When using pressure leaf filters, the basis for all good filter cakes is a sound precoat. Gusmer has been manufacturing filter precoat materials used in beer filtration for decades. Gusmer’s Cellu-Flo filter aids are widely used throughout the industry as a precoat because of their ability to form a fibrous matrix on the filter screens that provides a proper site for filter cake formation. This fibrous matrix also serves to protect the filter screens, virtually eliminates bleed- through, adds cake stability and allows for a quick and clean cake release at the end of the filter cycle. Cellu-Flo RW and SL Series For Pressure Leaf Filters • Widely used for coarse and polish filtration applications • Used as a precoat and bodyfeed adjunct • Derived from carefully selected softwood and hardwood cellulose Cellu-Flo CLR Series For Pressure Leaf Filters • Using Cellu-Flo as a pre-coat and body feed adjunct improves filter cake release and cleaning time for filters • Reduces filter aid bleed through which might occur due to damaged screens • Derived from pure cotton linters cellulose Cellu-Flo filter aids are available in many different fiber length distributions and formulations. Contact your Gusmer representative for the optimal dosage rate and grade selection for your filtration application.
