The FLOWLINE model bag filter housing is an "economy" version of the SIDELINE bag filter housing and should be considered when ASME code stamping is not required.  If you require an ASME code stamp, CRN or steam jacketing, the SIDELINE or TOPLINE models should be chosen.

 

The FLOWLINE filter housing is applicable for all nominal micron retentions, if you require a specified efficiency (99% efficient) filter media, you should use the TOPLINE design.

 

Each FLOWLINE bag filter housing has a swing bolt cover which can be hinged in any one of four positions.  The cover itself is what is referred to as an "evacuation cover" - a concave design that reduces the ullage (empty space) within the filter housing.  The advantage is twofold; there's less "wasted fluid" during a bag change and the fluid level ends up lower in the housing to reduce spillage once the cover is opened.

 

The cover is an investment cast component, ensuring precise, reliable sealing with concentric downwards pressure onto the bag hold-down ring.

 

The restrainer (support) basket is made of 316SS and has 9/64" perforations.  FLOWLINE bag filters also come with adjustable epoxy powder coated steel mounting legs.

 

Optional features for FLOWLINE bag filters include Tri-Clover connections, differential pressure taps, mechanical/electro-polished internal/external and HAYFLOW basket upgrade.
