Continuous screen changer / hydraulic / double slide plate - max. 11 000 kg/h | CFSC series

The Contiflow filters polymers without interrupting the melt and expels air from the incoming breaker plate as it enters the melt flow. The two slide plates have a slow movement, allowing the incoming breaker plate to pre-fill with polymer.

Has a patented, fully automatic sealing system, and is designed specifically for extrusion processes, which do not allow air entrapment in the melt flow during a screen change.

Ideal for blown and cast film, sheet, strands and pipes production and any other critical processes, non-compatible with air entrapment.

Available in two- and four-breaker-plate models to suit any process requirement. Can be electrically, oil or steam heated. Suitable for working temperatures up to 280˚ C and melt pressures up to 350 BAR.

Models: Typical Output:
CFSC 70 350 kg/h
CFSC 100 800 kg/h

Continuous screen changer / hydraulic / double slide plate - max. 5 000 kg/h | OSC series

The oval breaker plate allows twice the filtration area of a conventional circular breaker plate, maintaining a compact overall size screen changer. The Oval Breaker Plate Screen Changer is available in one or two slide-plate versions.

The two-slide-plate version allows the melt to flow continuously during a screen change.

This model does not have pre-fill facilities. (For a continuous flow screen changer, which does not allow air entrapment and has pre-fill facilities, refer to the model ‘Contiflow’).

Discontinuous screen changer / hydraulic / slide plate - CA

These CA screen changers designed with a single or double plate complete the Filtec product range. This unit filters the molten product onto the pelletizing lines, as well as for the processing of blown films, casts and flat heads. The device comes in various versions, based on the product to filter, with electric or diathermic oil heating. The material is pushed from the extruder to the gear pump, and flows to an inner channel crossed by plate with a suitable filtering capacity.

The plate is activated through a cylinder, operated by a hydraulic control system. A particular probe determines the added pressure brought by clogging of the filtering net and delivers an alarm signal. This signal serves as a warning for the need to change the placement of the plate. Oval shaped filters may also be used for other applications.

Continuous screen changer / hydraulic / double-piston - 10 000 psi | CSC series

The PSI Continuous Screen Changer can filter majority of polymers without any manufacturing interference during a screen replacement. It features two display bolts along with a filter hole for each of them. The bolt is removed from the assembly in case of a screen replacement while the rest of the parts remain intact in the operating dimension.

The dusty screen pakc can be easily detached and exchanged with a fresh one. Later the bolt can be placed into the assembly back to its venting dimension prior to further operation. Similar process can be used for the rest of the bolts as it permits consistent filtration without manufacturing damage. Moreover, the PSI Continuous Screen Changers are capable of handling ultra-high force applications and ensure a spillage-free performance of a maximum of 10,000 psi.

Discontinuous screen changer / hydraulic / single-piston - 10 000 psi | DSC

The Discontinuous Screen Changer from PSI guarantees a leak-free operation of up to 10,000 psi. All parts are manufactured according to ISO-9002 standards. Its compact design permits simple adaptation and flexible installation.

The tool is an automated alternative to the Manual Screen Changer or In-line filtration. The device allows the extruder screw to be pulled through the screen changer without removal. This rugged design provides resilience to wear. This equipment comes with turn-key systems.

Continuous screen changer / hydraulic / double slide plate - 10 000 psi | CSC, BF

Continuous screen changer / hydraulic / double slide plate - 10 000 psi | CSC, BF

The Continuous Backflush Screen Changer (CSC/BF) is manufactured by Psi-polymersystems. Its screen life increased as many as 25 times or more. Contaminants are purged out of ports in the bottom of the housing into a drip pan. Once the backflush sequence takes place, the recycled screens are returned to the home position until the sequence takes place again. The number of backflush sequences varies from process to process before a screen change is required. Increased screen life of 25 times or more is common.

The design allows for less frequent screen changers without interrupting material flow. The absence of wear surfaces allows users to provide a five-year warranty against melt leaks. This model offers an simpler access and less interference for the operator.
