The Harmsco HUR-40-HP-SS Hurricane filter housing delivers efficient filtration for commercial and industrial water treatment systems. Designed with up-flow cyclone technology, this single-cartridge housing uses tangential flow to help separate heavier particles before the water passes through the filter cartridge.
With a maximum flow rate of 50 GPM (35 GPM recommended), the HUR-40-HP-SS supports effective solids removal in demanding filtration applications. Its electropolished 304 stainless steel construction provides durability and corrosion resistance for long-term operation.
The HUR-40-HP-SS filter housing includes a heavy-duty CPVC standpipe as standard. An optional stainless steel standpipe supports higher-temperature applications. The housing operates at pressures up to 150 PSI and temperatures up to 140°F (60°C) with the standard configuration. With the optional stainless steel standpipe, it can support temperatures up to 250°F (121°C).
Its compact footprint, 2″ NPT inlet and outlet connections, and 1″ NPT drain simplify installation and maintenance. The housing accommodates one Harmsco HC/40 Series Hurricane cartridge. Typical applications include RO pretreatment, process water filtration, commercial water treatment, and municipal water systems. In addition, its NSF/ANSI Standard 61 listing supports use in applicable drinking water systems.

Advanced Up-Flow Filtration with the Harmsco HUR-40-HP-SS
The Harmsco HUR-40-HP-SS filter housing provides reliable filtration for commercial and industrial water treatment systems. Its up-flow cyclone design combines particle separation with cartridge filtration. As a result, the system helps remove suspended solids before the water moves downstream.
Up-Flow Cyclone Filtration
Water enters the Harmsco HUR-40-HP-SS filter housing through a side inlet. Then, the water begins to spin inside the stainless steel housing. This movement helps separate heavier particles before the water reaches the filter cartridge.
Next, the water flows upward through the Harmsco HC/40 Series Hurricane cartridge. The cartridge captures smaller particles from the water. Therefore, this design supports effective filtration and helps manage dirt buildup.
50 GPM Stainless Steel Filter Housing
The Harmsco HUR-40-HP-SS filter housing handles flow rates up to 50 GPM. However, the recommended continuous flow rate is 35 GPM. In addition, the housing has 2-inch NPT inlet and outlet connections for easy system installation.
The housing uses 304 stainless steel for strength and corrosion resistance. Moreover, it operates at pressures up to 150 PSI. With the standard CPVC standpipe, it supports temperatures up to 140°F (60°C).
Easy Maintenance and Multiple Applications
The HUR-40-HP-SS includes a fail-safe closure with brass wing nuts. Therefore, operators can access the cartridge during routine maintenance. In addition, a 1-inch NPT drain helps with system draining and service.
The Harmsco HUR-40-HP-SS filter housing works well for RO pretreatment, commercial water filtration, industrial process water, and municipal water systems. Overall, its compact design, stainless steel housing, and up-flow filtration make it a practical choice for demanding water treatment systems.
Specifications and Applications of the Harmsco HUR-40-HP Filter Housing
The HUR-40-HP industrial filter housing combines a 304 stainless steel vessel with a patented cyclonic up-flow configuration designed for high-efficiency filtration and rapid servicing. Its single-cartridge design and 50 GPM maximum flow capacity make it suitable for a wide variety of commercial and industrial liquid filtration processes.
Use Cases & Industry Applications
- Commercial & Residential Drinking Water: NSF/ANSI Standard 61 listed for safe installation in municipal distribution, well water treatment, and whole-house filtration setups.
- Reverse Osmosis Pre-Filtration: Removes sand, silt, and rust prior to RO units to extend membrane life and reduce cleaning frequency.
- Cooling Tower Filtration: Can be incorporated into cooling tower side-stream loops to continuously trap airborne debris and suspended scale.
- Industrial Wastewater Treatment: Works reliably in industrial effluent and rinse water treatment systems requiring multi-stage particulate removal.
- Process Water & Utility Filtration: Suitable for process water conditioning across manufacturing plants, plating facilities, and boiler feed lines.
- Groundwater Remediation & LT2 Compliance: Ideal for groundwater remediation, wellhead filtration, and Surface Water Treatment Rule (SWTR) LT2 compliance applications.
Key Features & Benefits
- Patented Cyclonic Up-Flow Technology: Tangential entry spins out heavy solids before they reach the filter media, while up-flow action prevents air entrapment.
- 304 Stainless Steel Construction: Features an electropolished finish as standard to deliver superior corrosion resistance and easy surface sanitization.
- 50 GPM Flow Capacity: Rated for maximum flow rates up to 50 GPM (35 GPM recommended continuous) with minimal line pressure drop.
- Single Cartridge Design: Uses one high-capacity HC/40 series Hurricane cartridge for quick element removal and lowered routine labor costs.
- 150 PSI Pressure Rating: Hydrostatically factory-tested to safely handle continuous line operating pressures up to 150 PSI (10 bar).
- Fail-Safe Lid Closure: Uses heavy-duty brass wing nuts for safe, tool-free lid removal and secure pressure sealing.

FAQs
- How does the cyclonic technology work in the Harmsco HUR-40-HP-SS filter housing?
Fluid enters tangentially into the housing, creating a rotational vortex. Centrifugal force pushes heavy particles outward to settle in the bottom drain chamber, while cleaner fluid moves upward through the pleated filter cartridge. - What replacement cartridge is required for this HUR-40-HP-SS Hurricane filter housing?
This housing holds one (1) Harmsco HC/40 series Hurricane filter cartridge, available in a wide variety of micron ratings (from 0.2 micron up to 100 micron) and media types including carbon block. - What is the difference between recommended continuous flow and maximum flow rate?
The housing supports a peak maximum flow of 50 GPM. However, a continuous flow rate of 35 GPM is recommended to maximize dirt-holding capacity and extend cartridge service life. - Is this housing suitable for high-temperature fluid filtration?
Yes. With the standard CPVC standpipe, it is rated up to 140°F (60°C). By installing an optional stainless steel standpipe and high-temperature cartridges, the rating increases up to 250°F (121°C). - Does the HUR-40-HP stainless steel filter housing require tools to open for servicing?
No. The housing uses a fail-safe top closure with ergonomic brass wing nuts, allowing quick, tool-free cartridge replacement.
