Filtration Pumps

Effective washing of filter press cloths is best achieved by using an integral, automated spray arm system, with the cleaning water being applied at high pressure. 

High-pressure washing increases filter press efficiency by cleaning particulates, fats, oils, proteins and other hard-to-remove residues from the cloth, opening the weave to increase water throughput. Automatic cloth-wash systems are faster than manual washing, reducing out-of-commission down-time and improving consistency of cleaning.

Cat Pumps’ customised high pressure Filter Press Cloth Wash Modules typically incorporate a pressure regulator valve, safety valve and diverter valve, which off-loads the pump during idle times, reducing energy consumption and pump wear.
