Membrane (Diaphragm) Plate
Membrane Filter Plate
Membrane (diaphragm) filter plates squeeze the cake after filling for a drier cake and a shorter cycle. A flexible PP, TPE or rubber membrane inflates with water or air against the cake. Sizes 320–2000 mm, made to match your press.

Description
A membrane plate works like a recessed plate, but its face is a flexible diaphragm. Once the chamber is full, the membrane is inflated with water or air and squeezes the cake, driving out more liquid than feed pressure alone. The result is a drier cake and a shorter cycle, which cuts moisture, disposal cost and downstream drying. Membrane plates can be mixed with recessed plates in the same press.
When to use
- A drier cake is needed to cut moisture and disposal cost
- A shorter filtration cycle raises throughput
- Cake moisture must be consistent across the batch
- Haulage or incineration cost depends on how wet the cake is
When not to use
- General dewatering where cost is the priority — a recessed chamber plate is simpler
- The slurry runs hotter than the membrane allows or is chemically aggressive — use a special-material plate
- Very thin cakes or polishing duty — use plate and frame
Options
- Membrane material: polypropylene, TPE or rubber, to suit temperature and media
- Water or air squeeze
- Mixed sets of membrane and recessed plates in one press
- Feed and filtrate ports drilled to match your existing press
- Custom plate sizes on request
Features
- Membrane squeezes the cake for lower moisture and faster cycles
- PP, TPE or rubber membranes for different temperatures and media
- Can be mixed with recessed plates in one press
- Water or air squeeze
- Made to match your existing membrane or recessed press
Applications
- Mining tailings where haulage and disposal cost depend on cake moisture
- Palm oil mills — POME and sludge where a drier cake is wanted
- Chemical and metallurgical precipitates
- Wastewater sludge bound for landfill or incineration
- Any duty where a drier cake shortens the cycle
Materials
- Reinforced or virgin polypropylene plate body
- Polypropylene, TPE or rubber membrane
