A typical compressed air system is contaminated with abrasive solid particles such as dust, dirt, rust and pipe scale, compressor lubricants (mineral or synthetic), condensed water droplets and acidic condensates and oil and hydrocarbon vapours. If not removed, these contaminants increase pneumatic equipment maintenance costs, lead to instrument and control failure, contribute to poor product fit and finish and contaminate processes.
The right FS-Curtis filter or filter system will remove these contaminants allowing your compressed air system to deliver the quality of air required by your application; whether it’s plant air, instrument air, or medical air–helping to ensure consistent output quality while minimizing operating costs.
- Corrosion resistant cores-Stainless steel for added structural integrity
- Low resistance to flow-Seam welded for extra strength
- “Matrix blended fibre” media-large, effective surface area -improves capture rate
- Ensures high efficiencies-large open area minimizes pressure drop
- Coated, closed-cell foam sleeve – resists chemical attack from oils and acids
- Ensures high efficiencies by preventing re-entrainment of coalesced liquids
- Chemically resistant end caps bound to media with specially formulated adhesive
- Silicone free
- Withstands temperatures to 60°C
- Low resistance to flow
A choice of Six Element Grades allows you to design a system that delivers the air quality you require.
