Micronics prides itself on providing Filter Plates and related accessories for many industries. Below are some common types of Plates. In addition, we have links to more Filter Plate literature at the bottom of the page.
Recess Filter Plates
There are 3 basic types of Recess Plates; Open Filtrate,
Closed Filtrate, and Gasketted. They are available
for sidebar or overhead press designs. Mounting
hangers or side handles can accommodate any brand
of filter.

Membrane Filter Plates
Membrane Filter Press Plates are used to reduce
the cake moisture content or shorten the filtration
cycle time. They may be retrofit to existing filters.

Vacuum Membrane Filter Plates
Vacuum Filter Plates are similar to membrane filter
plates but designed to operate at elevated temperatures.
After filtration the chamber below the drainage
surface is inflated with hot water. A vacuum is
then applied within the filtration chamber and draws
out moisture to produce a "bone dry" filter
cake.

Plate & Frame
Plate & Frame filter plates are the oldest
design and the predecessor to recessed plates. The
chamber is formed by a flat plate on each side of
a frame. Cake is collected in the frame. This type
of plate is usually used for polishing applications
when filtration area is more important than volume
