Nutsche Filter

Product Details:

At Hi Tech Applicator, we specialize in delivering advanced solid-liquid separation solutions, and our Agitated Nutsche Filter (ANF) is a testament to precision engineering and process efficiency. Designed for vacuum or pressure filtration in batch operations, our ANF is widely used in the pharmaceutical, chemical, dye, agrochemical, and food industries for filtering, washing, and drying crystalline or amorphous products under controlled conditions.

The system allows filtration, washing, re-slurring, and drying to be carried out in a single, closed vessel, minimizing product contamination, operator exposure, and material loss—making it ideal for handling toxic, volatile, or sensitive substances.

• ✅ Multipurpose Design – Combines filtration, washing, and drying in a single sealed unit

• ✅ Agitation Mechanism – Helps reslurry, wash, and dry solids uniformly without manual intervention

• ✅ Pressure/Vacuum Operation – Operates under vacuum or pressure for enhanced filtration performance

• ✅ Solvent Recovery – Closed system prevents vapor loss and allows effective solvent recovery

• ✅ cGMP & Cleanroom Compatible – Designed to meet stringent pharmaceutical and chemical industry standards

• Capacity Range: From 50 liters to 20,000 liters

• Operating Pressure: Vacuum to +6 kg/cm²

• Operating Temperature: Up to 200°C (depending on material)

• Filtration Area: Customizable as per batch size and process

• Drive Mechanism: Top/Bottom entry with variable speed gear motor
