Mahle Pressure Leaf Filters – Vertical

The Vertical Dry / Wet Cake Discharge Filters are an economical type of pressure leaf filter; they are equipped with rectangular filter leaves mounted vertically and connected to a filtrate manifold at the bottom of the filter tank. Available with filter areas ranging from 2m2 to 85 m2.

This vertical pressure leaf filter offers a large specific filtration area due to the shape of the filter elements. In the edible oil industry, it is used in several filtration steps, such as crude oil filtration, bleaching earth filtration, and micella filtration. Mahle (Amafiltergroup/LFC) has been building these filters for more than 60 years. The MVDCD range incorporates several product improvements, making the design state-of-the-art. The double-sided filter leaves are made from stainless steel. The rigid filter leaves have five layers of stainless-steel wire screens. The top layer of screen depends on the application. The filter leaves are individually mounted on the central manifold, allowing easy, quick removal of any or all of them. The filter cake can be dried with compressed air, inert gas, or steam. The cake is discharged by a pneumatic vibrator through a large butterfly valve.
