What Is a Belt Filter?
A belt filter is a type of filter that utilizes a belt-shaped filtering material to remove solid particles from liquids.
The belt rotates at high speed, capturing solid particles as the liquid passes through. It is primarily used for filtering substances such as paint and cleaning solutions. As the rotating belt comes into contact with the liquid, solid particles are captured, and when the belt reaches the discharge outlet, the captured solid particles are expelled. This mechanism allows for the efficient processing of large quantities of liquid using a wide surface area of filtering material.
Belt filters find applications in various fields, including automotive painting and cleaning, architectural painting and cleaning, as well as the cleaning and manufacturing of food products. Their notable features include the ability to use a large filtering surface area and achieve efficient filtration through high-speed rotation.
