WORKING:

• Compressed air or gas enters the inner core of the cartridge & flows outwardthrough the extended area filter media & perforated metal casing.
• Airborne droplets are coalesced by the filter media & subsequently concentrated onthe outer surface.
• Gravity forces the coalesced liquid to the bottom of the filter housing where it can bedrained easily.
• The air or gas stream continues on virtually free of oil, moisture and particulates.
• 

PRINCIPLE:

Flow is from the inside to the outside of the cartridges. Oil, water & other liquid aerosols pass through the filter media where their reduced velocities allow them to "wet" the filter fibers thus forming large droplets. These cartridge droplets continue moving through the filter media. The droplets collect on the outer cartridge and drain, by gravity, to the bottom of the filter cartridge housing where it s collected through an extended sump outside.

Although the cartridges will remove particulate, it is recommended that a particle filter be installed upstream of the coalescing filter, operating in the standard outside to inflow configuration .This will significantly extend the life & improve the removal efficiency of the moisture - oil removal coalescer filter cartridge.
