Durco Filters Pressure Leaf Filters efficiently handle high-flow and batch operations with less than 2% solids. They use permanent filter leaves inside a pressure vessel, often combined with Diatomaceous Earth (DE) to improve filtration and clarity. Their design supports high flow rates, reaching up to 2 gallons per minute per square foot of filter area.
Horizontal Vessels
Most typical configuration.
Used when maximum surface area for filtration is required
Vertical Vessels
Used when floor space is limited
When flow is intermittent, horizontal leaves can be used
Nutsche Filters
Used when the cake is the product and needs to be recovered
Allows multiple steps including cake washing in one vessel
