Stainless Steel 304/316 Multi-Cartridge Filter Housing For
Pharmaceutical Industry
Cartridge filter system offers wide range of flow capacities &
contaminant holding capacities. Cartridge filter housing diameters
can accommodate around 1 to 500 cartridges. Cartridge filters are
normally used as polishing filter in almost all process industries.
Cartridge filter is constructed of filter housing, filter
cartridges, tube sheet, positive sealing arrangement for cartridge
depending upon type of cartridge & choice of end connections.
Positive sealing arrangement for cartridge filter assures no
particle migration or fiber migration, even after high differential
pressures.
Operation
Contaminated fluid enters the housing and is distributed evenly
around the filter cartridges. Filtration takes place from outside
to inside. Solids are collected on the outside of filter cartridges
& clear filtrate is collected at outlet.

CHUNKE Housing Cartridge Filter Installation
Figure 1 below shows a common filter housing installation setup.
This setup will facilitate filter installation and
the sanitization and sterilization of filters during use.
CHUNKE Cartridge Filters should, at minimum, be installed in a
housing system as shown in Figure 1 with the valves and
pressure gauges in place for the “Product In” line. If the
cartridge is being installed in a system that will be heat
sanitized or steam sterilized, then the lines, valves, pressure
gauges and temperature gauges for “Hot Water In” and/or “Steam In”
should also be in place. If the filter is to be integrity tested,
then the mass flow meter portion of the system in Figure 1
should also be installed.
Procedures for integrity testing filters as well as procedures for
hot water sanitization, steam sterilization and
chemical sanitization and to get more info please contact with
us.
Figure 1. Cartridge filter housing installation diagram
1. Shut off flow by first closing valve V1, and making sure that
valves V2, V3 , V4 and V5 are also closed. Then close
all other valves open during operation. (Caution: Do not open
the housing until pressure gauges G4 and G5 both show “0”
pressure.)
2. .Open Vent (Valve 7) and Drain (Valve 6) to empty housing of
liquid. Open downstream drain valve V10, if desired.
3. Remove the housing bowl and remove the old filter.
4. Open the bag containing the new filter at the end with o-rings
and wet the o-rings with water or the fluid beingvfiltered. DO NOT
TOUCH THE FILTER WITH BARE HANDS OR FINGERS.
5. .With the new filter still in the bag, push the o-ring end into
the filter housing head using a twisting motion to assure a
complete seal. If the filter has a 2-226 or 2-223-Tab o-ring
configuration, make sure that the locking tabs engagev with the tab
holders in the housing head. (To prevent inadvertent contamination
of filter, do not directly touch filters with your hands.)
6. Remove the bag and replace the filter housing bowl.
7. Close the Vent (V7) and Drain (V6 and/or V10).
