Sanitary Metal Filter Housings with Cartridge for Food and Beverage Steam Lines

Replacement Cartridges

Remove contaminants, moisture, and other particles from steam that will touch food and for final filtering in pharmaceutical, biotech, and electronics applications. The cartridge in these housings filters out 98% of particles as small as 1 micron and 100% of particles as small as 2 microns. That’s why they meet 3-A’s accepted practice for creating culinary-grade steam, which is often used in steam-in-place (SIP) cycles to sanitize equipment, and for applications such as blanching. They’re FDA compliant for direct contact with food, and also meet pharmaceutical equipment design standards.

All are made of 316 stainless steel, so frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners and sanitizers won’t corrode them, and they withstand steam. These housings are designed to sanitary standards; they’re 3-A certified 10-04 and meet ASME BPE. They have rounded edges and highly polished interior and exterior surfaces, minimizing the spots where bacteria could grow. For the same reason, they don’t have horizontal ledges—liquid completely drains off.

They connect to your line with two quick-clamp fittings that are easy to take apart for cleaning and line reconfiguration. Each fitting is tightly sealed with an EPDM gasket, which has excellent resistance to steam.

Cartridges can be cleaned and reused, but after six cleanings you should replace them to maintain high performance.

Corrosion-Resistant Metal Filter Housings with Cartridge for Food and Beverage Steam Lines


		Replacement Cartridges

Remove contaminants from culinary steam—steam that sanitizes food and beverage processing equipment—with these corrosion-resistant filter housings. They’re often used as pre-filters to trap large particles, protecting filters that then capture smaller particles. Made of stainless steel, they won’t corrode from frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners. The cartridge can be cleaned for repeated use, but should be replaced after six uses. These housings comply with FDA design standards for pharmaceutical equipment and are FDA compliant for direct contact with food.
