Maag Pump Systems screen changers offer
a host of benefits to enhance the quality of
your production process:
Filter systems
Dramatically increased screen area. The sophisticated
filtering technology of Maag Pump Systems is based on a proven piston design
that works without seals. These single and dual piston screen changers for candle
filter offer years of leak-free filtration.
• Rheologically optimized flow channels
• Material residence time less than 30 seconds
• Candle changes in less than 10 minutes
• Simple start-up and operation
• Leak-free operation
• Trouble-free venting
• No seals or wearing parts to fail
• A variety of installation positions and orientations available
• Compact design
For years they have been used in the fiber industry for effective protection
against gels and contaminants in PET, PA, and similar thermoplastics. The effec-
tive screening area of the candle filter screen changer is about 60 times larger
than that of a flat screen. Screen areas as large as several square feet or square
meters mean longer service life with longer intervals between back flushing or
removal and cleaning, less pressure loss, and deeper filtration that captures soft
particles such as gels. A screen changer fitted with candle filters can also add to
the service life of the spin-packing on a fiber web and enable high-performance
filtering not otherwise possible with flat screen packs.
