A bag filter housing holds one or more filter bags in a pressure vessel and removes solids from process water, wastewater and other liquids. ERE manufactures the Sampson line in Canada: uPVC housings for corrosive liquids (90 or 180 GPM, 45°C maximum), 304/316 stainless steel high-pressure housings (90 or 180 GPM) and multi-bag housings that hold 3, 4 or 6 #2 bags for 540 to 1,080 GPM. For other configurations, ERE also carries Shelco BFS Series multi-bag housings (2 to 6 bags) and A.P. Buck BF Series housings for #1 to #4 bags in stainless or carbon steel.
Sampson uPVC and multi-bag housings accept filter bags of every micron rating and material. Send us your flow rate, fluid and temperature, and we will size the housing.
Size the housing to your flow. A single bag handles moderate flows: Sampson single-bag housings are rated 90 GPM with a #1 bag and 180 GPM with a #2 bag. Above that, a multi-bag housing spreads the flow over several bags, which also lengthens the time between change-outs. Our guide compares single-bag, multi-bag and duplex housings.
uPVC housings resist corrosion, are light and easy to install, and suit corrosive liquids at moderate temperatures (Sampson uPVC: 45°C maximum). Stainless steel handles higher temperatures and pressures; 316 resists chlorides better than 304, and sanitary finishes are available for food and pharmaceutical use. Check chemical compatibility before you choose; see our uPVC vs stainless steel guide.
Industrial filter bags come in four standard sizes: #1 (7" x 17"), #2 (7" x 32"), #3 (4" x 8") and #4 (4" x 15"). Sampson single-bag housings take #1 or #2 bags and Sampson multi-bag housings take #2 bags; A.P. Buck BF Series housings cover all four sizes. Our filter bag size guide covers rings and compatibility.
Watch the pressure drop across the housing. Sampson housings have 1/4" gauge ports on the cover, and pressure gauges are listed as accessories for the high-pressure model; change the bag when the differential pressure reaches the limit set by the bag manufacturer or your procedure.
