Belt Filter Press KOMPRESS GRS SERIESIII - Komline

1 GRS SERIES IIIKOMPRESS Belt Filter PressSuperior Mechanical dewatering Performance by DesignGRS Series III KOMPRThe Best Value and Performance in MechanicalHere s Why:A Larger Standard Filtration Area forGreater Process Throughput andHigher Cake ConsistencyThe GRS Series III starts with more standard filtration area thanother comparable systems and combines logically integratedgravity dewatering , adjustable wedge and high compressionstagesfor optimum performance. When combined with K-S s High Rate Drainage System, the GRS Series III significantlyincreases process throughput over a similarly-sized competitivesystem with better filtration choice of 2 or 3-belt dewatering systems with standard,extended and independent gravity zones unique to the GRS Series III offers consistently high cake solids performancefor normal, poor draining.

2 Or extremely dilute Patented High Rate DrainageSystem that Dramatically Improves Filtration RateThe unique design of the GRS Series III s patented High Rate Roto-Kone Drainage System another K-S technologicaladvance significantly increases throughput over competitively-sized belt Filter Press systems. The Roto-Kone sunique ability to hold solids in the gravity zone for longerperiods of time and turn these solids repeatedly results in adramatically improved filtration Komline -SandersonAn Easily Adjustable, Variable WedgeCompression Zone that MaximizesProcess Rate and PerformanceThe GRS Series III features a variable wedge compressionzone that utilizes two tensioned Filter belts to draw dewateringmaterial into the wedge under gradually increasing pressureas the material approaches the first dewatering fixed or adjustable plate design wedge stages.

While more costly to build, a larger diameter first drum starts the dewatering process at alower pressure to eliminate the possibility of an upset of this larger first drum and a succession of decreasingdiameter drums gradually increases the pressure profile to a maximum dewatering force that produces the highest cake Belt Filter PressDewatering Systems AvailableK-S Custom Designed and BuiltInstrumentation/Controls forGuaranteed System IntegrityAll instrumentation and controls for the GRS Series III arecustom designed and built in-house to meet individualizedcustomer needs and ensure complete operating system uses only the highest quality UL listed
