V-Sep Static Screen

The V-SEP static screen is the most simple and effective filter for filtration of free flowing and non-sticky solids. It is a completely static unit with continuous filtration and consumes no power. The filter uses the welded wedge wire filter element, which works on surface filtration principle. The filtration rating from this filter can be as low as 50 microns. The two version of the filter are available based on the liquid & solid characteristic i.e. gravity flow type or high Pressure tangential flow type. The filter element which is fixed in curvature gives an ideal cutting effect to the liquid when it flows over the surface.

In Tangential flow type the liquid is pumped to the filter inlet and the high pressure nozzles spray the liquid for a tangential entry onto the screen. In Gravity flow type the liquid enters the equipment from the inlet nozzle, fills & over flow from top of the element. The liquid passes through the screen because of the cutting effect and the unfiltered solids remains on the screen. As a operation continues the unfiltered solid slide down on the screen & can be collected from the bottom in a bin or through conveyor.
 

Advantages

Attendant free unit for continuous filtration (no labour requirement).
No power consumption in gravity flow
Uses non-clogging, high filtration area element
Does not have any moving parts
Have low maintenance and negligible operating cost.
Reduces the load on the clarifier, thus increasing its efficiency.
Precise separation of solids as low as 50 microns.
