INSTALLATION & USE
Setting Up Your Harmsco HIF-24
- Position the housing on a level surface with at least 13" x 13" floor space and verify 68" overhead clearance for cartridge removal and maintenance access.
- Connect inlet and outlet lines to the 2" NPT ports using appropriate thread sealant rated for your system pressure and media type.
- Attach drain line to the 1" NPT drain port and route to an appropriate waste collection point or drainage system.
- Install 24 cartridges of your chosen micron rating or triple-style cartridges depending on your filtration requirements and desired flow rate.
- Pressurize the system slowly and inspect all connections for leaks before bringing the unit to full operating flow.
COMPATIBILITY
Cartridge Options
The Harmsco HIF-24 accepts any standard 20-inch cartridge or Harmsco triple-style cartridges for extended surface area and service life. Common applications include sediment filtration, carbon block adsorption, pleated polyester, melt-blown polypropylene, and wound cartridges in micron ratings from 1 to 100. The stainless steel construction is compatible with most industrial fluids, food-grade applications, and corrosive environments where plastic or coated steel housings would degrade.
🔧 Pro tip: When running high-solids applications with the HIF-24, consider using a graduated micron strategy—install coarser cartridges in the first few positions and finer microns downstream to extend overall system life and reduce changeout frequency.
