. The water filter housing shows a fault on the bottom cover of the housing. This failure manifests as a circumferential crack that completely separates the bottom cover from the housing. This failure caused the property to be installed to suffer a lot of water damage.
Analysis of the stresses and forces on the water filter housing during operation identified two major sources of stress. Stress is generated at the threads of the housing and stress is caused by internal water pressure. The stress on the threads is created while tightening the water filter housing to seal it to the water filter base. Structural analysis was performed to determine which areas were exposed to high stresses. The maximum stress (reddish red) occurs at the inner corner of the bottom cover. This is the exact location to analyze the failure of the home. The higher stress is at the minimum radius (stress concentration... less
