Product Description

This coalescer filter element is engineered as a direct, high-performance replacement for OEM units, specifically custom‑made with an outer diameter of 130 mm and a height of 485.5 mm. It features robust construction: SS316L end caps, an inner and outer stainless steel 316L perforated plate skeleton, and a composite filter media (specialized glass fiber or synthetic coalescing media).

Designed for hydraulic oils, lubricating oils, turbine oils, diesel fuels, and other industrial fluids, the element delivers exceptional separation efficiency by combining fine particulate filtration with advanced coalescing technology. As fluid passes through, microscopic water droplets suspended in oil adhere to the fiber surfaces, collide, and agglomerate into larger droplets. These coalesced droplets are then released from the downstream side and separated by gravity, draining into a collection sump. At the same time, solid particulates are captured by the integrated filtration layers.

This dual‑action capability reduces fluid oxidation and additive depletion, lowers maintenance costs, protects critical components from corrosion, and significantly extends system service life – making it ideal for power generation, marine, steel, and heavy industrial applications.

A coalescing filter element is a multifunctional filtration component that not only effectively removes mechanical impurities from a medium but also separates emulsified water from it—through the processes of demulsification and coalescence—by aggregating the water into larger droplets, thereby achieving purification of the medium.



 



Working Principle


The coalescing separator contains two functional elements: a coalescing filter element and a separating filter element. When oil flows through it, it undergoes four stages: filtration, coalescence, sedimentation, and separation. More specifically, the workflow is as follows: the fluid first passes through a pre-filtration layer to remove larger solid particles. Upon entering the high-precision coalescing layer (glass fiber/polyester fiber), tiny droplets coalesce into larger droplets on the fiber surface. These larger droplets settle into the collection tank under gravity. The hydrophobic separation layer blocks the remaining droplets. The purified fluid then passes through...

FAQ

 

Q1: How do I choose the right coalescing filter element for my fluid?

 

A1: Consider the following:

  • ► Fluid type and goal – For water removal from fuel/oil, choose a hydrophilic coalescer. For oil removal from water, choose an oleophilic coalescer.
  • ► Viscosity – High‑viscosity fluids require larger pore sizes to avoid excessive ΔP.

  • ► Temperature and chemical compatibility – High‑temperature or corrosive fluids need stainless steel fiber or PTFE media.

  • ► Flow rating – The element’s rated flow must be ≥ the system’s maximum flow, with margin (e.g., 20%).

  • ► Pre‑filtration – Install a 3–5 µm absolute pre‑filter upstream to protect the coalescer from solids.
     

Q2: What materials are coalescing elements made from, and when to use each?
 

A2: Common materials and their typical applications:

  • ♦ Glass fiber – High efficiency (0.1 µm), excellent hydrophilic performance. Suitable for most fuel and light oil dehydration. Standard choice.

  • Polyester fiber – Good chemical compatibility with many solvents and wastewater streams.

  • Stainless steel fiber – For high temperature (>100 °C / 212 °F), high pressure, or corrosive environments. Requires special surface treatment for hydrophilicity (more costly).
     

Q3: How often should coalescing filter elements be replaced?

 

A3: Replacement depends on three indicators:

  1. • Differential pressure – Replace when ΔP reaches the manufacturer’s maximum (typically 0.15 MPa / 22 psi).

  2. • Water removal performance – Replace when downstream water content consistently exceeds the target (e.g., >15 ppm for jet fuel).

  3. • Calendar time – Even without high ΔP, replace coalescing elements every 6–12 months. Separating elements can last longer, but replace them together if the system is critical.
     

Q4: What is the correct procedure for replacing coalescing filter elements?

A4: Follow these steps:

  1. ⇒ Depressurise – Close upstream/downstream valves and vent the housing to zero pressure.

  2. Remove old element – Carefully remove the spent coalescing element. Inspect seals and housing interior.

  3. Install new element – Ensure the new coalescing element is installed in the correct orientation (usually inside-out flow). Check that all O‑rings are undamaged and properly seated.

  4. Flush system – Before returning to service, flush briefly to remove any installation debris.

  5. Monitor – Restart slowly and verify ΔP and water removal performance.
