About BEER FILTER UNIT
MICROTECH ENGINEERING Operation : MICROTECH ENGINEERING SPARKLER FILTER FOR BEER FILTRATION The unfiltered liquid is fed into the filter under positive pressure, where liquid travels in downwards direction and finds its way through opening on sides of the Filter Plates. As the liquid pressure increases, the Filter media holds the foreign particles and allows only clear filtrate to pass through the central channel formed by interlocking pressure cups to the outlet. Filtration is continued until the cake holding capacity of the unit is reached or until the filtrate rate becomes too slow owing to cake resistance. Features : Horizontal Plate Filter Press is enclosed construction, preventing evaporation, oxidation, leakage and fumes escaping from product. Filter plates are available in two sizes. Deep plate for large percentage of cake holding capacity and Shallow plate for small percentage of cake holding capacity. The horizontal filter plate and even thickness of cake, prevents the cake dropping as well as cracking, thus assuring better filtrate quality. The Filtration area and cake holding capacity can be increased or decreased according to requirement.

FAQs of BEER FILTER UNIT :
Q: How does the BEER FILTER UNIT improve beer quality?
A: The BEER FILTER UNIT enhances beer quality by mechanically removing sediments and particulates through its multi-layer fine mesh cartridges. This results in a higher clarity, ensuring the beer is visually appealing and of premium standard for consumers.
Q: What is the typical usage process for this beer filtration unit in breweries?
A: To use the unit, connect it to your brewing line via tri-clamp or threaded connections. Choose the appropriate cartridge setup (15), set the manual valve, and run the beer through for a single-pass filtration. You can clean the unit either manually or using CIP procedures for ongoing hygiene.
Q: When should breweries consider using this filtration unit?
A: Breweries should use the BEER FILTER UNIT after fermentation but before packaging. This stage is crucial for removing yeast, particulates, and haze, resulting in a clear, shelf-stable product.
Q: Where can the BEER FILTER UNIT be installed within a brewery setup?
A: This filter unit can be skid-, trailer-, or fixed-mounted, making it suitable for both mobile and stationary applications. It can be installed wherever filtration is required, particularly after fermentation tanks and before storage or bottling lines.
Q: What are the cleaning options for the BEER FILTER UNIT?
A: The unit can be cleaned manually by disassembling and washing components, or more conveniently, via Clean-In-Place (CIP) systems. This ensures all internal surfaces maintain brewery-grade hygiene standards.
Q: What benefits does the robust stainless steel construction offer?
A: Stainless steel construction ensures superior hygiene, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability. It also simplifies cleaning, preventing contamination and guaranteeing the consistent quality expected in professional breweries.
Q: How does the units efficiency affect the brewing process?
A: With up to 99.9% filtration efficiency, the BEER FILTER UNIT minimizes waste, maximizes yield, and reduces the risk of unwanted sediments reaching the final product. This boosts both operational consistency and customer satisfaction.
