Bag filter housings
A common starting route for solids holding and economical media replacement.

Coatings & Inks Filtration Solutions
The correct route depends on viscosity at process temperature, contaminant behavior and whether valuable product or unwanted solids should be retained.
Process duties
Define what the filtration step must accomplish.
- Remove gels, agglomerates or foreign solids before filling
- Protect spray, coating or transfer equipment
- Manage higher viscosity without relying on water-based flow assumptions
- Reduce colour-change and cleaning burden through suitable geometry
Equipment routes
Compare mechanisms before choosing a model.
The routes below are preliminary. Hydraulic sizing, material compatibility and the required operating mode remain part of engineering review.
Cartridge filter housings
A polishing route when solids are lower and finer retention is required.
Review equipment route →Scraper self-cleaning filter
A route to evaluate for viscous duty and soft contaminants, subject to testing.
Review equipment route →Mobile filter cart
For transfer or batch duties across multiple vessels or filling points.

What this page does not prove
- Viscosity must be stated at the actual operating temperature.
- Soft or deformable contaminants may behave differently from rigid particles.
- Product loss, cleaning solvent and colour-change targets affect the final layout.
