A chamber filter plate is a component of a filter press used for solid-liquid separation processes. Filter presses typically consist of a series of filter plates and frames arranged alternately. Each filter plate has a cavity or chamber where the solids are collected during the filtration process.

Here are the main components and features of a chamber filter plate:

Plate Structure: Chamber filter plates are usually flat, rectangular plates made of materials such as polypropylene, stainless steel, or cast iron. They are designed to withstand the pressure exerted during the filtration process.

Filtering Surface: The filtering surface of a chamber filter plate is covered with a filter cloth or filter membrane. This porous material allows liquid to pass through while retaining solid particles, facilitating the separation of solids from liquids.

Recessed Cavities: Chamber filter plates have recessed cavities or chambers on their surfaces. These chambers collect the solids or filter cake formed during the filtration process. The size and depth of the chambers can vary depending on the specific requirements of the application.

Feeding Ports: Each chamber filter plate is equipped with feeding ports or inlets through which the slurry or suspension to be filtered is introduced into the filter press. These ports are typically located along the edges of the plates and allow for uniform distribution of the feed across the filtering surface.

Filtrate Channels: Filtrate channels or grooves are often incorporated into the design of chamber filter plates. These channels allow the filtrate (liquid) collected from the filtration process to flow out of the filter press and be collected for further processing or disposal.

Chamber filter plates play a critical role in the operation of a filter press by providing the necessary support and structure for the filtration process. They are available in various sizes, materials, and configurations to suit different applications and process requirements in industries such as wastewater treatment, mining, chemical processing, and pharmaceuticals.
