Why Use Coalescing Filters

Since air can be hot, humid, and dirty, air preparation is a crucial process, and the air used in the compressed pipeline should flow through a filtration, conditioning, or lubriion process. Coalescing filters are used in compressed air systems to remove oil droplets and fine particles as small as 0.01 microns. Since unwanted oil will stick to moving parts and reduce the speed of the cylinder, coalescing filters are an important part of air preparation. In combination with a universal filter that sucks out water and larger particles, the coalescing filter discharges oil droplets into a bowl.
