General
The Eimco AgiDisc Filters are best used when dewatering free-settling solids to form a non-binding cake. The Agidisc filter provides maximum filtration area with minimum cost and operating space. Agidisc Filters are made of several parallel discs, each with a series of sectors radiating from a center barrel. Each sector is covered individually with a filter cloth (or metal screen) selected for the specific application. Positive connections between sectors and center barrel are assured by use of a one-piece, rubber-covered steel ferrule with integral gasket.
