Standard nutche filter dryer

Advanced design for pharmaceutical use
The Nutche filter dryer is meticulously designed to comply with the strict standards of safety and quality required in pharmaceutical processing environments.

Perfect for limited space and system upgrades
This dryer is particularly well-suited for production facilities with limited space or as a modern replacement for older filter dryers. It’s an excellent choice for companies seeking high purity, safety, and compliance with environmental regulations.

Multi-step processing in a single unit
The Nutche filter dryer supports multiple processing steps in one machine, including feeding/filtration, drying, plug valve discharge, CIP (Clean-in-Place), SIP (Sterilise-in-Place), and inerting. The agitator features adjustable speed rotation and axial movement for precise control throughout the process.

Efficient filtration with high dryness levels
Filtration is driven by the pressure differential across the filter medium. The agitator’s consistent motion is maintained even at low liquid content. The result is a dryness level that exceeds that of standard filters, with a final product comparable in dryness to that achieved by centrifugation.

Thorough cleaning via reslurrying and re-filtration
During the washing phase, the product undergoes several cycles of reslurrying and filtration. The combination of agitator movement and the selected cleaning solvent ensures a highly effective cleaning process, optimising both hygiene and product integrity.

Precision vacuum drying and automated discharge
The Nutche filter dryer allows for precise vacuum drying, supported by both bottom and side wall heating as well as inert hot gas blow drying. Once the target dryness is reached, the product is automatically discharged via the side valve—making the process efficient, safe, and user-friendly.
