High Capacity Filter Bags

Newly installed filter bag housings or existing systems can utilise High Capacity filter bags, which increase the filtration surface area by 70% compared with a similar sized standard bag.

The high capacity bag is situated within a stainless steel filter basket with inner support core. Baskets can be supplied to retrofit existing standard size filter bag housings.

Liquid flow occurs through both the outer surface and the central core of the filter bag and basket, enabling higher flow rates to be achieved compared to similar sized standard filter bags. The increased surface area also leads to a higher dirt holding capacity being achieved, meaning longer service life of the filter bag.

By utilising a high capacity filter bag in a new filter installation, a smaller, lower cost filter housing can achieve the desired flow rate and dirt holding capacity. If retrofitting an existing filter housing with a high capacity basket, its performance capability can be increased at minimal cost.

A high capacity bag also reduces the volume of retained liquid in the filter bag by upto 25% compared to a standard bag system, lowering the filter bag removal weight and decreasing product wastage.
