FLSmidth Filter Plate

PRIMARY USES

1. Large-Scale Industrial Filtration and Slurry Dewatering

Primary Use: High-performance filter plates form the core of FLSmidth Automatic Filter Presses and are used for solid-liquid separation in large-scale mining, mineral processing, and industrial applications. Essential for dewatering mineral concentrates, tailings, and other process slurries to recover valuable solids and produce clean water.

How it helps: For process engineers and plant operators, FLSmidth filter plates deliver efficient cake formation and filtration performance across a wide range of applications. The innovative Maxa™ Filter Plate, developed specifically for the M1500 and M2020 AFP series, delivers up to 10% more volume, improved filtration times, and a longer plate lifecycle compared to conventional designs. The plates are available in sizes from 900 x 900 mm up to 2500 x 2500 mm, with recessed or membrane plate configurations to suit specific process requirements.

2. Advanced Plate Technology for Improved Performance

Primary Use: FLSmidth filter plates feature optimised geometry and engineering to resolve common issues related to plate performance, including area, volume, flow, and durability.

How it helps: The Maxa Filter Plate incorporates several design enhancements: expanded filtration surface area improves throughput; greater chamber volume allows for increased cake mass per cycle; increased filtrate port area reduces velocity of filtrate and cake blow air, extending plate life; and engineered port locations and size promote filtrate flow while eliminating areas that fatigue filter media. The streamlined plate anatomy addresses common points of cloth failure, with air for cake blow introduced at lower velocity to reduce abrasion and improved pip design providing more consistent cloth support.

SECONDARY USES

1. High-Volume Tailings Treatment: The AFP2525 filter press processes up to 300 tonnes per hour with a single filter, delivering up to 95% water recovery and less than 10% residual moisture in filter cake.

2. Chemical and Industrial Filtration: Applications include wastewater treatment, pulp and paper, food processing, pharmaceutical production, and chemical manufacturing.

3. High-Temperature Applications: Special materials including high-temperature polypropylene and Kynar are available for applications requiring elevated temperature resistance.

4. Corrosive Environments: Stainless steel and non-ferrous metal plate materials are available for aggressive chemical applications.

SAFETY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Always wear appropriate PPE, including safety goggles, hard hats, hearing protection, gloves, and steel-toed boots when handling or installing filter plates.

Lockout/Tagout: Always isolate and lock out the filter press from its hydraulic, pneumatic, and electrical power sources before beginning any maintenance or installation work.

Lifting: Use appropriate lifting equipment for heavy plate components. Individual plates may weigh hundreds of kilograms, especially in larger presses.

Access: Use integrated maintenance platforms for safe access. Overhead beam designs offer better visibility and access to plates, improving safety during maintenance.

Training requirement: Maintenance personnel must be properly trained on the safe and correct procedures for handling and installing filter plates on the specific FLSmidth filter press model.

2. FIRST AID MEASURES

Eye Exposure: If slurry or chemicals splash into the eyes, flush immediately with plenty of clean water for at least 15 minutes, holding eyelids open. Seek medical attention.

Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash exposed skin with soap and water. If irritation develops or chemical burns occur, seek medical attention.

Inhalation: If chemical fumes or dust are inhaled, move to fresh air. If symptoms persist (coughing, difficulty breathing), seek medical attention.

3. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Flammability: Filter plates (polypropylene) are combustible. Use extinguishing media appropriate for plastic fires. Electrical equipment may be involved.
