8 Bar Water Filter Housing for Data Center Cooling Applications

Our multi-bag and single-bag filter housings are engineered for operating pressures up to 150 psi, which equals 10 bar, easily accommodating 8 bar operating requirements. High-flow cartridge housings offer alternative differential pressure ratings up to 60 psi depending on orientation and cartridge configuration, ensuring dependable pressure vessel integrity across critical chilled loops.

Housings are manufactured primarily in 304L and 316/316L stainless steel, offering superior corrosion resistance and longevity in hydronic environments. For select high-flow cartridge applications, non-metallic fiberglass construction options are also available. Wetted internal components like perforated support baskets are constructed from durable stainless steel to prevent bypass under high fluid velocities.

To support varied operating chemistries and thermal demands, vessels are available with multiple elastomer sealing choices. Options include Buna-N, EPR/EPDM, Silicone, and Viton/FKM gaskets. These materials maintain an airtight, leak-free seal across process temperatures reaching up to 300°F (149°C) depending on configuration and closure style.

Single-bag housings handle flow capacities up to 176 GPM and offer a compact footprint ideal for localized loops. Multi-bag housings accommodate 2 to 24 filter bags, distributing flow across multiple elements to achieve capacities up to 4,200 GPM while significantly reducing pressure drop and extending operational runtimes between cleanouts.

Vessels feature several cover closure styles tailored for rapid service and safety. Depending on the specific housing model and operating pressure requirements, configurations include quick-opening closures, clamp designs, swing-bolt assemblies, band clamps, and davit-assisted mechanical lifts that facilitate routine maintenance without requiring overhead cranes.

Yes, housings are fabricated under ISO 9001-certified quality management programs. In addition, qualified vessels can be specified with ASME Section VIII, Division 1 code compliance or ASME U-stamp certification, ensuring material traceability, qualified welding procedures, and documented pressure testing to meet rigorous mission-critical facility standards.
