Disc Filtration Systems
Guardian Disc Filtration Systems
Serfilco's Guardian disc filtration systems incorporate all the latest pump, filter and media technology with proven non-metallic materials and manufacturing techniques to provide a truly superior filtration system for your dollar. Guardian disc filtration systems include many standard features not available on competitive models. Standard systems are built on a rugged corrosion resistant "fork lift friendly" PVC mounting base. The systems include mechanical seal or magnetic-coupled pump and slurry tank with valves. Piping, valves and connections are all CPVC hard pipe with EPDM "O"-rings. Even with all these features and benefits, the Guardian disc filtration system is competitively priced.
Features
- High flow rates: 3000 - 8500 GPH Improve process quality; reduce scrap, tank maintenance and downtime
- Standard slurry tank with valves Prime pump, mix and add chemicals, rinse or pre-coat filters
- Totally non-metallic solution contact to 190°F (PVC, CPVC, polypropylene) Corrosion-free, low maintenance operation
- Quiet, efficient centrifugal pumps: Single seal, double seal or magnetic-coupled handles nearly all electroplating chemical applications
Bag Filtration Systems
Open Bag Filter Systems: Open bag filters are ideal for applications where quick change reusability of a gravity filter is desired. The filter bags are attached to a manifold with cam-lock quick-disconnect couplings for minimal downtime when servicing and they can be repeatedly washed and reused for fast, long-lasting payback on the cost of their installation. Bag filters are available in CPVC or PVDF materials and single or multiple bag assemblies.
Series 'CB' Cartridge / Bag Filtration System; The Cartridge / Bag system is a 2-stage liquid-solid separation system designed to provide high solids loading capabilities for applications requiring re circulating filtration of a process reservoir. Typical applicationsinclude the removal of particles from glass and plastic in bottle washing operations and the removal of board fiber, wheel grit, copper and other metals from water used in PC board deburring and scrubbing equipment.
Features
- Flow control valve
- High solids loading
- Vinyl coated steel base
Filter Press
Laboratory Filter Press: The Lab Filter Press is designed for lab analysis and small batch production. This press is also very useful for testing for up scaling to full production-size semi-automatic or manually operated presses. It includes polypropylene plates, filter cloth, air diaphragm pump, pneumatic controls, pressure gauges, inlet flow control valve, hoses, manual hydraulic pump and drip pan. Entire assembly is mounted on a vinyl coated steel base. Flow pattern is corner inlet with three individual corner discharge lines.
Recessed Plate Filter Press: The Recessed Plate Filter Press will compact sludge to a dry cake with a density that is dependent upon the ultimate compaction pressure and the characteristics of the particular sludge. Each press load will require from 2-4 hours cycle time. To insure adequate time, the press should be sized for at least 8 hours working capacity. The table and formula below can be utilized to size your press. To confirm your sizing and evaluate the process for your application with a laboratory-sized model, contact the Application Engineering Dept. to arrange a pilot test. Presses feature structural steel frame, coated with tough chemical resistant epoxy paint. High density molded polypropylene filter plates are light weight and corrosion resistant. Special polypropylene quick cake release filters cloths. Air actuated hydraulic system for parting and closing the filter plates.
Oil Filtration/Coalescing
Oil Filtration and Reconditioning Systems: Oil contamination is the major cause of hydraulic equipment failure. Even fresh oil, right from the drum, may contain contaminants at levels exceeding new equipment manufacturers' standards. Petroleum products such as hydraulic fluids don't wear out. Filter them to like new condition. Add new product only to make up for losses and to replenish additives.
Trans-O-Filter Systems effectively filter petroleum and synthetic fluids to remove abrasive grit and damaging sludge which contaminate and accumulate in hydraulic and lubricating oil circuits and reservoirs. They protect your machinery and system investments by eliminating pump damage, scored cylinders and the malfunction of valves and controls attributed to the destructive action of dirty or rancid oil. These systems offer you high flow rates and large dirt holding capacities in very compact packages. Each unit is designed to be completely self-contained; consisting of pump, motor, suction strainer and hoses. Carbon steel filter chamber will accommodate filter media down to 1 micron retention to meet your specific requirements.
Coalescing Systems: Serfilco Coalescing Systems are compact, economical, and simple to operate. Remove oils from rinse waters, cleaning solutions, plating solutions or waste effluents. Separate water or tramp oil from hydraulic fluids and machining coolants. Highly effective systems pump, pre filter and separate non-emulsified fluids having a .09 or greater difference in specific gravity. Solution is pumped through pre filter, then coalescing element where small droplets are held until large enough to float to top of coalescing chamber. Light phase is discharged from top of coalescing chamber; heavy phase is discharged from bottom of coalescing chamber. Unwanted phase is periodically bled off via manual flow control valve. Purified solution is directed back to tank or reservoir for re-use. Recovered effluent contains less than 10 ppm of the discontinuous phase. Carbon purification may be used to polish.
Carbon/Resin Systems
Carbon Purification Systems: Granular Carbon Purification Systems provide a simple, economical and efficient method of removing organic impurities from electroplating or other chemical solutions. Three product lines are offered: Labmaster, Space-Saver, and Guardian. The user can choose the particular model that is right for his/her application, flow rates, and the degree of solution purity required. Carbon canisters include trap filter
