Chicago Pneumatic Air Compressor Filters

Particulate and Dust Filters

Particulate Filters:

• The particulate filter uses the Red S element to filter large particulates that originate in the ambient environment.
• Often used after a desiccant air dryer to remove any desiccant dust.
• Excellent for applications where low pressure drop is a consideration.

Fine Dust Filters

• The dust filter uses the Blue D element to act as a particulate that removes .01 micron particulates.
• A finer grade particulate filter for dust, ensure no debris is sent downstream.

Coalescing Filter

Coalescing Filter

• The standard coalescing filter uses the Red G element and provides a reliable filter for overall filtration.
• Excellent low pressure drop.
• More effective than a particulate filter because it also removes lubricant and liquids in suspension.
• Ideal as a pre-dryer filter for removing bulk solids and liquids.

Fine Coalescing Filter

• The fine coalescing filter uses the Blue C element and provides a high level of particulate and coalescing filtration.
• Most commonly seen after a refrigerated air dryer.
• Excellent prevention of oil and fluid carryover into the system.

Adsorbing Filter

Absorbing Filters

• The adsorbing filter uses Black and Silver A element and represents the filter that is not able to remove particulates, but is able to remove vapor and odors.
• Activated carbon media provides sustained protection from harmful vapors and prevents them from moving downstream in the compressed air.
• Should always be mounted after a particulate and coalescing filter, as far downstream as possible.
• Used for sensitive applications where the highest air purities are desirable: medical, electronics, pharmaceutical, etc.
