For Reliable Support Properties
PERMAdur S support filter sheets were developed to provide enhanced support reliability for precoat support applications in the food and beverage industry.The production of PERMAdur S support sheets is based on the latest technological and scientific achievements in depth filter media.
The PERMAdur S support filter sheets are utilized in classic plate and frame filters serving as precoat support. Essentially the service life, and consequently the total throughput of a diatomaceous earth (DE, kieselguhr) supporting sheet, is determined by the quality of the DE and the support structure of the sheet. It is important that no solid particles enter the structure of the support sheet.

Filter Sheets
Handling during installation
- Place sheet over support plate of the plate and frame filter
- For filters with manual tightening device: moisten filter sheets then tighten
- For filters with hydraulic tightening device: tighten up to filter pre-pressure of 3000-3500 kPa (30-35 bar, 432-507 psi). Rinse the filter with warm water at ambient temperature in a forward flow direction with at a flow of at least 50 L/m2
- Control and adjust the filter to a pre-pressure of 3000-3500 kPa (30-35 bar, 432-507 psi) and sterilize.
Rinsing post filtration
- Flush with water at a temperature of 50-55 °C (122-131 °F)
- Flow in the forward direction: should be at least nominal filter output
- Counter pressure ~ 50kPa (0.5 bar, 7.25 psi)
- Duration: 10-15 minutes or until the rinse water is clear.
Hot water flushing
- Water temperature: >85 °C (185 °F)
- Flow in the forward direction: minimal nominal filter output
- Counter pressure ~ 50 kPa (0.5 bar, 7.25 psi)
- Duration: until a temperature of at least 85 °C (185 °F) is achieved on the outlet side. Allow the filter to stand for at least 30 minutes with hot water. Open the vent valve on the filter inlet side.
Steaming
- Steam temperature: max 121 °C (250 °F), low pressure steam
- Duration: 20 minutes.
