Filter and Carbon Treatment chambers
Penguin filter chambers are offered in CPVC, polypropylene, and PVDF. The construction of the Series C chambers contains no fragile lucite or glass. There is no metal to liquid contact, no springs to lose or break, and no crushed tubes. Penguin CPVC and polypropylene chambers are recommended for most acid and alkaline solutions. PVDF chambers are recommended for high temperature acids and alkalies, HF, and electroless nickel. All Series C chambers can be mounted on a common polypropylene base and manifolded together for greater capacities or space saving requirements. For portability, casters can be added as an option. Penguin Series C double open end (D.O.E.) chambers are available in single tube, three tube, five tube, and twelve tube vessels. The Series C single open end (S.O.E.) chambers are available in single tube, two tube, four tube and nine tube vessels. Each D.O.E filter chamber is equipped with an initial Penguin 15 micron filter cartridge or set of filter cartridges. Filters for S.O.E chambers are purchased separately. Because of the unique Penguin design, these cartridges ensure maximum particle retention and no liquid bypass.

Penguin carbon treatment chambers are available with carbon cartridges or bagged granular carbon. Each Series CT carbon cartridge chamber comes equipped with a Penguin Series PC disposable carbon cartridge containing pure, low sulfur, activated carbon granules. All carbon cartridges can be replaced with filter cartridges if straight filtration is required. Carbon bag chambers contain a reusable polypropylene mesh bag to be filled with Penguin style GC sulfur-free, activated granular carbon. Depending upon the style selected, the chamber holds from 5 to 100 pounds of carbon. When the carbon becomes exhausted, only the granular carbon, and not the bag, needs to be replaced. Penguin granular carbon quickly reaches its saturation point in absorbing minimal amounts of brighteners, yet continues to have excellent absorption for organic impurities. Following organic decontamination, the solution is automatically depth filtered through a 3 micron filter surrounding the core of the carbon cartridge or set of 3 micron filter cartridges attached to the carbon bag chamber head. This traps all foreign particles and solids. Carbon bag chambers can easily be converted to straight filtration if required. All carbon bag chambers come equipped with a flow plate, polypropylene mesh carbon bag, short and long filter cartridge rods, and an initial set of 3 micron filter cartridges used during carbon treatment.
Features and Benefits:

Penguin bag filtration systems are designed to provide rapid, high velocity solution turnover, while removing contaminants that tend to surface load. In the Series BF filtration systems, the larger surface area of the single layered polypropylene filter bag provides significant longer life when compared to a graded density, string wound cartridge filter. Disposable bags are economical to use and may be easily discarded when spent or cleaned for reuse. Traditionally, bag filtration systems have been used with air sparging systems to constantly renew the plating solution that is coming in contact with the parts. A Penductor sparging system does the same thing, but refreshes the chemistry much faster, while giving you other benefits such as keeping solids in suspension for easier removal, more uniform temperature, thickness, and brightness. Since the Series BF bag filtration system is basically an open system, uniform agitation can be achieved without the need of a dedicated sparging pump.
Features and Benefits:

Penductor Systems
Penguin Penductor systems are designed for in-tank mixing using the tank fluid as the mixing medium for solution agitation. Simple in design, the Series PES Penductor systems are easy to install, operate, and maintain. Penductors utilize the fluid inside the tank reservoir as the "motive" fluid, which is defined as the fluid flowing through the Penductor nozzle. The high velocity motive fluid entrains the liquid near the suction openings of the Penductor, and mixes this liquid thoroughly as it passes through the diffuser. The resulting plume of mixed fluid, flowing at an intermediate velocity, now proceeds to mix and agitate the remaining tank liquid. The Series PES Penductor systems are completely piped and ready to be attached to the discharge of the motive driving pump.
Features and Benefits:
- Available as Systems with Pumps, Kits or Nozzles Sold Separately
- Deluxe Model Features Adjustable Nozzles
- No Metal to Solution Contact

Penguin Penductor sparging eductors offer a new twist to the current eductor craze. Based on established eductor principles, the Series PE Penductor was designed especially for industrial sparging applications. The nozzle was designed utilizing the same orifice size as a typical 3/8" NPT tank mixing eductor, with a larger connection size, thus giving you the same flow characteristics with less pressure drop. This can reduce the horsepower required on larger systems. The larger connection size allows you to use standard PVC reducing tees without extra bushings or reducing couplings, thus saving you valuable tank space. The diffuser was designed with a larger plume dispersion angle for more uniform agitation and a lower profile to allow you to utilize your tank space more efficiently. The result, the Penductor, a more efficient space-saving eductor made specifically for the surface finishing industry.
Features and Benefits:
- Flows Comparable with Conventional 3/8" Tank Mixing Eductors
- Lower Profile Helps Save Valuable Tank Space and Makes for Easier Retrofits
- Larger Connection Sizes Eliminate Need for Multiple Bushings When Using Standard Fittings or P-Series Pump
- Larger Plume Dispersion Angle Helps Eliminate Dead Spots Between Eductors
- Maximum Temperature 280 °F
