Product Description

3-Piece 10" Filter Housing with 1/2" F Connection, Klarwod

Reliable Water Pre-Filtration – Superior Sealing and Trouble-Free Servicing for Car Wash Facilities

The Klarwod professional 3-piece 10" in-line filter housing with 1/2" female threaded connections is engineered for high-efficiency mechanical sediment removal across industrial plumbing circuits and commercial self-service car wash plant rooms. Its advanced 3-piece structure (head, locking ring, and transparent sump) delivers true axial compression against the sealing O-ring without rotational friction, completely preventing gasket displacement, leaks, or sticking. The crystal-clear sump enables continuous 360-degree visual monitoring of cartridge fouling without taking the system offline, while the integrated top air relief valve allows instant depressurization and air bleeding during cartridge replacement. It provides a dependable protective barrier for high-pressure plunger pumps, solenoid valves, and reverse osmosis membrane arrays against abrasive sand, rust, and suspended particles.

Key Technical Features and Functional Advantages:

• Three-Piece Configuration (Head, Locking Ring, Sump): The threaded union collar pulls the sump straight upward, preventing O-ring friction and wear while ensuring effortless housing opening during scheduled maintenance.
• 1/2" Female Brass Thread Inserts: Heavy-duty brass inserts embedded into the composite head protect ports from cross-threading and ensure leak-tight mechanical pipe connections.
• High-Impact Transparent Sump: Delivers complete visual clarity, allowing maintenance operators to evaluate sediment, string-wound, or carbon cartridge life in real time.
• Integrated Manual Air Relief Valve: The top-mounted bleed valve releases trapped air after cartridge changes and depressurizes the housing safely prior to maintenance.
• Industry-Standard 10" Compatibility: Fully compatible with all standard 10" x 2.5" sediment, wound, pleated, carbon, and scale-inhibiting cartridges.

Primary Applications in Car Wash Technology and Industry:

• Mechanical pre-filtration for CAT and Hawk high-pressure plunger pumps in jet wash facilities.
• Sediment protection upstream of water softeners, iron removers, and reverse osmosis (RO) units.
• Protection of solenoid valves, chemical dosing injectors, and wash nozzles from debris blockages.
