TOPLINE BAG FILTER HOUSINGS
The TOPLINE model bag filter housing is the highest performance design we offer. Especially if your application requires <=25 micron nominal retention or an absolute (99%) efficient rated retention, the model TOPLINE bag filter is the best choice.
CUTAWAY OF EATON TOPLINE BAG FILTER HOUSINGThe primary difference between the TOPLINE bag filter housing and the other models we offer is the "over-the-top" inlet configuration. This feature allows for the chamber cover to directly compress the filter bag seal, thereby forming the best seal possible. When combined with the Sentinel style filter bag sealing ring design, the TOPLINE will provide "bypass-free" performance.
EATON TOPLINE COVER SEALAnother advantage of locating the bag sealing at the top of the bag filter is minimization of ullage - the empty space above the filter bag, resulting in less unfiltered liquid within the housing and easy to grab filter bag access.
The TOPLINE bag filter housing has a special two-weld design, resulting in an overall smoother finish internally for better draining and cleaning. TOPLINE housings have a smooth, bead-blasted finish and are available with an optional internal and external electro-polish finish for food, beverage and pharmaceutical applications that require "sanitary construction".
All TOPLINE bag filters include an ASME UM stamp; optional features include: differential pressure taps, CRN registration, electro-polish finish, tri-clamp connections and steam jacketing.
Please view the TOPLINE pricing page for discounted pricing for complete bag filter housings. If you require spare parts for an existing TOPLINE bag filter, please refer to the TOPLINE parts page for discounted pricing.

SIDELINE BAG FILTER HOUSINGS
The SIDELINE model bag filter housing is the industry standard bag filter vessel design when a Code UM or Code U stamp is required. The SIDELINE filter housing is applicable for all nominal micron retentions; if you require a specified efficiency (99% efficient) filter media, you should use the TOPLINE design.
Each SIDELINE bag filter housing has a swing bolt cover which can be hinged in any one of four positions. The cover itself is what is referred to as an "evacuation cover" - a concave design that reduces the ullage (empty space) within the filter housing. The advantage is twofold; there's less "wasted fluid" during a bag change and the fluid level ends-up lower in the housing to reduce spillage once the cover is opened.
The cover is an investment cast component, ensuring precise, reliable sealing with concentric downwards pressure onto the bag hold-down ring. Each SIDELINE bag filter vessel is ASME UM Code stamped (U stamp is optional).
The restrainer (support) basket is made of 316SS and has 9/64" perforations. SIDELINE bag filters also come with adjustable epoxy powder coated steel mounting legs.
Optional features for SIDELINE bag filters include Tri-Clover connections, differential pressure taps, CRN registration, mechanical/electro-polished internal/external, steam jacketing, ASME U code stamp, a side outlet and HAYFLOW basket upgrade. |

FLOWLINE BAG FILTER HOUSINGS
The FLOWLINE model bag filter housing is an "economy" version of the SIDELINE bag filter housing and should be considered when ASME code stamping is not required. If you require an ASME code stamp, CRN or steam jacketing, the SIDELINE or TOPLINE models should be chosen.
The FLOWLINE filter housing is applicable for all nominal micron retentions, if you require a specified efficiency (99% efficient) filter media, you should use the TOPLINE design.
Each FLOWLINE bag filter housing has a swing bolt cover which can be hinged in any one of four positions.

FLOWLINEII BAG FILTER HOUSINGS
The FLOWLINEII model bag filter housing is an "economy" version of the FLOWLINE bag filter housing. You can use the FLOWLINEII instead of the FLOWLINE bag filter if you do not require differential pressure taps, mechanical/electro-polishing, tri-clover connections and do not want to upgrade to the HAYFLOW design. FLOWLINEII bag filter housings cost less due to advanced manufacturing techniques.
The body of the FLOWLINEII bag filter is hydroformed from a single piece of material (316SS, 304SS or carbon steel). Hydroforming is used commonly by the automotive industry to form rigid, complex shapes using high pressure to "mold" malleable metals. The result is a lightweight, "one piece" filter vessel - eliminating a circumference weld, reducing manufacturing costs associated with materials and labor while increasing quality.
FLOWLINEII bag filter housings have a swing bolt cover which can be hinged in any one of four positions. The cover itself is what is referred to as an "evacuation cover" - a concave design that reduces the ullage (empty space) within the filter housing.

DUOLINE BAG FILTER HOUSINGS
DUOLINE bag filter housings consist of two #2 size filter bag chambers for a maximum flow rate of approximately 360 GPM for nominal filtration of water-like fluids. When one #2 size bag filter is not enough for your flow rate and the HAYFLOW upgrade option† isn't viable, consider the DUOLINE.
†increases maximum flow rate of a #2 size housing from approximately 180 GPM to 300 GPM for nominal retention of water-like fluids
NOTE: you can apply the HAYFLOW upgrade option to the DUOLINE bag filter vessels to increase their flow capacity further.
The DUOLINE bag filters are based upon the TOPLINE, SIDELINE and FLOWLINE bag filter vessels. The TOPLINE style is recommended for absolute rated retention filter bag applications; the SIDELINE version is best for nominal (most common) filter bag retentions and the FLOWLINE version does not have an ASME code stamp option, it's the "economy version. You can review each of their respective webpages for a more detailed description of which version is best for your application.
The MODULINE, PROLINE and MAXILINE multiple chamber bag filter vessels have from 3 to 24 filter bag chambers for higher flow rate applications.

