WATER PERMEABILITY OF PRESS FABRICS

• This TIP describes the methods and procedure for the measurement of press fabric permeability to water.
• The method is suitable for the evaluation of fabrics on the run, without interrupting the operation of the paper machine. This technique could be used to follow changes in fabric permeability, which occurs during fabric life.
• The method also can be used to measure the cross direction (CD) permeability profile and machine direction permeability variation to identify localized areas of low permeability.
