LKSF
The Alfa Laval LKSF Slot Strainer is a filter which separates solid matter from liquid that flows through it. The impurities are stopped by the filter element. When the filter is full of particles, it can be cleaned by removing the clamp and pulling out the filter element.

How it works
Type LKSF-BL: The product enters from the bottom. The filter element captures impurities. When the filter is full of particles, it can be cleaned by removing the clamp and pulling out the filter element. It is also possible to reverse the flow and flush out the impurities (backflush). Type LKSF-CL: The product enters the filter from the side. Most of the impurities collect at the bottom and can be manually emptied during operation via a valve. Automatic discharge is also possible using two remote controlled valves at B. The upper valve is open during operation and the lower is closed. The impurities will collect between the two valves. Closing the upper valve and opening the lower one will empty the impurities with minimal product loss. The filter can be cleaned as LKSF-BL. The degree of filtering can be altered by changing filter element. Strainer type LKSFCL must always be installed vertically. The filtration degree may be immediately adjusted by changing the strainer element.
