PROCEPT Lab Filter Dryer

For early stage filtration and drying kinetic studies of API / NCE, scale up and process validation. Nutsche filter for filter cakes between diameter 8-20 cm.

The PROCEPT Lab Filter Dryer

includes a vacuum system, jacketed dust filter, glass condenser, condenser receiver vessel, bypass, vacuum pump and process pressure control.

All critical process data can be recorded: impeller torque, compression force on cake, product temperature, impeller rpm and direction, pressure over filter cake, process pressure, mass recovered liquid, product temperature, process vessel/condenser/filter jacket temperature.

A touch screen Windows based PC automation package: “real-time”-trending and batch reporting in Excel of all critical process data and batch identification.
