Filter Tech 8-30 Uni-Style Filter Housing

The Filter Technology Inc. Model 8-30 industrial filter housing is a high-capacity, single-bag filtration vessel designed for industrial liquid filtration at moderate to high flow rates. It accommodates one Size #2 filter bag and is commonly used in chemical processing, coatings, water treatment, and general industrial filtration applications where strength, reliability, and serviceability are critical.

The Model 8-30 is available in carbon steel, 304 stainless steel, and 316 stainless steel, allowing material selection based on process fluid compatibility, corrosion resistance, and operating environment—without changing the housing footprint or performance characteristics.
