Sparkler Filter Press Manufacturer in India

A sparkler filter press is a horizontal plate filter that separates fine solids from a liquid under pressure. Unfiltered liquid is pumped into the central channel of the cartridge, the filter media resting on each plate holds back the particles, and clear filtrate passes out through the peripheral holes into the shell and away at the outlet. Because the shell wall never touches the unfiltered liquid, it stays clean through the cycle.

Pharmaceutical and API plants, ayurvedic and herbal extract units, chemical and dye works, distilleries and beverage lines, edible oil, ghee and honey processors, cosmetic and perfume makers, and paint, resin and ink manufacturers. Anywhere a clear, particle free liquid is required, this is the standard machine for the job.

Standard plate diameters are 8, 14, 18, 24 and 33 inch, with 4 to 33 plates depending on the model and shell height. Indicative output runs from around 100 litres per hour on a small 8 inch pilot unit to roughly 20,000 litres per hour on a fully loaded 33 inch machine. Actual throughput depends on your liquid viscosity, solid load and media, so share the litres you filter per shift and we work backwards to the plate size.

The standard build uses SS 304 for the shell, plates, perforated screens and interlocking cups. SS 316 and SS 316L are used where the liquid is corrosive or a pharma audit requires it, and a common GMP arrangement is SS 316 on all contact parts with SS 304 on non-contact parts. Mill test certificates are issued in your company name and handed over with the machine.

A zero hold-up or reverse flow model uses a modified cartridge and piping so almost no liquid is left inside the unit when filtration ends. A standard machine retains some liquid in the shell, which is acceptable for water based and low cost liquids. For high value pharma, herbal extract, essential oil and API batches, the product left behind costs more than the price difference, so the zero hold-up build pays for itself.

Filter paper suits fine polishing, filter cloth handles heavier solid loads, and SS wire mesh, cellulose pads or PP media are used where the liquid or the cleaning cycle demands it. Media is changed when the inlet pressure gauge reaches its set limit, which is the signal that the cake has filled the plate. Filter aid such as hyflow or activated carbon is added upstream when you want a sparkling finish.

Yes, with a jacketed shell. Steam or hot water in the jacket keeps the liquid at working temperature so it does not thicken and choke the media midway through the cycle. This is the normal build for honey, ghee, wax, thick syrup and edible oil duty, usually paired with a gear or lobe pump rather than a centrifugal one.

Yes. Solvent duty machines are supplied with a flameproof motor and starter, earthing bosses and solvent resistant gaskets in PTFE, silicone or EPDM, for ethanol, IPA, hexane, ethyl acetate and similar liquids in extraction halls and API plants.

Positioning, piping tie-in, pump and panel wiring, water trial, the first product batch and operator training are part of the supply scope. Gaskets, interlocking cups, perforated screens and filter media are held in stock and ship the same week you ask for them.

Standard handover covers the general arrangement drawing, material of construction certificates, hydro and pressure test reports, weld and polish records, the operating and maintenance manual and a spare parts list. DQ, IQ and OQ protocols, along with a validation document set, are prepared on request for GMP and export buyers.

Standard 8 to 18 inch units ship in 2 to 4 weeks from order confirmation. Larger 24 and 33 inch machines, jacketed shells and flameproof builds take 5 to 6 weeks. Machines leave our Saharanpur works fully assembled on their own castor base, crated and lashed, so nothing has to be rebuilt on arrival.

Yes. We supply across every Indian state and to export markets, with sea worthy packing, export documentation and a specification set prepared to the destination country's requirement.
