Pilot Vacuum Filter
We design and build custom pilot vacuum filtration systems tailored for R&D, process development, and scale-up. Unlike standard equipment, our filters are engineered for flexibility, precision, and reliable operation at very low flow rates, making them ideal for pilot environments.
A key advantage of our solutions is the ability to ensure stable and continuous filtration starting from as low as 1 kg/h, which is critical for process validation but difficult to achieve with conventional systems. At the same time, the units can be scaled to higher capacities depending on process needs (up to 20 kg/h).
Our pilot vacuum filters are designed to handle a wide range of slurries, with materials of construction carefully selected (e.g. stainless steel, plastics, or lined systems) to ensure durability and long-term performance.
The systems can be fully customized and configured with multiple filtration zones (from 1 up to 4) depending on the application. Additional features such as automated cake washing and filter cloth cleaning are integrated to improve separation efficiency and process consistency.
Thanks to their lightweight, modular design, the units are easy to operate, maintain, and adapt to different processes- providing a reliable and practical tool for pilot-scale testing.
