ARC activated carbon filters provide reliable and economical filtration in medium-duty, semi-critical applications. Their filter media consist of multilayers of impregnated activated carbon polyester felt with spun bonded PP pre-filter integrated into a robust cage with reinforced end cap. The ARC works to protect your investment, equipment, and processes. It offers low-pressure drop and high flow rates, with minimal pressure loss across its lifetime.
Key features:
- Low-pressure drop
- Large carbon surface area
- No fluidization, channeling or bypass
- Reduction of oil content to <0.003mg/m3
Applications:
They can be used for:
- Compressed air and nitrogen filtering
- Oil vapor removal post-coalescing stage
- Pre-filtration prior to oil-sensitive equipment
- Hydrocarbon removal in areas of poor air quality
