Manual Screen Changer Type HR
 

Manually actuated Slide Plate Screen Changers for discontinuous operation

  The new KREYENBORG slide plate screen changers are applied in processes in which a discontinuous resp. a not pressure constant filtration is sufficient.

With a slide plate screen changer one or two screen cavities are arranged on a swivel or slide plate, which is located between an inlet and an outlet flange.
A movement of this plate effects that the screen cavity is taken out of the process for screen change. At the same time the material flow is either locked or a second screen cavity performs the filtration task.

Applications

  • for processing virgin material
  • for processes with low pollution (e.g. blown film extrusion, profile extrusion)
  • as protection filter with rough filter fineness (e.g. pump protection filtration

 

Materials

  • suitable for almost all polymers

Function

  • discontinuously working melt filters, for the screen change the line has to be switched of for a short time (2-4 min.) 
  • for the screen change the captive washer is operated by hand ratchet by means of a gear wheel drive. Thereby the screen cavity is swivelled out of the machine, in order to change the filter media
  • during the screen change the captive washer locks the flow channel
