3M™
BH Series
ASME Code Bag Housings
3M™ BH Series housings, for use with conventional bag filters or 3M DF
Series filter elements, are available in single filter element configurations for either
#1 or #2 filter sizes. The BH Series housings, offered in either side (Model 1BHS)
or top entry (Model 1BST) flow paths, are constructed with carbon steel or 31 6L Stainless Steel. The BH Series also offers a choice of either flange (Model 1BHT) or NPT
(Model 1BHS) inlet and outlet connections. All BH Series housings include either a bag
filter or a 3M DF element 316 stainless steel filter support basket. The housings are rated
to a maximum allowable working pressure of 150 psi @ 300°F and are manufactured and
stamped to comply with the ASME code. Housing installation in new or existing systems
is simplified by the band clamp legs which can accommodate up to a 12 inch adjustment
in floor to outlet height.
