FLOWLINEII BAG FILTER HOUSINGS Economy bag filter housings

he FLOWLINEII model bag filter housing is an “economy” version of the FLOWLINE bag filter housing, costing about 30% less. You can use the FLOWLINEII instead of the FLOWLINE bag filter if you do not require differential pressure taps, mechanical/electro-polishing, tri-clover connections and do not want to upgrade to the HAYFLOW design. FLOWLINEII bag filter housings cost less due to advanced manufacturing techniques.

The body of the FLOWLINEII bag filter is hydro formed from a single piece of material (316SS, 304SS or carbon steel). Hydro forming is used commonly by the automotive industry to form rigid, complex shapes using high pressure to “mold” malleable metals. The result is a lightweight, “one piece” filter vessel – eliminating the circumference welds, reducing manufacturing costs associated with materials and labor while increasing quality. Since this manufacturing process is not applicable to ASME code, FLOWLINEII bag filter housings cannot be ASME code stamped. If you require an ASME code stamp refer to the SIDELINE bag filter housing.

FLOWLINEII bag filter housings area available with 2″ threaded or either 2″ or 3″ 150# flanged connections, rated for pressures as high as 150 PSI at a maximum temperature of 250F.

FLOWLINEII bag filter housings have a swing bolt cover which can be hinged in any one of four positions. The investment cast evacuation cover increases the ullage (empty space) within the filter housing, reducing both product loss and exposure of the liquid to personnel. As an investment cast component the cover ensures reliable sealing with concentric downwards pressure onto the bag hold-down ring. Other standard features of the FLOWLINEII bag filter housing are a 316SS perforated restrainer (support) basket and powder epoxy coated adjustable carbon steel mounting legs.
