Self-Cleaning Candle Filter (SCCF)
High-efficiency liquid filtration for critical industrial processes
The Brink® Self-Cleaning Candle Filter (SCCF) provides reliable, high-performance solid-liquid separation for industrial processes requiring consistent filtrate quality, continuous operation, and minimal maintenance.
Designed for both polishing filtration and higher solids loading applications, the SCCF combines automated operation, self-cleaning functionality, and a fully enclosed design to deliver outstanding performance and operational reliability.
WHAT IS A SELF-CLEANING CANDLE FILTER?
Automated filtration with consistent results
The Brink® SCCF is an advanced pressure filtration system that uses vertical filter candles housed within a closed vessel.
During operation, suspended solids are retained on the filter media while clarified liquid passes through the filter elements. Once filtration is complete, accumulated solids are automatically removed using a reverse pulse cleaning system, allowing continuous and repeatable operation.
Commonly used for:
APPLICATIONS
Designed for challenging industrial environments
Chlorine Production
High-purity brine filtration for membrane cell and electrolysis processes.
Process Liquid Filtration
Removal of suspended solids from industrial process streams.
Product Purification
Improve product quality through high-efficiency filtration.
Water Electrolysis
Protection of downstream equipment and process reliability.
Chemical Manufacturing
Filtration of process liquids and recovery streams.
Industrial Process Protection
Prevent solids from reaching sensitive equipment and critical process stages.
Brine Filtration
Reliable solids removal for high-purity brine treatment and electrolysis applications.
Filtration
The process liquid enters the vessel and flows through the filter candles, where solids are retained on the filter surface.
Cake Formation
Suspended particles accumulate on the filter media and form a filter cake.
For specific applications, cellulose precoat can be used to achieve the desired filtrate clarity.
Continuous Monitoring
Integrated instrumentation continuously monitors pressure, level, and operating conditions to ensure stable performance.
Self-Cleaning
A reverse pulse of compressed air or inert gas removes accumulated solids from the filter media.
Solids Discharge
The collected solids are discharged as a semi-dry filter cake for easy handling and disposal.
Return to Service
Filtration resumes automatically, ensuring continuous and repeatable operation.
