Description

The uPVC bag filter housing is a robust filtration solution designed to remove suspended solids and particulate matter from water and other compatible liquids. The housing accommodates a replaceable filter bag that captures suspended particles as water passes through the filtration media. The double-length configuration provides a larger filtration area and greater dirt-holding capacity than shorter bag-filter housings, making it suitable for applications requiring higher flow rates or longer filtration intervals.

The housing is manufactured from uPVC, providing good corrosion resistance for a wide range of water-treatment applications. The housing is fitted with stainless-steel bolts for secure assembly and reliable operation. In addition the housing features 2″ DN50 flanged inlet and outlet connections, as well as a ¼” BSP air vent connection. A ¼” BSP pressure-gauge connection is also provided, although the pressure gauge is not included.

The bag filter housing is suitable for use as a pre-filtration stage before equipment such as water softeners, reverse osmosis systems, UV systems, pumps and other downstream water-treatment equipment.

Why choose a uPVC double-length bag filter housing?

• Effective sediment filtration: Helps remove suspended solids and particulate matter from the water supply.
• Larger filtration capacity: The double-length design accommodates larger filter bags for increased dirt-holding capacity.
• Corrosion resistant: uPVC construction provides good resistance to corrosion in suitable water-treatment applications.
• Easy maintenance: The filter bag can be removed and replaced when it becomes loaded with sediment.
• Multiple configurations: Available with different bag sizes, flow capacities and pressure ratings to suit different installations.
• Protects downstream equipment: Helps reduce the amount of sediment reaching pumps, membranes, UV systems and other treatment equipment.
• Pre-treatment solution: Can be installed as an effective first-stage filtration system before additional water-treatment equipment.
• Durable construction: Stainless-steel bolts provide secure assembly and reliable service.
• High flow capability: Selected configurations can accommodate flow rates of up to 23 m³/h under suitable operating conditions.
• Practical design: The housing provides a simple, reliable and serviceable solution for applications requiring replaceable filter bags.
• Versatile applications: Suitable for residential, commercial and light industrial water-treatment systems.
