SCF 400mm Filter Trolley

Maximize Your Filtration Workflow with the SCF Filter Trolley 400mm

Revolutionize your filtration process with this Trolley  — a high-capacity, mobile system purpose-built for today’s demanding industrial environments. Whether you're extracting lithium, processing botanical compounds, or refining chemicals, this robust and user-friendly filter trolley is designed to optimize productivity, reduce downtime, and deliver consistent results with minimal manual input.

From small pilot labs to large-scale production floors, it provides an efficient, scalable solution that adapts seamlessly to a wide variety of applications. Its thoughtful engineering, premium components, and smart design make it a vital asset for any facility requiring precision  at scale.

Smart, Scalable Filtration for Critical Applications

Built with industrial operators in mind, this mobile trolley integrates Buchner-style depth filtration into a heavy-duty, transportable format. It’s not just a filter—it’s an ecosystem designed for speed, cleanliness, and control. It excels at removing lipids, waxes, fine clays, carbon particulates, and insoluble solids from both liquid and slurry mixtures.

Its capacity to handle large volumes of material while maintaining precise control over filtration quality makes it ideal for industries such as pharmaceutical manufacturing, botanical extraction, chemical refinement, food and beverage processing, and even emerging sectors like lithium battery recycling.

Cleaner Output, Lower Downtime

The heart of the Trolley lies in its depth filtration mechanism. Unlike surface filters that clog quickly, it traps contaminants throughout the full thickness of the media. This provides a significantly higher holding capacity, supports continuous operation for longer intervals, and leads to improved flow dynamics without the need for constant monitoring or paper changes.

The secure, leak-resistant seal around the filter paper is enhanced by reusable, chemical-resistant gaskets. This not only prevents bypass and contamination but also enables quick, mess-free filter changes. It’s an ideal setup for labs and production floors where operational efficiency, cleanliness, and throughput matter.

Built to Move, Built to Last

The trolley-mounted configuration is more than a convenience — it’s a game-changer. With industrial-grade casters and a compact footprint, this mobile filter system can be wheeled effortlessly across facilities, even in tight spaces. The housing is constructed from high-impact, FDA food-grade polypropylene, which resists cracking, warping, and chemical degradation even under extreme cold or corrosive conditions.

Whether you’re working with ethanol, hexane, or other aggressive solvents (except Pentane), this trolley is up for the challenge. It’s a true plug-and-play unit engineered for demanding, real-world use.

Safety and Compliance at the Forefront

The Trolley includes a Debem 1/2" AODD pump, housed in durable polypropylene and outfitted with PTFE diaphragms for excellent chemical resistance. The entire setup is C1D2 compliant and ATEX Zone 2 rated, making it a safe choice for explosive or hazardous environments where electric pumps may pose a risk.

Since the system runs on compressed air, it eliminates the need for external vacuum pumps or electrical wiring — an advantage not just in safety, but also in operational simplicity and flexibility. This makes it especially valuable in GMP facilities and explosion-sensitive areas.
