BF Bag Filtration System

High-Velocity, Easy-to-Maintain Filtration System

The Penguin Series BF Bag Filtration System is designed for rapid, high-velocity solution turnover while minimizing the surface load of contaminants. Featuring a high surface area, single-layered 7” diameter by 16” long bag, the system provides the same filtration power as 12-10” string wound depth cartridges. This makes it a highly efficient and effective solution for various filtration needs.

The system includes a quick disconnect for fast and easy bag replacement, minimizing downtime. Additionally, the bag adaptor head with a split ring ensures the bag is firmly secured in place, maintaining optimal filtration performance.
