Larox now has a completely redesigned range of standardized Pannevis RT Horizontal Vacuum Belt Filters ranging from 1.6 m2 up to 63 m2.
This new standardized range of Pannevis RT belt filters provide many advantages to the customer.
The Pannevis RT vacuum belt filter was introduced to the marketplace in 1967 as the very first tray-type horizontal vacuum belt filter. It quickly became the market leader in the Chemical Process Industries due to its ease of operation, performance, cleanliness and reliability.
Pannevis also introduced the first Fume Tight, Gas Tight and Pressure Tight vacuum belt filter designs as well as the Press Belt and Vacuum Press Belt, both of which further improved dewatering performance. The new standardized RT designs continue the Pannevis tradition of being at the forefront of technical and marketplace development with regard to belt filter technology.
The new standardized Pannevis RT filter range is based on two basic options:
- Conventional SS wetted-parts design
- Corrosion resistant design.
The advantages of the new standardized designs to the user of Pannevis RT filters include:
- Standardization of components
- Standardization on the best features from the various models
- Shorter delivery times
- More compact design for the larger models (new 3 m width replaces 2.88 m)
- Flexibility in adding options during the ordering process or after installation
- Fast spare parts availability
- Exchangeable parts over different width models
- Simple modifications to upgrade or extend existing models
- Standardization of options and ancillaries
- Integrated automation over the complete range (also integrated with all other Larox products)
- Simplified automation upgrades
The new product range continues to provide the exceptionally high standards for which the Pannevis RT filter is already well known and will provide even higher levels of reliability with lower maintenance costs as a result of the standardization process.
The new models will continue to offer features and options to meet the widest possible range of applications in the Chemical Process Industries backed up by the extensive technical know-how of the Larox organization based on almost 40 years of delivering horizontal vacuum belt filter solutions.
The new Pannevis range of RT horizontal vacuum belt filters will also be fully supported by the Larox Service group, the most comprehensive and experienced network in the industry, covering the world with operations in over 40 countries and providing reliable support throughout the entire lifecycle of the product.
