Bag Filter Housing

UPVC Bag Filter housing

A uPVC (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) Bag Filter Housing is a robust, corrosion-resistant filtration unit designed to house filter bags for the removal of suspended solids, particulates, and impurities from liquids in various industrial and commercial applications.

Constructed from high-grade uPVC, this housing offers excellent chemical resistance, making it ideal for acidic, alkaline, saline, and corrosive fluids. Its non-metallic structure ensures long service life, minimal maintenance, and cost-effective operation in environments where stainless steel may corrode or overperform in cost.

The housing is typically equipped with a removable top cover (secured with a clamp or bolt mechanism), an internal perforated support basket (usually made of polypropylene or stainless steel), and EPDM/Viton gaskets to ensure a secure, leak-proof seal. It supports standard filter bags (usually Size #1 or #2), and is available with threaded or flanged inlet/outlet connections.

  • Material: uPVC body with optional PP or SS internal basket.

  • Chemical Resistance: Ideal for corrosive media, including seawater and aggressive chemicals.

  • Pressure Rating: Typically up to 6bar.

  • Temperature Limit: Generally up to 45–50°C.

  • Bag Compatibility: Standard size #1 or #2 filter bags (1–200 micron range).

  • Applications: Water treatment, chemical processing, plating, pharmaceuticals, textiles, and food/beverage industries.
