BKG® SPC High Capacity Slide Plate Screen Changer
The BKG® SPC large area melt filter is suitable for high-capacity polymer filtration lines that run up to 27,000 kg/h (60,000 lbs/hr) and higher and are used in polymerization processes.
Overview
The BKG® SPC 1200 EA and BKG® SPC 1500 EA are based on conventional slide plate designs, utilizing cylindrical screens which provide maximum filtration area while keeping mechanical parts at the most reasonable and economical sizes.
The BKG® SPC melt filter series is an excellent fit for high-capacity installations because it provides a huge filtration area.
