DESCRIPTION :
Leaf filters, sometimes called tank filters, they consists of flat filtering elements (leaves) supported in a shell. The leaves are circular, arc-sided, or rectangular, and they have filtering surface on both faces. The shell is a cylindrical tank The set-up consists of flat filtering elements (leaves) supported in a slurry tank. A filter leaf consists of a perforated plate over which a filter medium of woven fabric is fitted. The whole assembly is connected to a vacuum pump through a filtrate receiver. An agitator is fitted in the slurry tank. Drain valve is provided in it. The set-up is operated batch wise.
The present set-up has a facility to interface the system with computer which enables to log the experimental data using computer. The educational software and data-logging package has been developed for unit. The software environment base is of Labview of NATIONAL INSTRUMENTS, USA. This software is compatible to interfacing unit designed by "Lab Smith". This software package provides a comprehensive educational software environment within which the investigations can be performed. This software is capable to tabulate the sample readings according to the requirement of experiment under study and results obtained can be compared. The real time data acquisition can be done by interfacing the set-up with computer using software. Software allows the user to have control on data logging, printing the stored data, preparing spread sheets in Excel etc.
