Product description
Stainless steel multi cartridge housing for industrial liquid filtration
The stainless steel multi cartridge filter housing is designed for industrial liquid filtration processes where higher flow rates, robust construction and reliable operation are required. This housing accommodates multiple filter cartridges installed in parallel, allowing large volumes of liquid to be filtered efficiently within a compact footprint.
Multi cartridge housings are typically selected when single cartridge housings no longer provide sufficient capacity or when process reliability requires redundancy and stable pressure conditions.
Filtration principle
The housing is designed to hold multiple filter cartridges arranged in a round configuration. Process liquid enters the housing, flows through the cartridges and exits through the outlet connection, while particles are retained by the filter media.
This configuration provides:
-
higher flow capacity compared to single cartridge housings
-
stable differential pressure behaviour
-
uniform flow distribution across cartridges
-
efficient use of filtration surface area
The housing supports consistent performance in continuous and batch filtration processes.
Cartridge compatibility
This stainless steel multi cartridge housing is compatible with the following cartridge end cap styles:
-
Double Open End cartridges
-
Single Open End cartridges, Code 3
-
Single Open End cartridges, Code 7
This allows flexibility in cartridge selection while maintaining secure sealing and reliable operation.
Design and construction
The housing is manufactured from stainless steel and engineered for durability in demanding industrial environments. It features a vertical, free standing design with top opening access for safe and efficient cartridge replacement.
Typical design features include:
-
multi round cartridge configuration
-
top opening closure for easy access
-
integral vent and drain connections
-
smooth internal surfaces to support cleaning and hygiene
-
leg mounted construction for stable installation
The design allows cartridges to be changed without removing pipework, reducing maintenance time and downtime.
Materials of construction
The housing body and head are manufactured from stainless steel suitable for industrial process conditions. Non wetted closure components are selected for mechanical strength and long service life.
Sealing materials can be selected to match process fluid compatibility and operating conditions.
Operating conditions
Typical operating conditions include:
-
pressure ratings suitable for industrial liquid filtration
-
operating temperatures compatible with stainless steel construction
-
suitability for liquid process applications across a wide range of industries
Exact pressure and temperature limits depend on housing size, cartridge configuration and closure design and are defined during the configuration phase.
Compliance and safety
Stainless steel multi cartridge housings are designed and manufactured in accordance with applicable pressure equipment requirements. Each housing is pressure tested and supplied with documentation appropriate to the application.
Where required, housings can be supplied with PED compliance and CE marking.
