June 2014 saw a significant investment in new polypropylene plates for the number 2 filter press.
Polyprop plates replace the original iron plates
All the old plates removed and new ones already hung
Loading the new plates into position
The plates require some adjustment to get them into place
Bolted into position
Rollers added
Tightened with a torque wrench
Filter cloths added
Stretched into position
Tied into place
Ready to go into action (unfortunately they will never be this clean again)
And they work well
