Pentek® Valve-in-Head Filter Housings represent an innovative improvement on an industry standard housing type used in many water and fluid filtration applications from residential use to commercial and industrial applications. The Valve-in-Head (VIH) design adds an integral isolation valve and pressure relief button to the head of a standard filter housing. This allows the user to isolate the filter and change the cartridge without the need to install external isolation valves. As in the standard housing, the VIH is very adaptable since it is available in 10 and 20 lengths with a generous 3/4 NPT. Standard Filter Housings are supported with a broad range of sediment, carbon, and specialty cartridges for many filtration and water purification applications. Valve-In-Head Filter Housings are available in Opaque or Clear sump or bowl options and an optional pressure-relief button available, too.
Valve-In-Head Filter Housings accept all Double Open End filter cartridges that are 2 1/2 to 2 7/8 diameter and meets the following lengths:
VIH #10 - cartridge length 9 3/4 or 9 7/8
VIH #20 - cartridge length 20
