(b) Only one type of 48-in. plate and frame is sub-mitted, in view of the more restricted range ofapplication of this size. After careful considerationof the conditions to be met in the case of those userswho asked for such plates and frames, and also ofthe probable uses for which they may morecommonly be required, it has been decided to adopta top-feed in an external lug, to be suitable eitherfor cloth sleeves or rubber-joint rings.

This in-volves the use of an upper trough, but permits thefullest control of washing efficiency. It will bepossible to use these wash-outlets and air-cocks asadditional filtrate-outlets.
