Bokela - Model BoFilTest -Portable Filtration Device
BoFilTest is a compact, portable filtration device for laboratory and field use. With BoFilTest, filtration properties of suspensions can be determined quickly, easily and reproducibly. BoFilTest is also ideally suited for extracting small quantities of pure solid or liquid from suspensions.
BoFilTest enables fast, easy and reproducible analysis of filtration data for both vacuum and pressure filtration. Even with very small quantities of suspension, it is possible to determine the filtration parameters and material parameters which are relevant for process design, apparatus design or for compliance with regulations.
BoFilTest is very versatile. Therefore, numerous production facilities, laboratories, control institutions and research institutions worldwide use it for one of the many possible applications.
The simple handling of BoFilTest allows a quick test procedure. Due to the quick-release closures on the upper and lower part of the pressure filter cell, a test can be started immediately after filling in the sample suspension. One hand movement is enough to get BoFilTest ready for a test.
With a filtration area of only 20 cm² and a filtration pressure of up to 11 bar (a) BoFilTest allows
- a fast, easy and reproducible analysis of filtration data
- the variation of all filtration parameters such as cake height, pressure difference (for cake formation, washing and dehumidifying), amount of wash liquid
- the determination of the relevant filtration parameters and material parameters for both vacuum and pressure filtration such as: cake forming time, air breakthrough time, wash time, demoisturing time, gas flow rate, cake and filter media resistance, etc.
- the determination of the suitable filter medium
- the production of small amounts of material (solid or filtrate)
- the production of analysis samples (solid or filtrate) for further subsequent analysis
Optionally, the measured values can be electronically recorded and evaluated.
Experiments with BoFilTest
Are you no longer reaching your residual moisture level? Is it possibly due to the filter cloth, the filter or the settings? First test your parameters with your laboratory equipment and then transfer the results to your filter after a successful series of tests.
