Product description

Series Filter Systems

Series Filter Systems are designed to remove suspended solids from liquids in multiple stages. Housings are piped in sequence, allowing particles of a selected size range to be captured at each stage as liquid flows through the system. Therefore, liquids may be filtered more efficiently by collecting larger particles upstream, preventing them from prematurely blinding media in subsequent stages.

Variations of both particle size and solids concentration can be addressed with precision, accuracy, and control, through the selection of filter media. Any combination of Strainers, Mesh or Micron-Lined Baskets, Liquid Filter Bags, or Cartridges may be used in Series to maximize performance and reduce costs associated with disposable media. Systems are available in Two, Three, or Four Stages. All systems maintain the flow rate capacity of a single vessel.

Benefits of Series Filtration:

• Increased Solids Loading – The first stage pre-filters larger particles; each successive stage removes smaller particulate for finer filtration or liquid polishing.
• Reduced Cost – Users may select more economical media to pre-filter larger particles, reserving high-performance products for the subsequent stages to promote cost effectiveness.
• Improved Quality Control Filters of the same micron rating may be used in Series to improve capture rates and ensure filtrate quality through redundancy.
