Improve your liquid product quality with continuous removal of contamination.
Designed for optimum cleaning to meet the demands of the food and pharmaceutical industries.
A self-cleaning filter for liquids up to 250°C (480F) safeguarding your operators without jeopardizing your final product quality.
High flow self-cleaning strainers achieving flow rates of up to 200,000 l/hr (50,000 g/hr).
Removing operator involvement, providing automation by continuously monitoring the filtration process.
These filters are designed to remove oversize and contamination from liquids. The mechanism of the automatic filter allows liquid to be filtered through the machine in a continuous flow, while the mechanical scrapers on the inside of the filter removes oversize materials. These industrial filters work by utilizing a wiper system on the inside of the filter to continuously remove and discharge oversize and contamination. The SpiroKlene™ wiper system is a cylindrical filter element that rotates and cleans the inside of the filter, simultaneously pushing good material through the screen and moving contamination down to be collected and discharged.
These filters continuously remove contamination, with the discharge of the collected debris being manual or automated. The automatic filtration process involves the Russell Filter Management System™ which releases the valve automatically, allowing the process to be fully operator free. The inline filtration system becomes fully automatic with the connecting pipes continuously filtering and discharging the liquids.
The mesh inside of these filters can be as fine as 15 microns without compromising flow rates and end-quality. These filters can filter out fine contamination and agglomerates from difficult liquids such as high-temperature and high-viscosity products.
Russell Finex's self-cleaning filters primarily benefit a variety of industries such as food and pharmaceuticals, coatings and adhesives, water and resins, industrial wash water reuse, paint binder production, and more. For instance, Mondelēz, a multinational confectionery, food, and beverage conglomerate, improved their production process by recovering liquid caramel using Russell Finex's industrial filter. Another example is Angus Fire, a global leader in firefighting technology, which managed to cut costs and reduce production downtime with the help of Self-Cleaning Russell Eco Filter.
Self-cleaning filters typically work by continuously removing contamination and oversize materials from the liquid products. This ongoing process helps to maintain the quality of the filtered product and ensures that the filtration process is not interrupted by the need for frequent manual cleaning or replacement of filter elements. The Self-Cleaning Russell Eco Filter, for example, has been used in various industries to increase productivity by replacing traditional bag or cartridge filters.
