Rotary vacuum filter for wine filtration
In the winemaking industry, efficient filtration of grape must and recovery of liquid from dregs is crucial. These tasks can be challenging due to the need to maintain a homogeneous pre-cake suspension and minimize air intake, all while ensuring high output and low maintenance.
Enhance filtration efficiency and reduce air intake
The C 26 Rotary Vacuum Filter by Cadalpe is designed for cyclical processing with filter aiding precoat, featuring innovative solutions to optimize performance. The system effectively minimizes the unused portion of the filter, which significantly reduces air intake and increases the drying surface, resulting in higher output. Constructed entirely of stainless steel, it includes a hydrodynamic system to maintain a homogeneous pre-cake suspension and an electric reversible positive-displacement pump for pulp input. A submersed electric pump draws off the filtered fluid, while an impeller regulates pulp deposit on the drum surface. The thermostatic control ensures low water consumption for the vacuum pump’s liquid ring. This filter is particularly effective in the wine industry for filtering grape must in its natural state or after enzymatic treatment and for recovering the liquid part of dregs from decanting, centrifugal processing, and first racking.
