Description
WIRES Stainless Steel Bag Filter Housing
The WIRES bag filter housing is a vertical pressure vessel designed for high-flow liquid filtration using standard size #1 or #2 filter bags. The vessel features a side-inlet / side-outlet nozzle arrangement that directs flow evenly across the filter bag, maximizing effective filtration area and reducing pressure drop. A removable internal basket supports the filter bag and prevents collapse under differential pressure. The bolted cover flange with lifting eye allows quick bag change-out without special tools. All wetted parts are 304 or 316L stainless steel for corrosion resistance in chemical processing, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and water treatment applications.
Key Features
- Available in single-bag up to 24-bag configurations (#1 or #2 bag size)
- 304 or 316L stainless steel wetted parts with mirror or brushed finish
- Bolted cover flange with lifting eye for safe, quick bag replacement
