Figure 2 – Torn Filter Media from mechanical abrasion Installation misalignment or improper fitting: Creases or wrinkles in the filter media during installation or that develop during operation will eventually cause uneven wear and abrade a hole in the filter media along that wrinkled seam. Filter plate shifting: As the plates are moved into position during filter closing, elements may cause a misalignment of two adjacent plates. During filter filling the slurry could exit between the misaligned plates, abrading a hole in one of the joined filter cloths.
