OF FILTER AREA PRECOAT RATE = 0.5 TO 1.5 GPM/SQ. FT. OF FILTER AREA PROCESS SOLIDS PRECOATING REQUIRES 0.1 TO 0.2 PERCENT SOLIDS CONCENTRATION SCHOONOVER, INC.

HORIZONTAL PLATE FILTER SCAVENGER & NON-SCAVENGER TYPE TROUBLE SHOOTING THE SPARKLER HORIZONTAL PLATE FILTER SCAVENGER & NON-SCAVENGER TYPE SCHOONOVER, INC.

A LACK OF FILTRATE CLARITY IS GENERALLY DUE TO LEAKING SEALS THE ONLY SEALS EFFECTING CLARITY ARE: THE OUTLET GASKET THE OUTER RING AND CENTER HUB OF EACH PLATE LEAKS AT THESE SEALS ARE DUE TO ERRORS IN FILTER ASSEMBLY, IMPROPER MEDIA PLACEMENT, OR DAMAGED FILTER COMPONENTS. OTHER POSSIBLE CAUSES: WRONG FILTER AID WRONG MEDIA (FILTER PAPER) WRONG TIE ROD TORQUE WRONG PROCEDURES LEAKS AT THE COVER GASKET OR TIE ROD SOCKET GASKETS DO NOT EFFECT CLARITY SCHOONOVER, INC.

IF FILTRATE DOES NOT CLEAR IN 10 - 15 MINUTES CORRECTIVE ACTION CHECK OUTLET GASKET AT EACH FILTER CHANGE. CHECK THAT MEDIA IS PLACED PROPERLY ON EACH PLATE. CHECK CONDITION OF FILTER PLATES, SCREENS AND CUPS. CHECK TIE ROD TORQUE. CHECK THAT THE BAFFLE ON THE PLATES FACES THE INLET NOZZLE CHECK PROCEDURES FAST FILLING OF THE FILTER TANK CAN TEAR FILTER PAPER. FAST FILLING CAN BLIND UPPER FILTER PLATES AND RESULT IN POOR PRECOATING. SLOW PRECOATING CAN PRODUCE POOR PRECOAT DISTRIBUTION. IF FILTRATE DOES NOT CLEAR IN 10 - 15 MINUTES STOP YOU HAVE A PROBLEM ! SCHOONOVER, INC.

SIGNS OF TROUBLE BLEED THROUGH, CHECK PLATE RING, HUB AND CENTER CUP FOR DAMAGE. TEARS AROUND CENTER HOLE INDICATE FAST FILLING PROBLEM SCHOONOVER, INC.

SIGNS OF TROUBLE CAKE EROSION DUE TO UNALIGNED BAFFLE THIN CAKE TOWARD CENTER DUE TO SLOW FLOW SCHOONOVER, INC.
