Abstract

A clamping device (1) is provided for cartridge filtration modules (2) that have a distribution plate (3) with a feed channel (18), a retentate channel (21), a filtrate channel, and a first contact surface (8). At least one filter cartridge can be clamped between a contact surface (8) of the distribution plate (3) and a clamping surface (29) of a clamping plate (4) that can be moved orthogonally to the contact surface (8). The cartridge filtration modules (2) can be stacked on one another in an area of their distribution plates (3). A common distribution plate (3) for adjacent filter cartridge arrangements can clamped against the contact surface (8). Adjacent filter cartridge arrangements can be connected in a parallel circuit via the distribution plate (3), and the cartridge filtration modules (2) that can be stacked on top of one another can be connected in series via the distribution plates (3).
