Why do you say that? Because the filter plate of the belt Filter Press is used to bear the filtering area of the entire mechanical equipment, so the thickness of the filter plate of the belt filter press is directly related to the size and degree of the filtering area. Generally speaking, the thickness of the filter plate is between 40mm and 90mm, but in some industries we have to adapt to local conditions, and the area of each filter plate will not exceed 45mm. Why is this? Because in some industries, the pressure environment is not very large when using the filter press, so naturally, the area of the filter plate is reduced, and unnecessary waste is also reduced.

There are many kinds of filter plates for belt filter presses, including steel, glass and the most important plastic. Most of the filter plates of filter presses are now made of polyvinyl chloride. The side lengths of the filter plates are generally 250, 320, 450, 630, 800, 1000, 1250, 1600, and 2000mm. The thickness is 45mm, 60mm, and 80mm.

The belt filter press plate can reduce the length of the filter press by 80%, and also reduce the floor space occupied by the filter press, releasing a lot of space. At the same time, it also reduces the load of the Chamber filter press, and the operation of the filter press is more reasonable. For the thickness of 60mm, this is the international standard thickness of the belt filter press plate. Such a thickness has a wide range of operation and can also make the various functions of the filter press reach the highest level. Not only does it make the filtration function work normally at a pressure of up to 25 MPa, but it can also make the filter plate more wear-resistant and pressure-resistant, and can withstand the impact and pressure of solid objects. In addition, when the thickness of the filter plate reaches 60mm, the storage space of the filter plate is also increased, which reduces the number of gap cycles of the filter press and improves the filtering efficiency of the filter press. When the storage volume of the filter cake is increased, the filter cake is effective for the gravity of the filter press, so it will not increase the load on the belt filter press.
