Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement and a device for filtering a fluid, particularly for plastic processing plants, wherein the pressure drop, or the flow rate reduction, created by the withdrawal of material from the process is sensitively balanced in that pressure constancy and flow rate constancy are achieved at the discharge duct (3).

Abstract: A plate filtering device (10) for plastic melts has at least two stationary housing components (7, 9) with a movable plate (4) with a filter insert (5) disposed between them. A locking bushing (6) that extends up to the movable plate is placed at the downstream housing component (9), and its inner recess forms a part of the flow channel. A seal bushing (3) that can be pressed against the movable plate (4) and/or the filter insert (5) is located in movable fashion in the front housing component (7). A funnel area (3.2) is formed on the side facing away from the filter insert (5). A sealing ring (2) is located between the sealing bushing (3) and a retaining ring (1). The sealing ring exhibits at least one angled conical surface (2.1) and one face area (2.2) that is oriented at a right angle to the direction of fluid flow. At the seal bushing (3), an effective pressure area (3.1, 3.1?, 3.1?) that extends into the flow channel (8) is formed within the inner width of the sealing ring (2).

Abstract: A device for filtering a liquid synthetic material. The device has a housing, a feed channel, a discharge channel, and backflow channels. The feed duct is subdivided into split-feed channels (2A, 2B). The cross-section of the orifice of the split-feed channels, where they open into the filter chambers, is smaller than the normal cross-section of the feed channels.
