Flexicon's PNEUMATI-CON® Pharmaceutical Grade Filter Receiver for medium- to high-throughput vacuum and positive-pressure conveying of extra-fine, difficult-to-handle and/or contamination-sensitive bulk solid materials, features designs to readily change/inspect filter cartridges and sanitize the interior.
A gas-spring-operated lid provides access to a removable filter plate, allowing cartridge filters to be removed and inspected or cleaned from the top, eliminating product hold up points and cleaning difficulty associated with side access doors and bolted-in filter plates. Triclamp fittings additionally allow rapid disconnection and cleaning of all accessory parts and lines.
Hinged lid allows rapid removal of tapered filter cartridges, and unobstructed interior access for sanitizing and visual inspection of material contact surfaces.
Available in 17.7 and 24 in. (450 and 610 mm) diameters, the design can accommodate level sensors, pressure monitors, and other accessories.
Typical applications include separation of bulk pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, foods, and other contamination-sensitive materials being conveyed to tableting machines, packaging lines and other downstream processes.
