"Industrial" inline sanitary air filter
« on: October 18, 2014, 07:22:27 am »
I asked a couple times on ProBrewer but with no results. Anyone know of a more industrial size in-line sanitary air filter? Google hasn't rendered much in the way of results, either. The homebrew disk shaped ones explode under pressure, break easily and have too narrow an OD barb for air delivery that I need.

What about a water based filter akin to a bong?

I wonder if a basic home depot water filter with the smallest micron filter would work? Then you could screw in 1/2" barbs...

Or google Donaldson Filters and give them a call. They have stuff so good it removes fumes.

Stuff would still be in the bubbles. If bong water removed smoke no one would use them.

right but if the bubbles are small enough and not speed through it should work. From what I have heard, bubbles in a bong are large and people tend rip pretty hard.

Found these with one search. Need the filter cartridge.

Hmmm ... not sure why I could not find those. My search criteria must be lacking. The bottom one isn't an air filter, but the top two might work. Thanks.

Maybe you want an industrial sized HEPA filter?

This is what I use for my aeration system. It is a 0.45 micron filter that is used for groundwater sampling. It has very high pneumatic flow capacity.
