NOVOX® 800 and 1200 Series
Characteristics
The NOVOX® 800 and 1200 series are a high precision stainless steel filter presses for precoat or sheet filtration designed and manufactured for heavy duty use – 24/7, especially for large flow rates as needed in the brewing industry.
The unique design of the NOVOX® allows for efficient handling.
High precision construction of the plate & frame assembly, and the hydraulic closing mechanism, combined with high-performance FILTROX filter sheets, minimize drip-loss.
Working principle (plate and frame filter)
Plate and frame filters provide large filter areas on a relatively small footprint. The filter area is separated in single plates which form stacks. Every other plate and frame has an inlet or an outlet for the filtrate. The filtration is performed parallel over the whole surface.

Applications
There is a broad field of applications for NOVOX® series filters. Its high filtration performance, top manufacturing quality and comprehensive set of certificates meet the high standards of sensitive applications such as beverage, biotech or pharmaceutical industries. The NOVOX® can successfully operate in processes with high filter cakes as well as precoat filtration.
Operating conditions (filter)
| NOVOX® | Stainless elements |
|---|---|
| Max operating temperature | 95°C |
| Max pressure | 6 bar |
| Max differential pressure (inlet-outlet) | 5 bar |
Limiting factor for the delta p of a sheet filtration is the sheet grade and the application.
