Agitator Nutsche Filter Cum Dryer

The Agitated Nutsche Filter Dryer (ANFD) is a multi-functional, fully enclosed vessel designed to perform solid-liquid separation and drying in a single equipment. These systems are essential for industries such as pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, and specialty chemicals, where they allow for complex batch processes like filtration, cake washing, and re-slurrying to occur sequentially. By combining operations into one unit, manufacturers can minimize product handling and operator exposure, which is critical when dealing with toxic or sensitive active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). The sources describe this equipment as an advanced solution engineered for excellence, reliability, and containment.

Key Features and Technical Design:
Our ANFD systems are engineered with critical components that ensure high performance and product purity:
• Multipurpose Agitator: A unique feature that performs vertical and rotational movements to smooth the cake, re-slurry during washing, and turn the cake during drying.
• Filter Disc/Media: The bottom porous plate retains solids while allowing liquids or gases to pass, with options including metallic screens, sintered wire mesh, or filter cloth.
• Jacketed Vessel: The entire unit can be temperature-controlled using limpet or heating jackets on the shell and bottom dish to facilitate efficient drying.
• Containment and Safety: Designed for fully sealed operation under vacuum or pressure, featuring leak-proof seals to prevent solvent evaporation and environmental contamination.
• Materials of Construction: Available in Stainless Steel (SS 316L), Hastelloy, or glass-lined options to meet specific chemical inertness and visibility requirements.
