The 304 Stainless Steel Filter Housing is a precision-engineered filtration vessel designed for single-cartridge applications requiring corrosion resistance, sanitary construction, and reliable performance. With its compact dimensions of 106mm in outer diameter and 600mm in height, this housing provides an ideal solution for point-of-use filtration, pilot plants, and small-scale production systems.
Constructed from high-quality 304 stainless steel, this housing offers excellent corrosion resistance for a wide range of applications, including water treatment, chemical processing, food and beverage production, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. The 106mm diameter accommodates standard 2.5-inch filter cartridges, while the 600mm height provides flexibility for elements up to 20 inches in length depending on configuration.

Q1: What is the difference between SS304 and SS316L for filter housings? Which one should I choose?
A:
SS304 is the standard grade for general water treatment, food processing, and less corrosive environments. It offers good corrosion resistance and is cost-effective.
SS316L contains molybdenum, which provides enhanced resistance to chlorides, acids, and aggressive chemicals. The “L” stands for low carbon, which improves weldability and resistance to intergranular corrosion.
Recommendation: Choose SS316L for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, seawater, and chemical injection applications. Choose SS304 for general industrial water, food & beverage (non-acidic), and light chemical duties.
Q2: How do I maintain and clean the exterior of the stainless steel housing?
A: To maintain the sanitary finish and prevent surface rust (tea staining):
Routine Cleaning: Wipe down with a soft cloth and warm soapy water or a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Passivation: For new housings or after welding, a passivation treatment (using nitric or citric acid) helps restore the protective chromium oxide layer, enhancing long-term corrosion resistance.
Avoid: Do not use steel wool or abrasive pads, as these can embed iron particles into the surface and cause rusting.
Q3: What is the maximum pressure and temperature this housing can withstand?
A: Our standard Single Core Stainless Steel Filter Housing is designed for a maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa (10 bar / 145 psi) . The maximum temperature depends on the seal material used, but the stainless steel structure itself can typically handle up to 300°C (572°F) . However, always check the specific pressure rating for your model, as higher pressure ratings (e.g., 2.0 MPa) can be custom manufactured.
