Vessel Construction:
Our housing is designed for operating up to 100 PSI at 250 degrees Fahrenheit. The housing design provides a large sump area at the bottom for dirt and scale accumulation with a convenient 2 inch clean-out port. This design utilizes the filter more efficiently and prolongs the element life.

Permanently piped housings are opened with simple tools without disturbing the piping.  Swing bolts with eye-nuts allow easy opening and closing of the swing-lid. No need to remove any hardware.  As a standard finish, all vessels are blast cleaned and painted inside and out with a 2-part epoxy. Stainless steel vessels are supplied with a satin finish.
