– Ice cream
– Honey
– Vegetable preparation

Water / waste water

– Seawater, river water
– before reverse osmosis
– Cooling water, process water

Petrochemistry

– Optical brightener
– Catalyst recovery

Petrochemistry

– Bitumen
– Waste oils
– Gasoline

Chemistry

– Dispersions
– Colors
– Adhesives / glues

Edge slit filter
Type KSF

Application
The robust, easy-to-maintain Hablützel edge gap filter with motorized self-cleaning is suitable for the separation and continuous separation of suspensions and for the continuous separation of solid particles from liquid streams of various viscosities (water-thin to pasty). It therefore offers a wide range of applications in the field of process engineering. It is most frequently used in the production of foodstuffs (chocolate), chemicals (including ATEX) and water management.

How it works
The liquid flows through the filter basket and solid particles on the outside of the filter basket are immediately removed by the continuously rotating cleaning device. This keeps the pressure drop to a minimum. The filtered particles collect in the conical lower part of the housing and can be emptied periodically by hand or automatically. At higher system pressure, the residues are removed through an airlock.
Our filters are available in various sizes, with or without a heating jacket and are made of stainless steel. They have been used successfully around the world for over 30 years.

Automatic backwash filter
Type ARF

Application
The robust, easy-to-maintain automatic backwash filter with motorized self-cleaning has several filter elements in the housing and is used for continuous water filtration.

Functionality
The liquid flows through the filter baskets from the inside to the outside and solid particles are retained on the inside of the filter baskets. If the filter becomes clogged, there is a pressure difference between the filter inlet and the filter outlet. The rotating cleaning device then flushes the solid particles downwards by means of backwashing. Of course, operation is not interrupted by the cleaning process.

Our filters are available in various sizes and are made of stainless steel. They have been used successfully around the world for over 30 years.
