Abstract:
A filtrate collector element includes a hollow body forming a first opening portion, a second opening portion, and an intermediate portion. The intermediate portion forms a conduit between the first opening portion and the second opening portion. The collector element may be coupled with a pressure filter plate element. The outer dimension of the first opening portion is smaller than the inner dimension of the second opening portion, such that first opening portion of a preceding collector element can be at least partly nested in the second opening portion of a subsequent collector element. A pressure filter plate element, a horizontal pressure filter, a method for providing a continuous filtrate conduit and a method for operating a pressure filter are also concerned.

Claim (Index 13):
The method according to  claim 12 , the method further comprising the step of:\n arranging each of the collector elements such that, both in the closed state and the open state, the insides of the hollow bodies of the collector elements in adjacent plate elements form an effectively continuous filtrate duct in the press direction between each adjacent plate element.
