The different top-mounted filters at a glance

High separation efficiency for use in the food industry – the BVD top-mounted filter
The BVD top-mounted filters are used for the continuous venting of pneumatically filled containers. As cartridge or bag filters, they ensure high separation efficiency of dust and powdered products across nearly all technical applications. They are particularly well suited for use in the food industry. Food-grade filter cartridges or filter bags with bayonet fittings allow for a simple, safe, and tool-free replacement of filter elements.
