The Rotavac Lab is a fully functional and representative lab scale rotary drum vacuum filter (RDVF) and filtration system, generally used for product evaluation tests or as a preliminary step towards pilot scale and full scale equipment trials. The unit can be used to validate the suitability of this type of continuous vacuum filtration equipment. The equipment offers the advantage of an easily interchangeable discharge system so that different configurations can be trialled if required. It is supplied with a control panel for modifying drum and agitator speeds and, when using a precoat discharge, the knife advance rate. A separate skid mounted feed tank, mixer and feed pump is included with the RDVF. The unit is easy to assemble and we can provide full detailed instructions including photographs at the point of hire. We include filter cloths from our extensive range of fabrics.
