Deep Bed Filter Column Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-CELE-14173
Overview
The Deep Bed Filter Column is a laboratory-scale
filtration trainer designed to demonstrate the principles and
performance characteristics of deep-bed filtration systems. It provides a
clear visual and analytical understanding of the filtration process through a
granular medium under controlled conditions.
The apparatus is constructed using non-corrosive
transparent acrylic to enable full visibility of the filtration process. It
allows students to study head loss development, pressure distribution,
bed fluidization, and backwashing phenomena. The system is
complete with two feed/sump tanks, a centrifugal pump, flowmeter,
and multi-tube manometer for comprehensive analysis and precise data
measurement.
A detailed Operation & Maintenance
Manual is supplied with every unit.
Key
Features
- Transparent acrylic filter column for
complete visibility of filtration and backwashing processes.
- Flanged end pieces allow
easy filling, cleaning, and replacement of filter media.
- Ballotini packing ensures
uniform water distribution through the filter bed.
- Multiple slotted pressure tapings
across the bed allow measurement of pressure drop per unit length
and sampling for concentration studies.
- Comprehensive instrumentation
including differential manometers and flow meters for accurate monitoring.
- Dual feed tanks and circulation pump for continuous and steady operation.
- Designed for demonstration, teaching, and performance analysis
of filtration processes.
