Abstract
A housing for single-use pressure filtration units comprises upper and lower parts. A filter element is to be clamped between the housing parts. The upper housing part, preferably molded in one piece of synthetic material, includes a plurality of radial ribs which hold the filter element down, and a baffle disk supported solely by the ribs. The disk is spaced beneath the axial inlet duct to prevent direct impingement of axially incoming pressurized fluid against the filter element. Only some of the ribs support the disk, the remaining ribs terminating short of the disk to promote uniform radial distribution of fluid deflected by the disk. Radially inner ends of the disk support ribs are inclined downwardly and inwardly and act in funnel-like fashion on the inflowing fluid.
