HEINKEL Drying and Separation Group has developed the table-top size Nutsche Pressure Filter to provide R&D facilities the ability to conduct filtration testing with very small quantities of material.

The unit holds 1.4 liters of slurry volume, the filter area is 74sq/cm, and the maximum cake thickness that can be created is 140mm (5-1/2”). The unit also has the capability to apply pressured heated gas to further dry the filter cake.

Based on the data collected with this unit, the PRESSURE FILTER can determine the performance of filtering centrifuge and pressure filter equipment.
