FILPROSAFilter startup and troubleshooting
We commission new filters and fix difficult startups that have not stabilized, on any brand of equipment.
What does a filter startup include?
Checking the installation, preparing and forming the precoat, adjusting filter aid dosing and operating parameters, and training the staff until the filter runs steadily and within specification.
Equipment we start up
- Rotary vacuum filters with precoat, in continuous operation.
- Pressure filters, leaf and plate type.
- Continuous and batch systems for syrups and beverages.
- Della Toffola and other brands.
When a startup will not stabilize
That is our specialty. We diagnose the cause, run trials and adjust precoat, dosing and operation until the equipment performs. Manufacturers and plants call us when a startup gets complicated.
Problems we solve
- Precoat that does not form or sloughs off.
- Hazy filtrate at the start of the cycle.
- Differential pressure rising too fast.
- Cake that does not discharge completely.
- Excessive filter aid consumption.
