Product Description

Rotary Drum Filters

Filcon Rotary Drum Filters are designed to separate floating fines from coolant. These filters are particularly effective in removing aluminium chips that tend to remain suspended in coolant for long times. The Rotary Drum Filter can be directly connected to the machine outlet from where the chips with coolant discharge. The heavier chips are carried away by the integral scraper conveyor while the fine or light weight particles that do not settle are trapped by the rotary drum, which has fine stainless steel around it. After filtration, the coolant is collected in the integral clean coolant tank. The coolant jet diverted from the supply pump continuously cleans the drum and the scraper conveyor carries away the fine chips deposited on the drum. The system works on simple upward flow principle and is highly effective in handling floating chips like aluminium, brass, CI etc. Rotary Drum Filters are available in flow rates of 100 LPM to 1000 LPM. Systems can also be designed with one or more pumps with different flow rates and pressures to suit specific requirement.
