Filter rack/tray pictures

[wegnerwelding]

I can't find any good pictures online of filter racks/trays. Could somebody post a few good pictures of theirs, or any good detailed shot of one? I'd like to start adding them as an option. I have a pretty good idea of how I'd like to make it, but having a few options is always nice to pull from.

Thanks

Are you planning on making them out of SS screen. You want to have as little filter material sitting on the tray as possible. If the tray is 24"x24" and the holes take up 50% of the filter area your filter is 12"x 24' so go with woven screen it gets the filter cloth up off the tray

I got some of these fro alot less than this price. I think they would work good setting on a couple SS 3/8 rods with the flat filter laying over them...

I have some 1/4" stainless perf screen that I was going to use. I was going to try that or some 1/2" stainless perf screen.

The two dont go together in my mind Dont you mean perf. sheet. Screen is woven from round wire. The wire allows for the best filter surface. The perf sheet has alot of dead space on the filter cloth.

I would think wire screen or expanded metal would be best. By the way, emailed you about this very subject today, before I saw this thread.

If anybody has pictures would be nice. I would like to find a sorce of this wire screen for a filter tray as I found out with pressing apples that the metal between the holes cuts down on the filtering. You get all these nice round spots where the filter plugs at the holes.

I have to pick up some more stainless tomorrow anyway, so I'll see what they have at the supply house.
