Filters for Dryers

Ingersoll Rand offers their NL Module Coalescing filter and their F-Series filter, which have both been rigorously tested and engineered to reduce contamination, perform reliably and produce high-quality air consistently.

F-Series Filters

F-Series advanced compressed air filters reduce contamination in your air stream to help protect critical processes and valuable equipment. Rigorously tested and engineered with superior components, F-Series filters will provide years of reliable performance and consistently high quality air.

Features

  • Accurate Information: Patented dual indicator shows differential pressure drop and operating efficiency

  • Rugged Design: All-aluminum, suitable for 176 degrees F/80 degrees C & 250 psig/17.2 bar MAWP applications

  • Reliable Operation: Filter element with stainless steel mesh withstands high pressure and minimizes flow restriction

  • Easy Maintenance: Ergonomic bowl design with no-touch filter simplifies element replacement

  • Lone Element Life: Proprietary media coating technology protects against corrosion and increases element life

NL Module Coalescing Filters

Ingersoll Rand NL Module coalescing filters are designed to remove oil and water aerosols from compressed air. Before selecting a unit, check the model’s rated flow, operating pressure and temperature limits, and pressure drop at your expected flow. Confirm the drain configuration and recommended inspection and element replacement schedule for the proposed unit.

Features

  • Efficient Equipment Protection: High-efficiency and coalescing filters with particulate filtration to 0.5 ppm, > 3 microns at 100%, between 0.1 to 3 microns at 99.98%

  • Pressure Drop: Compare pressure drop at the required airflow and operating conditions. Use the selected model’s data sheet rather than a single value for every application.

  • Application Versatility: Effective on all common mineral and synthetic lubricants

  • Class 2: Effective oil removal - 2 ppm in 0.01 ppm out - 10 ppm in = 0.05 ppm out

  • Maximize Uptime: Enhanced process security that reduces the effects of catastrophic air/oil separator failures

  • Operating Costs: Evaluate the filter’s pressure loss, drainage requirements and maintenance needs as part of the complete compressed air system.

How it Works

Air contaminated with mineral or synthetic lubricant and water aerosols enter the NL Module housing…

  1. Air flows horizontally through a deep filter bed

  2. Sub-micron particles collect on individual bed fibers and coalesce to form droplets

  3. As the droplets move through the filter bed, they become larger and their resulting weight forces them to drop to the bottom of the housing

  4. Low internal velocity prevents oil re-enactment, while the large surface area keeps the pressure drop very low over the life of the element. The long residence time through the deep filter bed ensures the highest coalescing efficiency. Automatic or manual drains can be used to discharge lubricant and water that accumulates in the bottom of the housing

  5. Compressed air and drain hookups are all that’s required to integrate an NL Module into your compressed air system - no electricity is used. No loss drains are included with each model.
