Information
Whether the head filter element is loose, i.e. movable, or fixed to the head piece/
connection plate of the filter press frame depends on the design of the respective filter
press.
Information
Filter presses can generally be fitted with membrane filter elements or optionally in
combination (alternately) with recessed filter elements or filter plates. The filter elements
must be designed accordingly.
You should therefore only use combinations authorised by LENSER.
