Sparkler filter pad and cloth for horizontal plate pressure filtration

Machine Type

Sparkler Filter Media

Precision-cut filter pads and woven cloths for Sparkler-type horizontal plate filters. Designed for clarity filtration, polishing, and guard filtration in food, beverage, chemical, and pharmaceutical processes.

About Sparkler Filters

Sparkler-type filters are horizontal plate filters consisting of stacked circular filter plates inside a pressure housing. Liquid flows through the filter medium on each plate, with solids retained on the surface. They excel at polishing filtration where high clarity and low solids loading are required.

Available as both woven filter cloths (reusable) and nonwoven filter pads (disposable), Sparkler filters are valued for their simplicity, compact footprint, and consistent filtrate quality. They are widely used in edible oil, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, and speciality chemical applications.

Typical Applications

Edible Oil Polishing
Cosmetics & Fragrances
Pharmaceutical Solutions
Beverage Clarification
Varnish & Lacquer
Electroplating Baths
Specialty Chemicals
Essential Oils
