Industrial filtration

Service of filter plates

We supply and service filter plates for plate-and-frame filter presses from various manufacturers. Where needed, we also modify plates, fit filter cloths and install them on site. We plan each service around the specific filter press, plate design and operating conditions.

What does the filter plate service include

Filter plate service involves more than replacing a worn component. The work depends on the filter press design, plate type, plate arrangement and operating requirements. Alongside supplying plates, we can handle installation, modifications and compatibility with the filter cloths.

What we can provide

We most often handle:

  • supply of new plates for different types of filter press
  • replacement and installation of plates in existing equipment
  • modification to suit the machine and its design constraints
  • fitting filter cloths to plates
  • coordination with the filter press, plate arrangement and operating requirements

Example of service intervention

The service example describes supplying new filter plates for a press with an automatic plate-shifting system, together with high-efficiency filter cloths. The plates arrived in a standard design and were then adapted to the specific operating conditions.

Specific range of modifications

  • shortening of the ears due to the movable cover
  • mounting of plates screws with blanks for connecting the plates used to separate the plates
  • mounting of filter plates filter cloths
  • own mounting of plates to filter press at the customer

Replacing filter plates during service intervention

When replacing the plate, it is necessary to align it with the filter press construction, the separation and the subsequent filter cloth.

What documents do we need for service

To design a service procedure, we usually need to know:

  • type filter press and device manufacturer
  • size and type of filter plates
  • method of sorting filter plates and design limitations of equipment
  • whether it is a replacement, modification or new installation
  • a follow up to filter cloths and an operational issue that needs to be resolved
