GN Filter Press Cloth

A filter press is a piece of equipment used in liquid/solid separation. Specifically, the filter press separates the liquids and solids using pressure filtration, wherein a slurry is pumped into the filter press and is dewatered under pressure. Basically, each filter press is designed based on the volume and type of slurry that needs to be dewatered. Micronics, Inc. is a trusted expert in liquid/solid separation and offers a wide range of filter press types and capacities to suit specific application needs for trouble-free, economical dewatering. These include configurations such as sidebar automatic, manual overhead, automatic dual overhead beam, stainless steel clad, explosion proof filter presses, vacuum filter presses, and hand filter presses.

Fabric TypeCharacteristics
PolypropyleneOffers good tensile strength and abrasion resistance. They perform well in organic and mineral acids, solvents and alkalies. Polypropylene is attacked by nitric and chlorosulphonic acids, sodium and potassium hydroxide at high temperatures and concentrations.
Polyester NeedlefeltOffers good resistance to most acids, oxidizing agents and organic solvents. Concentrated sulfuric and nitric acids are the exception. Polyesters are dissolved by alkalies at high concentrations.
NomexResist attack by mild acids, mild alkalies, and most hydrocarbons. Resistance to sulfur oxides above the acid dew point at temperatures above 300°F is better than polyester. Flex resistance is excellent.
