Sil-Kleer Filter Powder
Precoat Filter Aid

TECHNICAL INFORMATION OF SIL-KLEER

When using Silbrico SIL-KLEER filter aid in place of other products, different operating procedures may be required. Silbrico SIL-KLEER should be used on a volumetric basis, (i.e.: bag for bag), because Silbrico SIL-KLEER is considerabley lighter than most other filter aid products. Actual operating procedures, grades and quantities can best be determined by testing.
