An Actinic filter press is a tool used in the separation process specifically to separate solids and liquids. The process uses the principle of pressure drive, as provided by a slurry pump. Generally, the slurry that will be separated is injected into the center of the press and each chamber of the press is filled. Optimal filling time will ensure the last chamber of the press is loaded before the mud in the first chamber begins to cake. As the chambers fill, the pressure inside the system will increase due to the formation of thick sludge. Then, the liquid is strained through filter cloths by force.

Actinic Filter Presses are available as:

• Manual Presses.
• Hydraulic Presses.

Sizes with Actinic Presses available are:

12” x 12” 18” x 18” 24” x 24” 30” x 30” 36” x 36”
