Coalescing filter elements are high-performance filtration components designed to separate liquid aerosols, fine particulates, and immiscible fluids from gas or liquid streams. As critical components in industrial filtration systems, these elements play a vital role in ensuring process efficiency, equipment protection, and compliance with environmental standards.
Model:
CAA-38
Type:
coalescer filter cartridge
Product Overview
The CAA-38 Coalescing Filter Cartridge is a high-performance filtration component designed for efficient removal of liquid aerosols, particulate contaminants, and fine impurities from compressed air, natural gas, or industrial process gases. It utilizes advanced coalescing media to merge microscopic liquid droplets into larger ones, enabling gravity separation and drainage.
