Allied Filter Systems is able to offer multi bag vessels for applications requiring high flow rates or a large filtration surface area. The standard range of multi bag vessels contains from 4 to 16 filter bags, with larger vessels available on request.
Flow is split equally through each filter bag ensuring an even distribution of solid loading.
Filter Bags are individually held in position by three point locking bayonets, which compress the filter bag ring and produce a seal with the filter vessel.
The vessel lid has a counterbalanced spring assisted lifting mechanism ensuring that opening and closing the filter is safe and easy for operators.
The counterbalance is precise and gives the lid a practically weightless feel. As an additional safety feature, a simple locking system is fitted on the hinge as standard and can be engaged when the lid is in the fully open position.
Multi bag vessels are provided with a choice of two closure types, either a bolted lid or with a quick closure clamp.
Quick closure system
The quick closure system was developed for multi bag vessels to eliminate the need for swing bolts, decreasing the time required for filter bag changeout.
The system consists of a heavy duty precision engineered clamp, an opening wheel with counter screw, and a safety lock attached to a ball valve fitted to the vent of the housing.
