X100 Series Convertible Filter Housing

X100 series convertible filter housing

The X100 series convertible filter housing from Allied Filter Systems Ltd.® is an economical, polypropylene filter housing which can be used with either filter bags or filter cartridges. The vessel is lightweight and durable, and is perfectly suited for applications such as water filtration and use with other non-dangerous chemicals.

The X100 has a simple to use screw- on lid which seals to the vessel body by means of a gasket without the need for any tools to tighten. The smooth interior surface enables easy and fast manual cleaning or flushing.

As standard, the vessel is fitted with a high open area filtration basket with no restriction to flow to support a filter bag. To convert for use as a cartridge filter, the basket is removed and the cartridge seating plate provided is inserted in the base.

As standard, the X100 is supplied with removable adjustable legs. The moulded connections are 2” NPT, but in addition the vessel is provided with screw-in 2” ANSI flanges to provide an alternative connection option.

Filter bags

A comprehensive range of X100 filter bags is available and can be manufactured from our full selection of filter media (1 to 1500 microns) providing accurate and economical filtration. The polypropylene X100 moulded collar forms an excellent seal against the filter housing body eliminating possibility of bypass. A hold down device is also present within the vessel to provide added security of filter bag seating. The X100 moulded collar features an integrated handle to assist filter bag removal. Measuring 6” diameter x 20” long, the filter bag has the equivalent filtration area of a size 1 filter bag.

Filter Cartridges

X100 filter cartridges are manufactured from 100% melt blown polypropylene, have a high dirt holding capacity and excellent flow characteristics.
They are nominally rated from 5 – 100 micron. The bottom end cap is fitted as standard with EPDM gaskets with other materials available on request. The top end cap features a moulded handle to assist removal.
