Filter module of sheet filter elements

摘要

The filter module (FM) comprises two rows or two stacks of filter cutouts (16) of so-called filter sheets (FS) and support elements (17) arranged in between in the form of relatively coarse synthetic cloth or plastic mesh sections (17) having a draining action. Each two neighbouring filter cutouts (16) and intermediate support element (17) are held by a sealing element (32) in the form of a durable plastic composition applied in the liquid state, while the opposite edge of the two filter cutouts (16) joined on the outside remains open to the inner fluid space (14') in the plane of the support element (17). Accordingly, the edges in a zigzag manner on both sides are alternately sealed or, in the plane of the support element (17), are left open to the fluid space (19) of a surrounding housing (9) or to the inner fluid space (14') of the filter module (FM). Two stacks are connected at a distance to form the inner fluid space (14') via lateral sealing elements (22) and top and bottom connecting plates (27) to form a parallelepipedal or column-shaped hollow body and can be charged via connection adaptors at the connection plates (27) either in one direction or in the other direction with fluid, flushing medium, test medium, hot water or gas to be filtered. The filter element built up of filter sheets (FS) can also [lacuna] in combination with integrated filter materials (18) on membrane-... Original abstract incomplete.
