Synox 2.0 PS

For stabilisation of beer and other beverages with higher reliability and lower operating costs. 

Synox PS

The Synox 2.0 PS is an especially developed version of our market-leading kieselguhr candle filters, and uses the same robust and reliable, patented Stabox candles.  

Recognising the serious shortcomings of “traditional” horizontal pressure-leaf PVPP filters, the Synox PS is based on two decades of positive experience with candle filters. The new and patented inlet distributor allows superior flow control. 

Higher reliability: 

  • Stable and long-life filter elements (non-fouling, welded, steel wedge-wire lasting 15+ years without deterioration) 

  • Simple and reliable process concept (constant hydraulic conditions) 

  • No moving parts and few elastomer seals 

Lower operating costs: 

  • Lower PVPP losses compared to horizontal leaf filters – short regeneration and total downtimes 

  • Infrequent, semi-skilled maintenance 

  • High productivity and low specific costs 

  • Lower investment costs compared to horizontal leaf filters: 

  • Special foundations not needed 

  • Optimised (smaller & simpler) design 

  • Reduced first charge (fill) of PVPP 

The Synox 2.0 PS is designed for economical treatment of beer and other beverages by using regenerable PVPP to achieve a long shelf-life, where the PVPP is regenerated in situ. Expensive sacrificial (single-use) PVPP is eliminated. Even for moderate production capacities, the required investment can be amortised in a short time-scale.
