Parker FB11-2 Bag Filter Housing 2 Inch Carbon Steel

Product Description

The PARKER FB11-2 is a carbon steel bag filter housing designed for industrial and commercial liquid filtration applications. It accepts a size 1 filter bag and features 2-inch female NPT (FNPT) end connections for straightforward in-line installation. With a maximum flow rating of 80 GPM, this housing is built to handle moderate to high-volume process water, cooling water, and general-purpose fluid filtration duties. At 90 pounds, the unit is constructed for durability in demanding service environments. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors are the typical tradespeople who install and service this type of equipment.

This housing suits residential, commercial, and light industrial systems where a size 1 bag filter element is specified. It installs in-line on process piping, cooling loops, or water treatment systems that require particulate removal upstream of sensitive equipment such as pumps, heat exchangers, or valves. The 2-inch FNPT connections align with common schedule pipe and fittings, making integration into existing piping straightforward.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed pipefitter or plumber in accordance with applicable IPC or local mechanical codes. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before installing or servicing the housing. Use appropriate pipe sealant or thread tape on FNPT connections and verify all joints are leak-free before returning the system to service. Support the housing independently to avoid placing stress on connected piping, given the unit weight.