MODULINE BAG FILTER HOUSINGS
MODULINE bag filter system should be considered for high flow rate applications where the flow rate cannot be interrupted for filter bag replacement as an alternative to a duplexed DUOLINE or MAXILINE multiple chamber bag filters.
The MODULINE bag filter system offer a flexible approach for high flow rate filtration applications. Instead of a single housing having multiple filter bag chambers, the MODULINE system consists of 2 to 8 #2 size bag filter housings installed on a common inlet and outlet manifold.
A key advantage of this approach is that you can change filter bags without interrupting the process flow rate. This is something that you cannot do with multiple bag filter housings unless you duplex them together.
The MODULINE bag filter system is more expensive then multiple chamber PROLINE and MAXILINE bag filters, however it is less expensive then duplexing multiple bag filter housings.
If your filtration requirement falls within 1 to 100 microns (nominal), also consider the HAYFLOW upgrade option, as it may reduce the number of bag filter stations required.
The MODULINE bag filters systems are based upon the TOPLINE, SIDELINE, FLOWLINE and FLOWLINEII bag filter vessel designs.

MAXILINE BAG FILTER HOUSINGS
MAXILINE bag filters are multiple chamber filter bag housings. There are three versions, the HD-T, the HE and the SE-T.
MAXILINE HD-T has a cost effective hand wheel operated lifting davit to raise the cover and move it to the side for filter bag access. MAXILINE HD-T is your only option for (12) or more filter bag chambers.
The MAXILINE HE design has a swing bolt closure and a spring assisted hinge, making it very easy for personnel to open the housing and safely remove to install filter bags. The MAXILINE-HE-S is the standard design; the MAXILINE-HE-T has a special tangential outlet. This is an outlet installed as close to the floor as possible thereby keeping the filter housing height to an absolute minimum. This feature enables personnel to remove filter bags while standing on the ground (no requirement for external scaffolding) because the filter bag chamber height is only 36" to 43" above the floor.
The MAXILINE SE-T is variation of MAXILINE-HE, having a counter-weighted cover with QIC-LOCK closure. The QIC-LOCK closure is designed to enable quick filter bag access and ensuring safety with integral vessel venting as part of the opening process. If a quick filter bag change-out is desirable, the MAXILINE-SE-T is the quickest in the world.

FLOWASH PORTABLE BAG FILTER HOUSINGS
FLOWASH portable filter carts provide a convenient option for emptying and transferring industrial fluids such as machine tool coolant, waste water, paints and coatings and wastewater from sumps, pits and reservoirs. FLOWASH portable filter carts quickly empty or fill drums, barrels and totes.
FLOWASH portable filter carts enable personnel to easily move the bag filter pump station to wherever it is required, instead of installing multiple stations by each process.
TWO VERSIONS: BASIC AND INDUSTRIAL
FLOWASH basic filter carts utilize an electrically operated self-priming end suction centrifugal pump designed to pump and filter water-like fluids up to 30 GPM at 75 PSI and 180°F.
FLOWASH industrial filter carts utilize an air-operated diaphragm pump designed to pump and filter water-like fluids up to 45 GPM at 125 PSI and 150°F. FLOWASH industrial filter carts also include a strainer for pre-filtration.
The design of the FLOWASH portable filter carts are based upon the FLOWLINEII bag filter design. The pump draws the fluid from its source and pumps it through the FLOWLINEII bag filter for filtration to as low as 1 micron nominal retention prior to discharge. A complete listing of filter bags are listed online at Eaton Filter Bags.com.
You can decrease the frequency of filter bag changes with the HAYFLOW upgrade option if your filtration requirement falls within 1 to 100 microns (nominal).

BAG FILTER ACCESSORIES
Perhaps one of the most overlooked aspect of bag filter housings are the accessories available for improving performance.
Displacement Balloons reduce volume of carry-out loss during filter bag changes. A #2 size filter bag has a volume of approximately 5 gallons, in addition to the added weight when changing the filter bag, that fluid is often discarded with the filter bag. The displacement balloon significantly reduces this wasted volume and also results in a much lighter, easier filter bag replacement.
Bag Positioners are a REQUIREMENT for absolute retention filter bags such as ACCUGAF and PROGAF filter bags, helping to keep the filter bag positioned correctly within its' restrainer (support) basket.
Magnetic Inserts are powerful rare earth magnetic assemblies suspended within the filter bag, attracting ferrous particles, both alleviating filter bag loading in addition to increasing filtration efficiency due to magnetic attraction.
