How It Works
Liquid enters the filter housing and is distributed across the filter bag. Contaminants are trapped inside the bag while clean liquid passes through the filter bag and exits through the outlet. When the bag reaches capacity, simply remove the used bag and replace it with a new one — no tools required on most models.
Available Accessories & Options
