What is a Bag Water Filter?

Bag Filter Filter Systems are highly versatile units capable of filtering virtually any liquid. They work using the concept of mechanical filtration.

Water flows into the centre of the bag, then pushes its way through the bag material. Liquid penetrates through the material, with particulates being trapped within or on the materials surface.
