Trapezoidal one-piece replacement filter cloth with rubber edge, compatible with UCEGO table filter cells

In short

R+F FilterElements GmbH manufactures compatible replacement filter cloths for UCEGO® table filters: one trapezoidal cloth per cell, cut in one piece without welded seams, in woven monofilament PET or PP, heat-set and calendered, with the edge for the rubber fixing made to your drawing or sample. With every proposal you receive full technical values — weight, thread count, yarn diameter, air permeability, tensile strength and dimensional change at operating temperature.

About the UCEGO® Table Filter

According to publicly available information, the UCEGO® table filter is a horizontal vacuum filter with a single rotating table divided into 30 or 36 cells with 3 or 4 troughs. Slurry is distributed on the table, the cake is washed by counter-current flood washing and discharged by a screw conveyor.

Main applications are phosphoric acid (separation of phosphogypsum), potash slimes, aluminium hydrate and phosphate rock beneficiation. Every cell carries its own trapezoidal filter cloth — so cloth quality directly determines filtration rate, filtrate clarity, washing efficiency and downtime.

Typical Requirements We Meet

Requirements we regularly see in inquiries and tenders for table filter cloths in phosphoric acid plants:

  • Trapezoidal cloth in one piece — no welded or joined seams
  • Fixing on all four sides by a rubber connection
  • PET monofilament, heat-set and calendered
  • Balanced warp and weft strength, high minimum tensile strength
  • High air permeability with retention of fine gypsum crystals
  • Minimal dimensional change at operating temperature
  • High abrasion resistance, low tendency to blinding and fouling
  • Easy cleaning by water spray on the cake side

Exact values are agreed per project. Test standards (e.g. for air permeability, tensile strength and dimensional change) as specified in your tender.

What Our Proposal Contains

  • •Material and recommended weave
  • •Weight (g/m²)
  • •Warp / weft thread count
  • •Yarn diameters
  • •Air permeability
  • •Tensile strength warp / weft
  • •Dimensional change at operating temperature
  • •Edge execution and fixing
  • •Suitability statement for your process

What We Need From You

  • •Number of cells (30 or 36) and troughs
  • •Cloth drawing or a used cloth as sample
  • •Edge / rubber fixing details
  • •Current cloth data (if known)
  • •Process: product, operating temperature, particle size
  • •Required filtrate quality
  • •Quantity: cloths and spare sets
  • •Tender specification (if any)

FAQ — UCEGO® Table Filter Cloths

Can I buy replacement filter cloths for a UCEGO® table filter from an independent manufacturer?

Yes. R+F FilterElements manufactures compatible replacement filter cloths for UCEGO® table filters as an independent filter media manufacturer. The cloths are made to the cell geometry and fixing of your filter. They are not original (OEM) parts, and we are not affiliated with Technip Energies or ANDRITZ.

Which cloth is used on a UCEGO® table filter?

In phosphoric acid / phosphogypsum service, table filters typically run woven monofilament polyester (PET) cloths — in some processes polypropylene (PP) — heat-set and calendered. Each cell carries a trapezoidal sector cloth, usually fixed by a rubber connection along its edges. We propose the exact construction based on your process data.

How many cloths does a UCEGO® table filter need?

According to publicly available information, UCEGO® table filters are divided into 30 or 36 cells — one cloth per cell. Plants usually order a complete set plus spare cloths. Tell us the number of cells and the quantity you need.

Can the cloths be made in one piece without welded seams?

Yes. We cut each sector cloth in one piece to the trapezoidal cell shape, so there is no welded or sewn joint in the filtering area. The edge for the rubber fixing is executed according to your drawing or a sample of the installed cloth.

Which technical values do you state in your proposal?

We state the material, weave, weight, warp and weft thread count, yarn diameters, air permeability, tensile strength in warp and weft, and the expected dimensional change at operating temperature — together with our recommendation why the construction suits your process.
