Squeeze Indicator

	Indication of termination of      membrane squeezing process.            Localisation and indication of leakages	» PDF | Video

• The squeeze indicator comprises a polypropylene body including a specially
  engineered inspection glass
• The indicator acts according to suspended flow meter principle.
• Squeeze indicator is mounted in the press medium line of each
  membrane plate or can be integrated in the membrane plate directly.
• The Indicator moves back to equilibrium position in case there is no
  press medium flow and visually indicates termination of squeezing.
• As long as filtercake is compressible the press medium flow does not
  stop and indicator remains in a non-equilibrium position indicating
  that squeezing is still ongoing.
• In case of a defect membrane the indicator remains in non-equilibrium
  position for this plate.

• Suitable for squeeze pressures up to 20 bar (media: air, water)
• Minimizing cycle time by direct indication of squeeze process end
  with optimization of daily output
• Savings in energy consumption (compressed air etc.)
• Fast and reliable detection of membrane failure and thus:
  less downtime
  optimization of overall operating costs
• Safety feature avoiding potential differential pressures due to
  membrane failure
• Can be retrofitted to existing membrane filter plates
• Direct electronic read-out possible
