The FRP Multi-Cartridge Filter Housing by AALFilter is specifically engineered for large-flow, corrosive fluid filtration in seawater desalination and other water treatment applications. Constructed from Fibre Reinforced Plastic (FRP), this housing offers excellent chemical resistance, high strength, and long-term durability—especially in environments where stainless steel housings are not suitable due to salt corrosion.
Designed to accommodate 5 to 22 cartridges of OD 2.5” depth filters, the system is compatible with a variety of filter lengths (20", 30", 40") and cartridge end types including DOE and SOE (222/226). The swing bolt hinged closure ensures easy cartridge change-out and maintenance, while the vertical design and side-in/side-out configuration allow for space-efficient installation and smooth flow dynamics.
This housing is an ideal choice for RO pretreatment in desalination plants, as well as power generation, food & beverage, industrial water treatment, and other demanding filtration applications.
