Product Data

Description

Description

This machine is the most economical, one of the smallest footprints. This is for users not as concerned about solids and performance, the BP6000 gets the job done. It’s the lowest cost model. 

The BP6000 is most comparable to other belt filter presses, it’s a worldwide known standard style of the belt filter press. It is known throughout the world for its base-level performance and setting the standard. This is one of the most highly recognized belt filter presses that you’d be familiar with. In addition to the standard size horizontal press, we also offer a short-deck model for the shorter footprint but still maintain all the features and benefits of the original model. Charter strives to meet the needs of their clients whether it is the typical hot-dipped galvanized frame with stainless steel components or complete stainless-steel models. Our BP 6000 system can be the ideal solution for your sludge water dewatering needs.

BP6000 HS (12 Roll) Belt Press

Our BP6000 HS (High Solid) 12 Roll is an enlarged version of the BP6000. Four additional rollers (12 total) provide more retention time, allowing for additional shearing and pressure. Depending on the solids processed, this could increase cake solids by 2 to 5 percent.

Features

Features

Center Pivot Tracking

Charter Machine utilizes a Pneumatic / Hydraulic controlled center pivot align­ment system. This design reduces belt stretching, lengthens belt life and pro­vides a more consistent performance over the life of the belt.

Belt Tensioning

Pneumatic / Hydraulically controlled rigid tension­ing assembly adjusts and maintains belt tension with parallel movement for extended belt life.

One Piece Bearings

Charter Machine utilizes Rilsan Nylon coated one-piece solid pillow block bearing housings with gasketed end plate. Self-aligning dou­ble-row spherical bearings with quadruple lip seals. The contact surface of the shafts shall have a 60 micrometer polished finish to increase seal life and each stub shaft shall be held in place with a lock ring to guarantee alignment.

Plow Grid

Pneumatic / Hydraulic actua­tor lifts or lowers entire plow assembly for easier cleaning, eliminating systems manually lifting each row of plows. Plows “float” on belt and can be replaced with­out the use of tools.
