Polypropylene bag housings type “BG-PP”

Putsch® bag housings type “BG-PP” are particularly high quality housings made of chemically inert polypropylene for standard size 1 and size 2 bag filters. These premium housings differ from other common models in many details. Putsch® placed a special focus on durability through precise and robust workmanship.

Description

General information

The bag housings type “BG-PP” consist of a cylinder with cover and support basket and can hold one filter bag. These filter housings are available in two lengths for the corresponding filter bags size 1 or size 2.

The material used is polypropylene which – in contrast to metal – cannot be corroded by salt water or chloride and is therefore durable.

The particularly thick polypropylene plates are shaped into cylinders and welded by hand. Neither cast nor deep-drawn components are used! Al materials are therefore very smooth, not porous and not thin-walled.

Die Anschlüsse für Ein- und Austritt sind der Zylinderwölbung angepasst. In den zylindrischen The connections for intake and outlet are adapted to the cylinder curvature. The cylindrical pressure vessel contains a support basket holder with a special groove for a sealing ring. Details such as these are a matter of course for Putsch® , but for cost reasons they are not a general market standard.

Another main focus at Putsch® is the sealing technology and the seating of the filter bag – a simple, but very effective sealing and pressure system is located underneath the solid cover. A solid ring with large holes presses the bag down firmly and seals it against the filtered liquid. This prevents dirt bypassing into the filtered liquid. This sealing and pressure system is still unique on the market.

This sealing method allows filter bags of different thicknesses and with different sealing systems to be pressed in precisely and used. Operating companies with high requirements should not be without this sealing and pressure system. The best filter bags are useless if corners are cut in other areas, e.g. if the units do not seal tightly.

The filter basket consists of a perforated cylinder, it is dimensionally stable and has no sharp edges. The filter bag receives the required support and cannot burst, catch on the support basket or tear. The support basket rests on a welded-in ring. This plane ring seals perfectly with an O-ring.

The special welded structure in combination with the thick-walled polypropylene, the smooth surfaces and the clever details, such as the adapted transitions at intake and outlet, is designed for decades of operation – even under tough operating conditions. That is why the bag housings type “BG-PP” have been part of the Putsch® filter range for many decades – quality pays off!

Housing closure

The solid cover is flanged and is closed with convenient hand toggles. The stay bolts are stainless steel and protected against corrosion.

Feet/installation/mounting

No separate base frame is required for installation because the housing is designed to stand vertically without tipping over. Integration into the respective pipe system usually provides sufficient fixing for the bag housings.

Of course Putsch® can offer suitable feet on request. Parameters such as position, length, etc. are defined by the customers and implemented and supplied by Putsch® , making installation on site accordingly easy.

On request, welded-on fastening plates with holes can be included in the design and manufacturing process.

A polypropylene base plate can also be welded on if this is required for correct floor installation.

Connections

The bag housings are designed for the intake and outlet with loose-type flanges DN 80.
The valve on the housing cover can be used to vent the cartridge housing when depressurized. A pressure gage for determining the pre-pressure is also mounted here.
