JFS-512 Natural Gas Separator Filter Cartridge | 5 Inch Tapered Gas-Liquid Separation Element

Product Overview

The JFS-512 filter cartridge features a unique 5-inch tapered conical structure, which greatly improves the overall filtration throughput compared with traditional 3-inch filter elements. The internal integral reinforced support cage provides excellent compression resistance and impact resistance, avoiding medium deformation and layer separation under high gas velocity. The advanced hydrophobic fiber material has ultra-low liquid adhesion, which can quickly aggregate fine liquid droplets and realize rapid gravity sliding and separation. The filter medium has excellent chemical stability and can resist erosion from natural gas condensate, methanol, glycol and other common pipeline chemical additives, ensuring long-term stable operation without performance degradation.

Full complete JFS series model list: JFS-312, JFS-324, JFS-336, JFS-348, JFS-372, JFS-512, JFS-524, JFS-536, JFS-548, JFS-572. Cooperated with JFG, JMG, FG and PCHG series filter cartridges, it can form a complete two-stage coalescence and separation purification system to meet various natural gas treatment requirements.

Working Principle

JFS-512 tapered separation filter adopts external-internal radial filtration and gravity coalescence separation technology:

1. The natural gas containing micro liquid droplets and fine solid impurities flows from the outer layer to the inner core of the filter element.

2. The gradient hydrophobic fiber medium intercepts solid particles and adsorbs scattered liquid aerosols.

3. Tiny liquid droplets continuously collide and coalesce into large liquid droplets, sliding down along the tapered surface by gravity.

4. The separated liquid settles in the bottom of the filter vessel and is discharged, while dry and purified natural gas is delivered to downstream pipelines.

Application Scenarios

JFS-512 large-diameter separation filter is widely used in small and medium-sized natural gas gathering stations, pressure regulating and metering stations, city gate stations and skid-mounted gas purification equipment. It is mainly used for secondary separation after primary coalescing filtration to remove free water, hydrocarbon condensate and fine solid impurities in natural gas. In addition, it is also applicable to gas-liquid purification treatment of industrial gases such as nitrogen and carbon dioxide, providing dry and clean gas source for downstream precision instruments and compressor equipment.

Product Advantages

1. 5-inch wide-diameter design greatly increases gas flow rate, solving the problem of insufficient throughput of small-size filter elements.

2. Higher dirt holding capacity effectively extends service cycle and reduces equipment shutdown and maintenance frequency.

3. Super hydrophobic medium avoids liquid secondary entrainment and ensures long-term stable outlet gas quality.

4. Optimized low-resistance flow channel reduces system pressure difference and saves operating power consumption.

5. Standard general-purpose size supports direct plug-and-play replacement with high cost performance.

FAQ

Q1: What is the difference between JFS-512 and 3-inch JFS models?

A1: JFS-512 adopts a 5-inch large-diameter structure, which has larger filtration area and higher gas processing capacity, suitable for systems requiring higher flow rate, while 3-inch models are used for conventional small-flow equipment.

Q2: Can JFS-512 work alone for gas purification?

A2: No. It is a secondary separation filter element and must be used with a primary coalescing filter to achieve complete gas-liquid separation effect.

Q3: What is the working temperature range of JFS-512?

A3: The continuous working temperature is -40℃ ~ 120℃, which can adapt to most outdoor natural gas pipeline working environments.

Q4: Is JFS-512 suitable for sulfur-containing natural gas?

A4: The standard model is suitable for conventional non-corrosive natural gas. Custom anti-corrosion materials are required for high-sulfur corrosive gas conditions.

Q5: When does JFS-512 need to be replaced?

A5: Replace the filter cartridge when the system pressure difference rises to the alarm value or liquid carryover appears at the gas outlet.

Q6: Can JFS-512 replace JFS-3 series filter elements?

A6: No. The diameter and installation size are different, and cross-model replacement is not supported. Please select according to the filter housing parameters.

Q7: Is customized service available?

A7: Yes, we support customized size, interface structure and special filter media according to customer requirements.
