As compared to other continuous filtration process HPLFs offer simplicity of process, easy operation and maintenance, modest space requirement & low energy consumption. 

The horizontal pressure leaf filters are classified as how filter is opened for cleaning.

1. Shell retraction: filter body/shell is retracted back while head and leaf bundle is stationery.

2. Leaf bundle retraction: in this type filter head and leaf bundle moves while opening.

Equipment Description

The horizontal leaf filter (shell retraction) consist of a horizontal cylindrical vessel with special bonnet wedged lock closure & neoprene seal. The retractable filter shell is mounted on 4 external mounted wheel assemblies and retraction is accomplished by hydraulic cylinders complete with hydraulic power pack. The hydraulic cylinders are connected to power pack by high-pressure flexible rubber hoses/s.s. tubing.

All nozzle connections are mounted on fixed head of filter vessel & to open & close the filter vessel, during cake discharge no connections have to be disconnected. To avoid opening under pressure, appropriate interlocking is provided, if process demands.

Horizontal pressure leaf filters (HPLF) are designed for high flow rates and batch operation. HPLF are used when the filter cake is sticky and difficult to remove. Horizontal pressure leaf filters are specially designed for filtration of wax in edible oils.
