Modular coalescing filter for compressed air systems operating below 52 °C. Removes 99.98% of oil and particles above 0.3 µm, with an optional 0.01 µm element. Provides low pressure drop, saturation indicator sight glass and high air flow. Ideal for lines with industrial dryers, coolers and reservoirs.
Master Pneumatic developed coalescing filters for use in compressed air systems with coolers, dryers and reservoirs operating below 52°C. Coalescing filters remove 99.98% of oil as well as all solid contamination larger than 0.3 microns.
As an option, we offer a filter element for particles down to 0.01 microns, which produces a 20% pressure drop.
M/P coalescing filters are normally used with M/P filters that, when installed close to and upstream of the M/P coalescing filter, act as pre-filters, allowing complete liquid removal and ensuring long service life for the coalescing filter.
The Vanguard Modular series is supplied with model 103-151 differential pressure indicator sight glass, which provides a practical and efficient way to determine the correct time to replace the filter element.
The easy-to-read sight glass indicates the filter element condition by color: green – clean element, or red – dirty element.
The Vanguard High Capacity series is also supplied with model 106-35 double-sided differential pressure indicator, which indicates:
• Green: clean element (maximum 6 psi);
• Yellow: intermediate stage (maximum 9 psi);
• Red: dirty element (more than 9 psi).
