GENERAL PURPOSE FILTER
COALESCING FILTER
1.1 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Three main types of filters exist: The general purpose filter for water and particles, the coalescing oil removal filter for oil aerosols and the activated carbon filter for the removal of oil vapors.
The general purpose filter is used for most filter applications and is available from 1/8" to 2" pipe sizes. Uses are main headers, branch lines, tools, cylinders, valves and valve circuits, air agitators etc. Oil removal filters are used where very clean, oil-free air is required, such as for the supply to fluidic devices, instrumentation, air gauging equipment and air bearings.
Activated Carbon filters are used for systems where the oil vapors in the air are not acceptable; such as instrumentation and paint spraying.
1.1.1 How Do General Purpose Filters Work?
The dirt and moisture-laden air enters the inlet port and is directed into the louvers which centrifugally separate the entrained liquids and dirt which fall to the bottom of the bowl. Near the bottom of the bowl a baffle creates a quiet zone, preventing the turbulent air re-entraining the contaminants. The air, now free of water droplets and large dirt particles, passes through the filter element which removes small dirt particles. Solid particles eventually plug the element necessitating replacement.
1.1.2 How Do Oil Removal Filters Work?
Air enters the filter and passes through the element from inside to outside, where oil aerosols impinge on the borosilicate micro-fibers and are coalesced into larger drops. The drops are carried through the element until they reach the outer porous sock. The outer sock, because of its cellular construction, retains these liquids and allows them to drain by gravity to the bottom of the bowl.
Solid partilces are retained in the element and cause the pressure drop to slowly increase throught the working life of the element. When the pressure drop across the element reaches 10 psid, the service life indicator on top of the filter will show more red than green and the element should be replaced.
1.1.3 How do Vapor removal Filters Work?
Carbon filters are used to remove oil vapors and odors. The activated carbon has a porous structure which results in a large surface area. The oil vapors are attracted and adhere to this surface. There is usually a small sintered medium included in an activated carbon element to prevent the carbon particles from migrating downstream. The carbon filter reduces the maximum oil content of air leaving the filter to 0.003ppm at 70°F, i.e. To ISO 8573 class
1.7.1. If protected upstream by general and oil removal filters life is between 400 and 1000 hours.
1.1.4 Why use a Pre-Filter?
A pre-filter is simply a general purpose filter placed upstream of a higher grade filter to remove the majority of the water and larger particle contaminants and thus lengthen the life of the higher grade filter element.
A 5 micron pre-filter should always be used
ahead of an oil removal filter.
An oil removal (coalescing) filter must be
used ahead of a vapor removal adsorbing filter.
1.2 AIR QUALITY
1.2.1 What is ISO 8573? (See ALE-1-G for specification)
This is an international standard on air quality. It covers compressed air for general industrial use.
The air quality is specified using a 3 digit
code expressing the remaining content of a specific contaminant after the filter (or dryer).
1.2.2 Air Classes for Norgren Filters:
Particulate filters condition compressed air to different degrees, dependent on the micron rating of the filter. The finer filter, 5 µm, will achieve ISO 8573 class 3.7. or class 3. Applying a 40 µm filter will result in ISO 8573 class 5.7. or class 5 air.
Coalescing filters improve the quality of
downstream air to ISO 8573 class 1.7.2, the particle size is reduced down to 0.01µm, with a remaining oil content of less than 0.01ppm. Coalescing filters cannot remove oil which is in the vapor state in the supply air. One way to remove vapor is to reduce the temperature of the air flow allowing the vapor to condense, alternatively remove the vapor chemically using an activated carbon filter.

1.2.3 What Micron Ratings are Available?
The standard Norgren general purpose elements are 40 and 5 microns, with 40 microns being suitable for most industrial applications. Certain industries have 25 or 75 micron as a standard and some product ranges have these options available.
For a given element size, the smaller the micron rating the higher the pressure drop across the filter. The service life between cleaning is also less for the smaller micron filters, as small holes plug more quickly than bigger holes.
