Top Filter

The Top Filter is designed to efficiently separate dust from displaced air in silos, bins, hoppers, and storage systems. It ensures clean air discharge, protects the working environment, and maintains smooth product handling operations throughout the plant.

The Top Filter is an essential filtration solution used on top of storage silos, surge bins, weighing hoppers, and product holding vessels in modern flour mills, semolina plants, feed mills, and grain processing facilities. Its primary function is to filter dust particles from the air displaced during product filling and transfer operations, preventing dust emissions while maintaining proper airflow within the system.

During silo filling, large volumes of air are displaced by the incoming product. Without proper filtration, this air can carry fine dust particles into the surrounding environment, creating hygiene, safety, and maintenance concerns. The Top Filter captures these particles and allows only clean air to be released, helping maintain a cleaner production environment and supporting workplace safety.

Equipped with high-efficiency filter elements and an automatic cleaning system, the Top Filter continuously maintains filtration performance even under demanding operating conditions. Collected product particles are returned directly into the process, minimizing product losses and maximizing operational efficiency.

OZAN Milling Top Filter solutions are engineered to provide reliable dust control, low maintenance requirements, and long-term filtration performance. Their compact design and easy installation make them ideal for both new milling projects and modernization applications.

Working Principle

Dust-laden air enters the filter housing where fine particles are retained by filter bags. Clean air is discharged while the collected dust is periodically removed by the cleaning system.
