Filters and filter cartridges

Fossil meal is the most commonly used filtration aid due to its great filtering properties and is composed of mineral residues from microscopic algae. It is a very light powder of white or pink color and has a wide range of porosity that allows to vary the filtration of wines by virtue of their glazing. There are various types of fossil flour: roughing, clarifying and shining. It is distinguished, therefore, by its porosity (up to 93%), its low density (0.3 g/cm3) and the enormous development of its surface area (12/40 m2/g). The flour filter with horizontal discs has the following technical characteristics: built in stainless steel AISI 304, manual discharge of the flour, internal filtration of the residue (external on request), stainless steel dosing pump with dosing pump and agitator, product pump in stainless steel.

The housing filters allow the elimination of yeast cells, bacteria and colloidal particles present in the wine: all the operation, however, must be carried out before bottling to avoid contamination. Inside these filters must be placed a special cartridge that allows the complete cleaning, sterilization or polishing of wines.

CKP filter layers are used for the filtration of food liquids and chemical-pharmaceutical solutions, in a wide range of applications, ranging from roughing to sterilization. Through a process of constant research, the new CKP range has been developed. Changes in composition have allowed the implementation of product characteristics, improving efficiency, yield, durability and mechanical resistance throughout the filtration period. The high quality standard and the structure that guarantees the fibre transfer, as well as the exclusive CKP marking present on the entry side of the product, have remained unchanged. All products in the range meet the food contact requirements according to EC 1935/2004, BfR Recommendation Ch XXXVI and FDA CFR 21 176.170.

Flotation is a separation technique that takes advantage of specific gravity differences between solids e the liquid in which they are contained, taking them to the surface by means of special gases (air nitrogen) or floating agents (jellies, bentonite, etc). It is a procedure that allows the clarification of the must and is recommended for white and rosé musts. The advantages are: time and cost savings by limiting the use of the refrigerator, allowing the achievement of a product free from undesirable substances that can negatively affect fermentation; it renders the wine “stable” to be conserved or marketed, making it free of deposits and veiling.

I filtri housing permettono l’eliminazione di cellule di lieviti e batteri e particelle colloidali presenti nel vino: tutta l’operazione deve però venire eseguita prima dell’imbottigliamento per evitare la contaminazione. All’interno di questi filtri va posizionata una cartuccia particolare che permette la completa pulitura, sterilizzazione o brillantatura dei vini. L’attacco delle cartucce è di tipo a baionetta. A richiesta sono disponibili cartucce da 10/20/30” Filtrazione da 10 a 0.45 micron Microfiltri MF dotati delle seguenti caratteristiche tecniche: - Telaio in lamiera stampata; - Entrata ed uscita liquido: 1” 1/2 con curva; - N° 2 portagomma inox 19 mm con girello cromato; - Flangia di testa attacco 3” tri-clover con n°1 rubinetto e manometro; - Flangia di base attacco 3” tri-clover unipezzo tornito e lucidato; - Campana lucidata a specchio attacco inferiore e superiore 3” tri-clover; - Rubinetto a spillo per scarico non filtrato; - Pressione 4 BAR massimo.

The 60x60 cartridge filter is made entirely of stainless steel, is mounted on wheels, includes a stainless steel drip tray, and the filtration unit is closed by means of a central stainless steel screw. The plates are made of food-grade Polypropylene (600 x 600 mm) or Noryl, Moplen or Stainless Steel 316; it is fitted with pressure gauges, valves and liquid control specula.

The plate filters model SUPER 40x40 are built in stainless steel AISI 304 and equipped with plates in food-grade plastic material: Moplen in the standard version, or Noryl upon request, for special applications. They are designed to brighten and sterilise liquids of several natures as wine, sparkling wine, vinegar, products for herb processing, cosmetics, natural essences, liquors and olive oil. The filter is subdivided into three functional units: AISI 304 stainless steel frame fitted with 3 wheels, of which 1 swivel with brake; filtration unit with filtering plates in food-grade material; self-priming pump motor unit. A coaxial unit with impeller in natural non-toxic rubber, neoprene, nitrile, EPDM or silicone, can be installed under request. The pump can be equipped with a bypass for more uniform dispensing of the product.

The MINI filter consists of the special electric pump and a filtering system called system of liquid with pressed layers. This particular type of filtering allows the achievement of excellent purification levels of the beverages without changing the fundamental characteristics of the filtered liquid; therefore it specially preferred for domestic filtering, but also in the professional sector, for example wineries, pharmaceutical industries, laboratories, breweries; everywhere it is necessary to filter a beverage to be served later or to bottle it perfectly clear without any trace of inconvenient residues. It is specially indicated to filter wine, water, infusions, beer, pharmaceutical solutions, perfumes. Does not need any special maintenance, except a normal cleaning.

The MINUS 20x20 plate filters are built in AISI 304 stainless steel and equipped with plates in food-grade plastic material: Moplen in the standard version, or Noryl upon request, for special applications. They are designed to brighten and sterilise liquids of several natures as wine, sparkling wine, vinegar, products for herb processing, cosmetics, natural essences, liquors and olive oil. The filter is subdivided into three functional units. Frame in AISI 304 stainless steel fitted with 4 wheels, of which 2 swivel. Filtration unit with filtering plates in food-grade material. Motor, self-priming pump unit. A coaxial unit with impeller in natural non-toxic rubber, neoprene, nitrile, EPDM or silicone, can be installed under request. The pump can be equipped with bypass for a more uniform dispensing of the product.
