S2 Engineering’s Candle Filters are expertly crafted to provide high-efficiency filtration, utilising a cluster of columnar filter elements enclosed within a pressure vessel. This innovative design enables the formation of a filter cake with dry solids content of up to 80% while producing filtrate with exceptional clarity. Perfect for a wide range of applications, these filters deliver both superior performance and enhanced safety.

Tailored Filtration Solutions
Our Candle Filters are fully customisable to meet diverse filtration needs, offering capabilities such as thin-cake pressure filtration, cake washing, drying, re-slurry, automatic discharge, and heel filtration. Designed for clarification and recovery processes, they handle liquids with low solids content, ranging from 5% to trace amounts, ensuring efficient and reliable performance.

Innovative Safety Features
S2 Candle Filters prioritise operator safety, particularly when dealing with hazardous materials like carbon. Traditional leaf filters often require manual carbon removal, posing pyro-hazard risks to operators. Our multi-tube carbon filter design incorporates automatic discharge, securely transferring the carbon into a container without human contact, significantly reducing operator exposure and enhancing workplace safety.

Streamlined Filtration Process
As the liquid enters the filter, the mother liquor is directed to an ML tank while solids accumulate on the filter candles. The wet cake is then removed through a reverse flush process and collected in a container below the filter. With a fully enclosed system, S2 Candle Filters are ideal for safely handling solvents, concentrated acids, and other toxic materials, ensuring efficiency and containment throughout the filtration process.

S2 Engineering’s Candle Filters set a new standard in high-clarity filtration, offering customisable features, enhanced safety, and reliable solutions for industrial applications involving hazardous materials.
