GFPP Bag Filter 01 - Hayward Flow Control
The Hayward FLT Series Bag Filter Size 01 is engineered for durability and chemical resistance, constructed from revolutionary Platinum Glass-Filled Polypropylene (GFPP). Designed with true union end connections in sizes ranging from 1-1/4" to 2", it is available with socket, threaded, fusion, or flanged ends to suit a wide range of system requirements.
Its one-piece injection-moulded body ensures superior strength and reliability. FPM seals are supplied as standard, with EPDM seals available as an option for added versatility. The housing is pressure-rated to 150 psi at 70°F non-shock, making it a robust solution for demanding liquid filtration applications.

The maximum recommended fluid velocity through this product is eight feet per second (8 ft/s). Higher fluid velocity can create excess water hammer effect, resulting in property damage, personal injury, or even death. Please refer to I.O.M.
| Connection | Velocity | Approx Flow Rate lt/hr | |
| DN32 | 1-1/4" | 8 feet/sec | 6,900 |
| DN40 | 1-1/2" | 8 feet/sec | 10,110 |
| DN50 | 2" | 8 feet/sec | 16,830 |
Velocity in Schedule 80 Plastic Pipe for Water - Safe Flow Velocity
Hayward establishes a generally accepted safe flow velocity for plastic piping systems. For systems without fast opening or closing valves, a maximum velocity of 8 feet per second is recommended. However, for systems equipped with such valves (like solenoid or pneumatically actuated valves lacking speed controls), the maximum velocity is typically limited to 5 feet per second. In contrast, metal piping systems are often designed to accommodate flow rates of up to 15 feet per second, significantly higher than those acceptable for plastic systems. This distinction is crucial when considering the installation of plastic components such as valves, strainers, or filters within a metal system.
