Thermostatic valve

The Danfoss BVTS valve, available from Peerless, is designed for protection of biomass boilers, stoves and solar systems. The valve has two functions: Overheat protection -- if the water temperature exceeds 95°C, the valve opens and hot water is discharged from the boiler or the built-in heat exchanger; and protection against back-burning -- if the temperature in the fuel feed system rises above 95°C, the valve will dispense water to extinguish fire.

Filtration unit

The WesTech Rotary Table Vacuum Filter is a continuous filtration unit ideal for handling large flow rates. The horizontal orientation of the rotary table enables a thick filter cake to form on the surface. The filter features a uniquely designed cake discharge system that utilizes an extraction screw mechanism to remove the dewatered cake from the table and deposit it into a hopper. After discharge, the filter cloths are carefully washed and the filtration process continues. The WesTech Rotary Table Vacuum Filter is an ideal alternative to horizontal belt filters, rotary drum vacuum filters and filter presses.