1.2.4 How do Service Life Indicators Work?
The service life (pressure drop) indicator found on top of coalescing or general purpose filters is green when the filter is new. As a pressure differential develops across the filter element with use, a spring biased red outer sleeve is pushed up. When more red is visible than green, then the pressure differential across the element is in excess of 10 psi (0.7 bar) and the element should be replaced.
1.2.5 When does the Carbon Pack Indicator Turn Pink?
The white ring around the base of the vapor removal carbon pack turns pink in the presence of liquid oil. Therefore if the ring turns pink the coalescing filter is passing liquid oil and needs replacing. If this occurs soon after the filter has been installed then it usually indicates a seal failure in the coalescing filter. Remember that visual detection is a not a substitute for scheduled maintenance.
1.2.6 How Long does an Element Last?
This depends entirely on the quality of the inlet air. If it is very poor the elements will need replacing more frequently.
In general, air service equipment should
be maintained annually. Use, quality of air and condition at examination may indicate adjustment of the maintenance interval. The following guidelines can be given: General Purpose Replace/maintain annually. The Filter: element can lose 15% efficiency
each time it is cleaned. Elements are low cost, so it is advisable to replace them.
Coalescing: Evaluate after 12 months of
servicing. If the pressure drop across the element exceeds 10 psig (0.7bar) then the element
requires changing. Activated Carbon Should be changed every 1,000 Packs: hours usage or when odor is
detected. The life depends
significantly on ambient
temperature.
1.3 PLASTIC BOWLS
Norgren transparent plastic bowls are made from polycarbonate. Some competitors use other materials such as Grilamid.
Both these materials are extremely resilient and have an excellent safety record. However these transparent plastics will degrade when subjected to excessive heat, solvents and some chemicals, which can lead to crazing and finally bowl failure.
Over the last few years metal bowls and guarded plastic bowls have become increasingly popular driven by the emergence of guidelines recommending the use of guards.
Some organizations have their own internal standards which call for guarded plastic or metal bowl and the general market trend is away from plastic bowls in the 1/2” or above port size units. This trend is reflected in our latest Excelon 74 and Olympian Plus product ranges. Plastic bowls remain the most common option for 1/4” and smaller units.
Never use polycarbonate bowls at conditions which exceed the maximum rated pressure and temperature of 150 psig (10 bar) and 125°F (50°C).
Certain chemicals, common in some oils and solvents, can attack polycarbonate and cause the bowl to burst. If the compressor intake is located in an area containing incompatible vapors, these contaminants can be drawn into the compressor and conveyed to the bowl in the compressed air. This can result in bowl failure.
Synthetic compressor oils may be drawn in from the compressor and can also result in bowl failure.
If doubt exists as to the compatibility of certain fluids with polycarbonate, please contact Applications Engineering.
Metal bowls should be used where temperatures exceed 125°F (50°C) and/or pressures exceed 150 psig (10 bar), or when materials are present which are incompatible with polycarbonate. Maximum rated operating conditions for metal bowls depend on the range; check APC-104.

1.4 DRAINS
1.4.1 Semi Automatic:
A semi-auto drain is one which operates when the air-line is depressurized eg at the end of a shift. It is a normally open two-way valve which is held closed by 7-10 psig (0.7-0.8 bar). When the filter is pressurized, the drain may be operated manually by pushing the tube, which protrudes outside the bowl, upwards.
1.4.2 Automatic:
An automatic drain is a two-way valve, which will close when the system is pressurized. The drain opens when the float rises due to accumulated liquid and on depressurization.
1.4.3 Where should an Automatic Drain be Used?
Automatic Drains should be used where the filter location may make servicing difficult, where filters may be hidden from view and consequently be overlooked or where equipment is in continual use. Areas where large quantities of liquid may accumulate over a short period of time should also be equipped with auto-drain filters. High labor costs for draining a large number of filters manually will generally justify the use of auto-drains.
