Choosing the Right Velcon Filter Housing

A common question arises when customers want to know which application is best suited for the different Velcon filter housings. There are 4 different filter housings that come to mind and they’re VF-31E, VF-61, VF-61 E, and VF-62. These filter housings are meant for unique applications such as Jet Fuel, Aviation Gasoline, Motor Gasoline, Diesel Fuel, Oils, Compressed Air and other gases. Now the way I would distinguish the difference between them all is primarily through flow rate. If an application requires a flow rate between 1-15 Gallons Per Minute, the VF-31E would be the appropriate filter housing. If the application requires a flow rate of 5-50 GPM, the VF-61 and VF-61E is the appropriate choice. And if the application calls for a higher flow rate like 10-100 GPM, then the VF-62 is the appropriate choice. I hope this helps out.
