Standard Filter Bags
Allied Filter Systems Ltd manufactures high quality liquid filter bags to fit standard size filter vessels, as well as custom designed products where requested. The constituent materials have been chosen for their purity, consistent high quality and repeatable performance. Filter bags are available in traditional stitched form or with a fully welded construction, and are fitted with a comprehensive choice of rings.
- 7” or 4” galvanised Steel rings (or stainless steel) which fit universally into all filter housings. Polypropylene rings and stainless steel bands are also available.
- Custom designed moulded Welseal (polypropylene or polyester) welded rings, giving more positive sealing, needle hole elimination and lifting handles for faster and easier bag installation and replacement. A Welseal ring product is fully combustible.
- Custom designed positive sealing Santaseal moulded ring, for applications where high temperature or chemical resistance properties are required.

Sewn Needlefelt Filter Bags
Needlefelts are a versatile and cost effective media providing a high solid holding capacity for both non-deformable and deformable, gelatinous particles. By means of a depth filtration mechanism, particles penetrate and are captured throughout the depth of the filter media.

Fully Welded Filter Bags
All seams are welded rather than sewn, and combined with our positive sealing moulded Welseal (polypropylene or polyester) welded ring, no process liquid can bypass through needleholes caused by the sewing process or around a traditional metal ring. The Welseal ring forms a 360o hermetic seal between the filter bag and housing, ensuring that fully welded filter bags perform to a higher efficiency than a sewn equivalent.