Machines which have been shut down for a long period of time, such as over a weekend, can draw slugs of water during start-up which can overload a filter unless drained immediately. (This situation can normally be handled by a drip leg drain, see.)
Norgren float type automatic drains are ‘normally open’ type drains. During periods when the air line pressure is shut off, the automatic drain will open allowing liquids to drain rather than flood the air line piping system. When re-pressurizing the air line, the automatic drain valve will close when pressure reaches approximately 10 psig (0.7bar). This results in a flow through the drain to atmosphere of about 1.77 scfm (0.84dm3/s) until the valve automatically closes. (See 1.4.4 below.)
1.4.4 Where should a Low Flow Automatic Drain be used?
In systems where the compressor capacity is insufficient to close a number of standard auto drains a ‘low flow’ drain is available which requires only 0.5 scfm flow before closing. An ultra low flow auto drain is also available. ‘Low flow’ drains have less clearance around the valve for expelling contaminants, so should only be used where the standard unit cannot be used. ‘Low flow’ drains can be identified by red plastic parts.
1.4.5 07 Automatic (spitter) Drain:
When a rapid increase in flow occurs through the filter it results in the pressure above the drain’s diaphragm being less than that below it. This differential pressure causes the drain to momentarily lift and ‘spit’ out the condensate collected underneath the drain.
1.4.6 Where should a Drip Leg Drain be Used?
The drip leg drain is a system protection device. Most compressed air distribution systems have varying flows and/or are shut down at the end of a working day. As the system cools, water in the compressed air condenses and collects in the distribution pipe work. This water will run along the pipe work and settle at the low point(s). On start up of the plant this water can be pushed under pressure into the nearest device or process and cause malfunction or damage.
By running a vertical pipe down from
these low points water will flow into the drip leg drain where the automatic drain will expel it.
A filter screen within the drip leg drain
prevents particles interfering with the auto-drain operation. A ball valve should be included above the drip leg drain to allow for maintenance when the system is running.
1.5 PERFORMANCE
1.5.1 Performance of General Purpose Filters
Filters have their flow measured in terms of the pressure drop across them. As the flow increases then the pressure drop also increases. These pressure drops are energy losses in the system.
A well designed filter not only removes water and particles efficiently, but also has a low pressure drop at a given flow. The flow figures quoted in Norgren catalogues for general purpose filters are at a pressure drop of 5 psig (0.3 bar), from a 100 psig (7 bar) inlet pressure.
Beware! not all competitors quote their flows under the same conditions. If a higher inlet pressure is used or a higher pressure drop is quoted then the apparent flow will be higher. This does not mean it is a better unit , simply that a different point on the curve has been selected. Often the only way to compare units is to test them under the same laboratory conditions.
1.5.2 Performance of Coalescing Filters:
The maximum flow of an oil removal filter is usually determined by the oil removal efficiency under saturated conditions. In the catalog there are maximum flows quoted ‘to maintain stated oil removal characteristics.’ These are the steady state flows which should not be exceeded to guarantee that the oil in the outlet air remains below the
0.01ppm (parts per million) quoted. Cyclic or pulsating flows will result in oil carry over, as will elevated temperatures.
If a higher oil carry over is acceptable (or there is no oil in the air-line) then higher flows are achievable, and will be determined by the ‘acceptable’ pressure drop. For a new (dry) element a flow which gives a pressure drop of less than 5 psid (0.3 bar) is recommended.

1.6 FILTER SIZING
Selecting the proper size of filter for any application should be done by determining the maximum allowable pressure drop which can be caused by the filter. The pressure drop can be determined by referring to flow curves provided by the manufacturer.
The flow characteristic curves should relate to the fluid used, pressure, pipe port size and micron rating of the filter element. Often the parameters of pressure and flow are labeled in metric and imperial units. The vertical axis is the pressure drop across the filter, and the horizontal axis is the air flow through the filter. Each curved line represents the filter flow and pressure drop characteristics for different operating pressures.
