Abstract
The present invention relates to a rotary pressure filter comprising a filter drum, a housing, and at least one separating element which divides a process chamber in a gas-tight manner into a plurality of process portions. A sensor is arranged on the side of at least one separating element that faces the housing. The sensor comprises a coil and a rod which is arranged inside the coil. The rod is designed to be displaced in the coil on the basis of a change in the distance of the separating element from the sensor. The invention further relates to a method for detecting wear of a separating element of a rotary pressure filter.
