What is a Single Chamber Bag Filter Vessel

What is a Single Chamber Bag Filter Vessel?

A single chamber bag filter vessel is a liquid filtration housing designed to hold one filter bag or one cleanable basket. Process liquid enters the vessel, passes through the filter media and exits the housing after suspended solids have been captured.

Single chamber bag filters are commonly selected where the required flow rate and solids loading can be handled by one filter bag. They are simple to operate, cost-effective to maintain and suitable for many industrial liquid filtration duties.

Depending on the vessel design and application, the housing may be fitted with a disposable filter bag or a reusable stainless steel basket.

Bag Filter Vessel Size Guide

Single chamber filter vessels are available to suit common industry-standard filter bag sizes.

Bag Size Indicative Flow Rate Approximate Dimensions Approximate Flow Area
Size 01 20,000 litres per hour Ø178 mm × 420 mm 0.24 m²
Size 02 40,000 litres per hour Ø178 mm × 810 mm 0.48 m²
Size 03 6,000 litres per hour Ø102 mm × 230 mm 0.08 m²
Size 04 12,000 litres per hour Ø102 mm × 410 mm 0.16 m²
Important: Flow rates are indicative only and are typically based on water at approximately 1 cP viscosity through a nominal-rated filter bag. Actual capacity depends on fluid viscosity, micron rating, solids loading, filter bag media and allowable pressure drop.

How to Select a Single Chamber Bag Filter Vessel

Correct vessel selection depends on the liquid, flow rate, pressure, temperature, solids loading and required filtration result. The filter vessel should be selected together with the correct filter bag or basket media.

Undersizing a vessel can result in excessive pressure drop, short filter bag life and frequent maintenance. Oversizing may add unnecessary cost or occupy more installation space than required.

Key information required for selection:

  • Fluid type and chemical compatibility
  • Required flow rate
  • Fluid viscosity
  • Operating pressure and temperature
  • Required micron rating
  • Solids loading and particle type
  • Connection size and standard
  • Preferred vessel material
  • Available installation space
  • Filter bag or cleanable basket preference

Filter Bags or Cleanable Baskets

Single chamber filter vessels can often be fitted with disposable filter bags or cleanable stainless steel baskets. Disposable filter bags are commonly used where straightforward changeout and a broad selection of micron ratings are required.

Cleanable stainless steel baskets may be suitable where reusable filtration media is preferred, where coarser protection is required, or where the process benefits from a robust perforated or mesh-lined basket.

Typical media options

  • Nominal-rated filter bags
  • High-efficiency filter bags
  • Needled felt filter bags
  • Monofilament mesh filter bags
  • Perforated stainless steel baskets
  • Fine mesh-lined stainless steel baskets

Single Chamber Bag Filter Vessel FAQs

A single chamber bag filter vessel is a liquid filtration housing that holds one filter bag or cleanable basket. It is used to remove suspended solids from compatible liquids in process, water, chemical and general industrial applications.

Common industry-standard sizes include Size 01, Size 02, Size 03 and Size 04. The correct size depends on flow rate, solids loading, vessel design and available installation space.

Many single chamber vessels can be fitted with disposable filter bags or cleanable stainless steel baskets. The preferred option depends on the required filtration rating, solids loading, maintenance preference and process conditions.

Selection should consider fluid type, flow rate, viscosity, operating pressure, temperature, solids loading, required micron rating, connection size, vessel material and available installation space.

Flow capacity depends on bag size, filter media, micron rating, fluid viscosity, solids loading and allowable pressure drop. Published water flow rates should be treated as a guide rather than a guaranteed process flow.
