316L Stainless
Steel Housings

Meissner 316L stainless steel housings are reusable filter housings designed for critical liquid and gas filtration in high-purity process environments. They are built from electropolished 316L stainless steel and are used to support clarification, sterilizing-grade filtration, and other demanding applications where durability, cleanability, and process integrity are important.

Meissner offers multiple stainless steel housing styles, including sanitary and industrial designs in inline, T-style, and other process-oriented configurations. These housings are available in both single-element and multi-element formats to support a wide range of flow rates and process scales.

Sanitary filter housings are designed for biopharmaceutical, pharmaceutical, and other high-purity applications where cleanability, surface finish, and regulatory expectations are critical. Industrial housings are built for robust process filtration in less demanding environments where economy and durability are often the primary priorities.

Single-element housings are often used for lower flow rates, pilot-scale work, or smaller process volumes. Multi-element housings are used when higher flow rates, larger batch sizes, or greater filtration area are needed for production-scale processing.

Meissner stainless steel housings are available in a range of capacities, from single-element designs to larger multi-element configurations for higher-volume processing. This allows users to select a housing size that matches their filtration area, flow, and scale requirements.

Available design options may include thermal-jacketed housings, low hold-up volume designs, code-stamped configurations, and other custom features tailored to process needs. These options help users optimize temperature control, product recovery, compliance, and integration into specific process systems.

Meissner 316L stainless steel housings are designed to provide long service life, strong corrosion resistance, reliable cleanability, and repeatable process performance. Their stainless steel construction supports demanding operating conditions while helping maintain product quality and process control.

Yes. Meissner sanitary stainless steel housings are well suited for biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical processing where high-purity design, cleanability, and compatibility with critical filtration applications are required.

Yes. Meissner stainless steel housings can be used with compatible cartridge filters, small flow elements, and hybrid process setups that combine reusable stainless steel hardware with single-use components. This gives users flexibility when designing traditional, hybrid, or staged processing systems.

Yes. Meissner stainless steel housings are available in multiple sizes and element capacities, which helps support scale-up from pilot operations to full production. This allows users to increase filtration capacity while maintaining a consistent overall housing platform.
