Agitated Nutsche Filter Dryer (ANFD)

Agitated filter is a cylindrical closed vessel designed to separate solid and liquid by filtration under pressure or vacuum. The advanced technology of agitation and hydraulics both are used in the equipment makes it versatile and user friendly. The wet cake reslurried and washed properly with water or solvents. Agitated nutsche filter dryer used in chemical, agrochemical, pharma and food industry. The ANFD is functionally safe and easy to operate. It can carry out different phase of process operation such as filtration, crystallization, extraction, discoloration, washing and Drying.

The ANFD Consists of cylindrical shell with top side dish and bottom side welded flat as per pressure vessel code. The stiffened support the welded flat and support mesh is provided under filter cloth to facilitate the flow of filtrate. Nozzle and Manhole also provide in the top dish and shell side discharge. valve also provided. The 'S' Shaped stirrer blades are mounted on the shaft. We also provide accessories of ANFD Such as Hydraulic Cylinder, Guide rod with bush, Hydraulic discharge valve, hydraulic Power pack, Control panel board etc.

Cladded Material

Key Features

Operation method is totally enclosed, neat and hygienic.
Enable easy non manual and automatic cake/solid discharge..
The unit designed is minimum maintenance features.
Equipment easy to operate and safe.
Minimum hold up of filtrate in the equipment.
Agitator moves clockwise, anticlockwise, Up and down.
Heat transfer surface provided on the vessel wall by proving Jacket or limpet coil.
Large quantities can be processed faster than the conventional system.

Key Features

Clock wise rotation: Smoothing cake surface and compacting it during filtration.
Anticlockwise rotation: For stirring near filter media to keep it clear of sedimentation, re-slurring while washing and atomized discharging.
Upward movements: Operated by hydraulic cylinders at constant speed to assist mixing,
Downward movements: Operated by hydraulic cylinders variable speed to assist squeezing and discharge.

Discharge Arrangment

Hydraulic Discharge Valve: The plug type discharge valve provided to near the filter plate on the shell side. Valve designed as per requirements - metal to metal and polymer sealing, quick open/close door.

Hydraulic Cylinder

A hydraulic cylinder is a mechanical actuator that is used to give a unidirectional force through a unidirectional stroke. You can use hydraulic cylinder for up & down movement of agitator stirrer.

Hydraulic Power Pack

It has multiple functions such as -
Discharge valve for labour free cake removal. 2. Lowering and lifting the agitator.
Driving the agitator, when hydraulic motor used.
Lowering and lifting the agitator.

Panel Board

Panel board is a component of an electricity supply system that divides an electrical power feed into subsidiary circuits, while providing a protective fuse or circuit breaker for each circuit in a common enclosure.
