The present invention relates to a rotary pressure filter comprising a filter drum, a housing, and at least one separating element which divides a process chamber in a gas-tight manner into a plurality of process portions. A sensor is arranged on the side of at least one separating element that faces the housing. The sensor comprises a coil and a rod which is arranged inside the coil. The rod is designed to be displaced in the coil on the basis of a change in the distance of the separating element from the sensor. The invention further relates to a method for detecting wear of a separating element of a rotary pressure filter.

A vacuum and/or pressure filtration device includes a filter drum defining a drum axis and it is supported rotatably around the drum axis. The filter drum includes an outer jacket, by which a plurality of filter cells are formed, which extend along the drum axis, which are arranged adjacent to each other all around the drum axis, and which are equipped on their outer side with a filter medium; and an inner jacket, which is arranged adjacent to the outer jacket, which has an inner jacket outer surface, which limits the filter cells radially inside such that by the inner jacket outer surface a plurality of draining surfaces are formed, on which the liquid passing through the respective filter medium during filtration of the suspension can drain as a filtrate. The filtration device filters a suspension having solid and liquid components.

The present invention relates to a filtering panel (100) for a disk filter and a disk filter for water purification, comprising a metal filter cloth (16, 116) such as a stainless steel filter cloth, pre-tensioned in both warp and weft directions and fastened to a frame (10, 110) comprising a peripheral portion (11, 111), which is integral with an inner grillwork (12) and which divides the inner area of the peripheral portion (11, 111) into fields (15, 115). The frame (10, 110) comprises a plastic material reinforced with glass fibers or carbon fibres such as polypropylene loaded with fibreglass in an amount of at least 20 weight percent. Each field of the grillwork (12, 112) has an area not exceeding 10% of the inner area of the peripheral portion (11, 111). The pre-tensioning of the filter cloth (16, 116) in both directions is from at least 20% of the yield stress of the cloth (16, 116). Further the present invention relates to a disk filter comprising said filtering panels (100) and method of making said filtering panel (100).
