FILTER PRESSES,
Plates & Frames

Ryan Process can supply you with a wide range of filter presses
for industrial and municipal wastewater, water and groundwater.

Filter Press Operation
The two main components of the filter press are the filter plates and the hydraulic cylinder system. The hydraulic cylinder holds all of the filter plates closed, while solids are forming a cake inside the filter plates. Dirty fluid is forced under pressure into the filter chamber by a fluid process pump. Fluid enters in the center of the filter plates, with all chambers being filled simultaneously. The solids are retained by the filter cloth. Once passing through the filter cloth the cleaned fluid then travels to the discharge/air blowdown manifold. The trapped solids form a build-up in each filter chamber called a "cake". Once compacted under maximum pump pressure the cake can be discharged.
