| Werner Finley Hydro band Filter Sys. (WF-HBF) |
Gravity band filter Sys. (GBF) |
Space requirement for Hydro Band filter is less when compare to GBF. Reduction of valuable floor space. |
Large area required for the gravity band filter. It means loss of Valuable floor space at shop floor.
|
High Hydrostatic Head available with HBF Min of 250mm |
Very low hydrostatic head. Max of 80 mm. |
Thourgh put and filtration efficiency are much better because of excellent hydrosatic head. Hence, the equipment is very compact. |
Poof Filtration efficiency due to low hydostatic head which limits the cake formation. |
In view of excellent Hydrostatic Head cake formation on the filter media is fine and can achieve optimum filtration efficiency. |
In view of low hydrostatic head to get higher efficiency needs expensive filter media to achieve desired results.
|
Consumption of filter media is minimum. Hence,operation cost is less. |
Consumption of filter media is high. So operating cost is high. |
WF-HBF has Perfect sealing mechanism on sides with steel wheels and moving band along with filter media ensures 100% against over flow. |
GBF open from sides. This can lead to overflow of dirty cooland and hereby objective of coolant filtration is not satisfactory.
|
Energy consumption is less due to slow indexing of the motor. |
Energy consumption is high in view of frequent indexing of motor. |
Initioal installation cost is marginally high but low operation cost. |
Initial installation cost is less but high operation cost. |
