Introduction:

The replacement PECO PCHG series gas filter separator cartridge is a great choice for removing deformable & shearsensitive contaminants found in natural gas streams. This cartridge can be used in the PECO Series 75 and Series 85 vessels, as well as in several competitor filter-separator vessels. The synthetic construction allows for an environmentally friendly product and an excellent upgrade option to traditional fiberglass cartridges. The Series PCHG provides increased flow, high efficiency and effective removal of contaminants. This equates to increased operational life, fewer change-outs, reduced maintenance and reduced costs.

Functions:

The PCHG series gas filter separator can removes contaminants such as: Asphaltenes, Coal Fines, Dirt, Iron Sulfides, Molecular Sieve Dust, Pipe Scale, Salts, Sand, Wear Metals from the natural gas streams.
