How To Choose The Right Material For Filter Plates?

Filter Plates for chamber filter presses are the most important & critical parts which are primarily chemically resistant & pressure resistance plastic plates made of polypropylene. Installed with the different types of filter cloths these plates are mainly responsible for the liquid/solid separation. Made from special materials which can sustains the maximum temperature of 130 degree to a lower temperature up to 10 degrees and are also available for continuous operation. Depending upon the application and the filtration conditions the plate & cake thickness is freely configurable. The size of the plates vary from 305 mm x 305 mm to 1500 mm x 2000 mm with a cake thickness ranging of 15mm to 50mm and thus allows an optimal adaptation to the filtration tasks.

Polypropylene (PP) is a frequent raw material of filter plate. It has chemical inertness, high resistance against oxidation, corrosive media and high temperature, light weight and high strength.

In addition, UHMW-PE and toughened rubber are specially used in harsher environments for their longer service life, excellent abrasion, chemical stabilities and higher compression strength.
