CAA33-5SB High-Performance Coalescing Filter Cartridge

Product Introduction

### **1. Product Concept**

The CAA33-5SB is engineered as a premium-grade, high-performance coalescing filter cartridge designed to deliver uncompromising air purity and operational reliability in demanding industrial environments. It represents an enhanced iteration within its series, incorporating specialized silicone sealing technology ("SB") to ensure consistent performance under elevated temperatures and challenging conditions. The core concept integrates superior mechanical filtration with advanced material science, targeting applications where standard filters may fail due to thermal stress or chemical exposure, while maintaining the high contaminant-holding capacity of a 5-inch extended media p

2. Key Features & Advantages

Advanced Filtration Technology

The CAA33-5SB employs multi-layer gradient-density glass fiber media engineered for 0.01 μm liquid aerosol removal efficiency exceeding 99.98%. This precision engineering enables the cartridge to consistently achieve ISO 8573-1:2010 Class 0/Class 1 air quality standards, providing exceptional protection against oil and water contamination that can damage sensitive equipment and compromise product quality.

High-Temperature Resilience with Silicone Seals

Featuring specialized silicone (VMQ) O-ring seals (indicated by the "SB" designation), this filter maintains integrity and performance in elevated temperature environments up to 100°C (212°F) continuous operation. The silicone construction offers superior resistance to ozone, weathering, and mild chemical exposure compared to standard nitrile seals, ensuring reliable performance in challenging industrial conditions.

Optimized Energy Efficiency & Extended Service Life

With an initial pressure drop below 0.05 bar at 100 SCFM flow rate and 65% larger filtration area than conventional 5-inch elements, the CAA33-5SB delivers significant energy savings of 3-5% compared to standard filters. The optimized pleat geometry ensures even flow distribution and extends service intervals by 2-3 times, reducing maintenance frequency and lowering total cost of ownership by 30-40% over a three-year period.

Robust Construction for Maximum Reliability

Built with a 304 stainless steel perforated core and anodized aluminum end caps featuring anti-rotation design, the cartridge withstands burst pressures exceeding 50 bar. The dual-stage drainage protection system prevents liquid re-entrainment, while the bypass-free design with positive lock mechanism eliminates risks of unfiltered air contamination, ensuring continuous protection for critical processes and equipment.
