Shroud-Deflector Filter Housings
A simple and effective method for prefiltering sample streams with high particulate content is the use of a shroud-deflector tube surrounding the outer wall of the filter element. This permanent shroud redirects the incoming flow, causing heavier debris to settle at the base of the housing.

Description
A simple and effective method for prefiltering sample streams with high particulate content is the use of a shroud-deflector tube surrounding the outer wall of the filter element. This permanent shroud redirects the incoming flow, causing heavier debris to settle at the base of the housing. This option is available for all T-Type style housings, regardless of material.
Performance Recommendations:
- Use a five-layer stainless steel filter element with the smallest micron rating that meets flow requirements.
- Employing the finest practical micron size prolongs element life by preventing larger particles from embedding in the filter wall; instead, these particles settle to the bottom of the bowl.
The design minimizes annular volume to increase velocity turbulence, while maintaining the lower one-third of the element exposed for direct flow. A secondary polishing filter is recommended downstream to capture any residual material.
Ordering Information:
To specify this option, add the term “Shroud” to any of our T-Type filter model numbers.
