Pilot Scale Vacuum Filtration Unit

Custom-built vacuum filter for laboratory and pilot-scale hydrometallurgical test work.

Overview

The Pilot Scale Vacuum Filtration Unit is built for hydrometallurgical test work at vacuum filter stage. Material of construction, capacity and control configuration are matched to the feed chemistry rather than taken from a fixed catalogue.

FAQ

Can the Pilot Scale Vacuum Filtration Unit be customized?

Yes. Capacity, material of construction, heating method and control system are configured to your flowsheet. Send the process data and we confirm the feasible range.

What is the lead time?

Typically 4–8 weeks for lab units and 8–14 weeks for pilot units, depending on material availability. Confirmed at order.

Do you supply test data with the unit?

We supply the sizing calculation and, when a lab campaign is part of the order, the test report for the material you provided.
