Metris addIQ ACE for filter presses

In operations with multiple filter presses, operators make decisions on when is the best time to take one of the machines out of operation for washing or cloth change. This decision affects overall production and water consumption. At this level, operators need to consider the efficiency of filtration operations as a whole. When there are more than four filter presses in the plant, it can be very complex to maintain an overview of the entire operation. 

Operators have to consider many aspects of the operation constantly, such as bottlenecks in throughput, availability of water, and the operating status in upstream and downstream equipment. Metris addIQ ACE for filter presses considers all the aspects mentioned, automates the decision-making process, and optimizes the entire filter press operation – uniformly and holistically.

Benefits

  • Automated filter operation for more filter presses
  • Maximized filtration throughput and plant efficiency
  • Intelligent decision-making for water and power consumption
  • Intelligent trade-offs between availability, filtration efficiency, and throughput
