Product Overview

CMI Multi-Cartridge Filter Housings are designed for high-flow industrial liquid filtration, supporting large quantities of filter cartridges within a single pressure vessel.

With configurations ranging from 10 to 280 cartridges, these housings provide an efficient solution for large-scale filtration systems requiring high throughput and reduced footprint.

Multiple opening mechanisms—including quick-opening clamp, eye-bolt, and davit-arm designs—are available to match different safety levels and maintenance frequencies.

Both vertical and horizontal configurations are offered, making this series suitable for water treatment plants, desalination systems, chemicals, electronics, coatings, and other high-volume industrial processes.

All housings can be engineered and fabricated in accordance with ASME Section VIII, Division 1.
