Large Geometry Pleated Filters for High Flow

The High Flow Series filters feature a larger geometry to handle high-flows with fewer filter elements. The result is much faster, easier filter changeouts. In addition, the inside to outside flow allows for excellent dirt holding capacity, extending the time between filter changeouts. Filter housings are also available and because of the filter’s high flow and dirt holding capacity, smaller systems are possible, reducing upfront capital costs.

Filter Housings for High Flow Applications

The High Flow Series filter housings are designed to accept and competitive High Flow Series large geometry filter elements. Available in both vertical and horizontal orientations, the High Flow housings can accept from 1 to 7 filter elements. Also available is a single round tipped horizontal design that allows easier removal without the need for a platform and readily drains from back of vessel to eliminate fluid spills.

FLOW CAPACITY

Flow capacity based on light dirt load and low viscosity. Actual flow rate may be lower with vessel sizing based on dirt load, fluid dirt loads, nature of contaminant, viscosity, micron rating and temperature.
