BAG FILTER HOUSINGSMAJOR BRANDS
EATON
Housing selection is part of the overall system design with the major variances being filter size.
Selection of Bag Filter Housing depends upon the application. Critical selection criteria includes:
- Particulate size to be removed Particle filtration 20 to 200 micrometers, Micro filtration 1 to 20 micro meters or Ultrafiltration 0.01 to 1 micrometer
- Impurity loading of fluid to be filtered
- Desired flow rate
- Nature of fluid, chemical compatibility, viscosity and specific gravity.
- Nature of the process batch verses continuous
The below chart shows the flow rates in cubic meters/hour of water at 20 degrees Celsius for single bag housings.
If flow rates exceed that of a standard size 2 housing multi bag systems are applicable.
| SIZE | FLOW RATE | DIMENSIONS | FLOW AREA |
| 1 | 20 | 7" diameter by 17" long | 2.6sq foot |
| 2 | 40 | 7" diameter by 32" long | 5sq foot |
| 3 | 6 | 4" diameter by 8" long | 0.8sq foot |
| 4 | 12 | 4" diameter by 14" long | 1.5 sq foot |
The filtration housing range offers differences in design operating pressure
with the EcoLine being a tight weight economical filter and the TopLine a tight performance heavy duty housing.
