It has a self-draining filter tank, airtight hood and advanced control options. Compared with traditional vacuum drum filters, ANDRITZ's Nutrion vacuum filters have a number of improved features that can eliminate any risk of contamination, which is a basic requirement for separation equipment in the pharmaceutical or food industry. The filter tank is designed without any internal mechanical parts and has self-emptying capability, which simplifies the maintenance process and improves the cleanliness of the sensitive area. An airtight hood eliminates the risk of contamination, and an integrated nozzle is used for fully automatic cleaning in place (CIP) and optional filter cake cleaning. The innovative magnetic clamping device takes filter cloth installation to a new level by eliminating dirt traps and reducing the downtime of filter cloth replacement. For pre-coating applications, by adding a pre-coating scraper with a stepper motor, the same CIP and fully enclosed design are also used to improve product quality and employee safety. Nutrion ensures improved employee safety, highest hygiene and product quality, while ensuring higher availability and minimizing manual intervention. In order to further optimize the process operation, Nutrion is equipped with the proven Metris addIQ control system, which increases production and further improves product quality. The Nutrion filter has a photoelectric sensor for measuring the height of the filter cake and continuously measuring the tank level. Production parameters are continuously monitored to facilitate the identification of opportunities for improvement and savings, and to anticipate any possible failures, thereby virtually eliminating downtime.
