High-Performance Filtration with Harmsco HUR 170 HP Hurricane Filter Housing
The Harmsco HUR 170 HP Hurricane filter housing delivers superior filtration performance for commercial and industrial water treatment systems. Its patented design combines a cyclone separator with cartridge filtration to improve dirt-holding capacity and extend filter life.
Moreover, the up-flow cyclone technology separates heavier solids before they reach the filter media. As a result, it reduces cartridge loading, lowers maintenance frequency, and improves overall system efficiency.
In addition, the tangential inlet design creates a rotational flow pattern that enhances filtration performance. This action helps distribute solids evenly across the cartridge, increasing service life and maintaining consistent flow rates.
The HUR 170 HP Hurricane filter housing features electropolished 304 stainless steel construction for durability and corrosion resistance. It also includes a fail-safe lid closure rated up to 150 PSI, ensuring safe operation in demanding environments.
Furthermore, the standard CPVC standpipe supports reliable performance, with an optional stainless steel upgrade available for high-temperature applications. NSF/ANSI 61 certification ensures safe use in potable water systems.
This filtration system supports a wide range of applications, including cooling towers, reverse osmosis pre-filtration, industrial wastewater treatment, and process water systems. It is also suitable for drinking water, well water, and whole-house filtration.
Available from Water Treatment Supply, the Harmsco HUR 170 HP Hurricane filter housing provides a compact, efficient, and low-maintenance solution for high-capacity filtration needs.
