Candle diatomaceous earth beer filters
Professional solution of primary filtration for medium and large microbreweries
Beer filtration through candle diatomaceous earth filter is the most common solution of a filtration in a microbrewery of medium and large sizes . Beverage filtration is done through driftwood filter means on the vertical filter candles . Candle filter is characterized by high filtration efficiency . The most widely used filter medium is diatomaceous earth . Depending on the composition of the filter layer different degrees of purity and flow of filtered liquid can be achieved . Ongoing diatomaceous earth dosage by a dosing pump keeps the filter still enough permeable . This allows to achieve high -capacity performance. Cleaning (regeneration ) of the filter is very easy and fast, without disassembling the pressured vessel.
The filter is fitted as standard with the sight glass at the inlet and outlet . It can be equipped with various degrees of automation. The filter is a mobile device mainly on travel wheels.
Advantages of diatomaceous filtration:
