E200 & E100 SERIES FILTER
ELEMENTS
(FOR F200 & F100 SERIES FILTERS- ALL GRADES)
PRODUCT PURPOSE & FUNCTION:
Van Air's E200 & E100 series filter elements provide long service life as well as ease of maintenance. With push on style
elements, there are no tie rods, gaskets, nuts and bolts. Both the particulate and coalescing elements will operate efficiently for
extended periods of time until a pressure drop of 10 PSID has occurred. Our differential pressure indicators and gauges can visually
alert when element changeout is needed. The activated carbon elements (RD grade) must be changed to suit specific applications,
or at least every 6 months.

ELEMENT REPLACEMENT
NING
TO REDUCE ENERGY CONSUMPTION FROM EXCESSIVE
PRESSURE DROP AND MINIMIZE CHANCE OF CONTAMINANT CARRYOVER, INSTALL NEW ELEMENT WHEN
PRESSURE DROP REACHES 10 PSID (EXCEPT GRADE
RD). INSTALL NEW RD ELEMENTS WHEN HYDROCARBON VAPORS ARE FIRST DETECTED DOWNSTREAM OR
AT LEAST EVERY 6 MONTHS.
Close inlet and outlet shutoff valves (and open bypass valve
1.
if provided), or lock out all compressed air supply to filter
housing.
On units with auto drain valve, push a 3/16" allen wrench into
2.
the ADM-2 or ADM-2-2 outlet (See Figure 1) to open valve.
(Note: stand clear of outlet, liquids may be released.) Leave
valve open until all pressure is out of the filter housing. On units
with a manual drain valve, stand clear and turn manual valve
(petcock) until full open. Leave valve open until all pressure is
out of filter housing and bowl is removed.

WARNING
DO NOT UNSCREW FILTER BOWL FROM HEAD UNTIL
VESSEL IS COMPLETELY DEPRESSURIZED.
3.
After all pressure is out of filter, grasp filter bowl firmly with both
hands (models F200-15-1/4 through F200-55-1/2) or place
strap wrench around the bowl (models F200-85-3/4 through
F200-1000-3). Turn bowl counterclockwise as you face the
bottom to unscrew from filter head. If preferred, strap wrenches
can be used on all bowls. Make sure that the bowl does not
drop.
WARNING
ON MODELS F200-600-3 AND LARGER, PROVIDE SUPPORT UNDER BOWL BEFORE REMOVING. BOWL IS
HEAVY AND COULD CAUSE INJURY IF ALLOWED TO
FALL.
Grasp clean element by bottom endcap and push element
6.
onto element adapter firmly, but do not force beyond normal
stop.
Check o-ring in filter head. Replace if worn or damaged.
7.
Clean and lubricate threads on bowl with light grease. This will
8.
facilitate removal of bowl at next servicing.
Carefully raise filter bowl over element and screw into head,
9.
then tighten. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
Close manual override if automatic drain or manual drain valve
10.
(petcock); then slowly open inlet and outlet shutoff valves.
Close bypass valve (if provided). Filter is now in service.
Monitor differential pressure regularly and replace element as
11.
indicated.
E100 FILTER ELEMENTS
Many E200 series replacement elements fit in the F100
series filter housings. See E100 & E200 Replacement Elements