Example Find the pressure drop across the filter when operating at 90 psig (6.2 bar) and when 50 scfm (24 dm
3
/s) is flowing through
the filter. Answer Locate 50 scfm (24 dm3/s) on the
horizontal axis. Read up to the intersecting point on the 90 psig (6.2 bar)operating curve. The pressure drop (or p) is approximately .6 psid (.04bar) on the vertical axis on the left of the graph. (See graph)
1.7 MEMBRANE DRYERS
For those applications where a low-pressure dewpoint and low installation/operational cost are required, Norgren provides an Excelon® Membrane Dryer. This new product can provide dewpoint suppression up to 80°F (26°C) below ambient temperature and is available with nominal flows of 2, 5, 10, 20, and 30 scfm.
The Membrane Dryer is a variable dew point suppression device constructed of an anodized aluminum body with end caps. Inside the body are bundles of special hollow fibers (membranes) which are semi-permeable. Moisture-laden air enters the fibers and water vapor permeates through the walls to the outside of the fibers. Dry air exits the device through the outlet port. A small percentage of dry air is diverted across the outside of the fibers to sweep away and vent water vapor to atmosphere.
This device provides variable dew point suppression inversely related to flow. Lower flows through a unit will increase contact time with the membrane fibers, resulting in greater dew point suppression. Higher flows will result in a decreased level of dew point suppression. Additionally, dew point suppression is directly related to operating pressure. Increasing the pressure applied will result in a greater level of dew point suppression. Therefore, it is always recommend placing regulators downstream of a membrane dryer to ensure the highest pressure possible through the membrane dryer.

ALE-Filter
Absence of an Industrial Standard for Rating Pneumatic Filter Elements
There is not an industry wide standard for establishing the micron rating of pneumatic filter elements. Standards by various industry associations, including the National Fluid Power Association (NFPA) and Inter national Standard Organization (ISO), are in discussion. In the absence of an industr y standard, some manufacturers of pneumatic filters make claims concerning the micron rating of their so called “standard” element which can not be substantiated and are probably not valid.
Norgren’s Method of Rating and Testing Pneumatic Filter Elements
Norgren particle removal filter elements are rated by the size of the particle they will trap (i.e., a 40-micron element will remove particles 40-microns and larger). Norgren tests filter elements by using standard coarse and fine test dusts of known particle size distribution. Coarse dust consists of 12% par ticles smaller than 5-microns; fine grain dust consists of 39% particles smaller than 5-microns.Test results show that a Norgren filter element rated at 40-microns actually removes over 98% of particles 5-microns and larger.
How to Size a Filter Element
The downstream equipment being protected determines the micron rating of the filter element. Industrial tools, such as air hammers and drills, typically require only a 40-micron element. Air operated instruments and small, high speed tools typically require a 5-micron element. Always consult the equipment manufacturer for filtration requirements.
Generally, the smaller the micron rating of the element,
the higher the pressure drop across the filter,
the shor ter the element ser vice life.
Therefore, the use of a 5-micron element where a 40-micron is adequate penalizes the customer in increased pressure losses and frequent down time for changing or cleaning the filter element.
ISO Standard 8573-1. Compressed Air for General Use
Contaminant’s found in industrial compressed air systems include solid particles, water, and oil. ISO 8573-1:1991 provides a simple method of classifying these contaminant’s.A quality class required for a particular application can be defined by listing, in order, the class required for solids, water, and oil.
Examples: Air of Quality Class 2.2.2 is filtered to 1µm solid particle size, dried to -40°F (-40°C) pressure dewpoint, and filtered to an oil concentration of 0.1mg/m
3
.
Air of Quality Class 5.3.4 is filtered to 40µm solid particle size, dried to -4°F (-20°C) pressure dewpoint, and filtered to an oil concentration of 5mg/m
3
.
When a class for a particular contaminant solid, water, or oil is not specified, the number designating the class is replaced with a hyphen.
Example: Air of Quality Class 1.–.1 does not specify the pressure dewpoint.
