A Vertical Pressure Leaf Filter operates as a closed system where the slurry is pumped into a vertical cylindrical vessel containing multiple vertical filter leaves. Under pressure, solids are retained on the filter media while clear filtrate passes through. Once filtration is complete, solids are discharged either dry or as a slurry.
Built with stainless steel (SS304, SS316, SS316L) or carbon steel, the filter is robust, corrosion-resistant, and easy to operate. It eliminates the need for filter cloth replacement and ensures hygienic, dust-free operation.

A Vertical Pressure Leaf Filter is an industrial filtration system used for efficient solid-liquid separation in a closed, dust-free environment.
Slurry is pumped into the vessel under pressure, solids are trapped on filter leaves, and clear liquid passes through, providing high-quality filtrate.
They are widely used in pharmaceutical, chemical, edible oil, food, beverage, and industrial processing.
It is ideal for filtering oils, syrups, solvents, resins, catalysts, and chemical intermediates.
Key benefits include large filtration area, compact design, hygienic operation, and low maintenance costs.
Yes, our filters are designed to meet cGMP and ASME standards, making them suitable for pharmaceutical and food industries.
