The present invention provides an electrolyte feed system for feeding an individual supply of electrolyte to electrolytic cells in a filter press cell circuit. The system includes a primary electrolyte feed line, having one closed end and a plurality of outlets, or orifices, therein spaced along the length of the line. The primary feed line is encased in a larger, secondary feed line. The secondary feed line has a plurality of outlets, or orifices, therein spaced along its length corresponding to the outlets in the primary feed line. In a preferred embodiment, the feed lines are circular in cross-section and are in the form of pipes or tubes. The outlets in the primary and secondary feed lines are spacedly aligned, and the outlets in the secondary feed line are communicatively connected with the electrolyte inlets in the cell compartments of the individual cells in the cell circuit. Preferably, the outlets in the secondary feed line and the inlets in the cell compartments are approximately the same size and the outlets in the primary feed line are substantially smaller.In operation, a supply of electrolyte enters the system through the primary feed line and initially fills both the primary feed line and the secondary feed line. The incoming electrolyte is jetted through the smaller outlets of the primary feed line, through the internal space between the primary and secondary feed lines, through the outlets in the secondary feed line and into the electrolyte compartments. The relatively small openings of the outlets in the primary feed line minimize the adverse effect that a drop in pressure in the electrolytic source line would have on the electrolyte level in the electrolyte in the electrolyte compartment of the cell circuit. If the outlets in the primary feed line do become clogged, the electrolyte compartments receive a supply of electrolyte from the secondary feed line.
