Application

Monnier Oil-Coalescing Filters remove more than 99.95% of all

oil and dirt from the air you use. Oil vapors and aerosols are

removed by coalescent action, forming them into drops heavy

enough to be separated by gravity. Unlike absorption filters, they

do not become filled with oil, and will not clog on oil alone. If dirt

particles are removed upstream, these filters will separate oil

from air indefinitely.

Safety information, installation and maintenance

For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions

(IM-P504-14) supplied with the product.

Warning:

Polycarbonate bowls are attacked by phosphate ester fluids,

solvents, paint thinners and carbon tetrachloride. These and similar

substances should never be allowed to come into contact with the

bowl. Certain compressor lubricating oils also contain additives

harmful to polycarbonate and, where there is any doubt we

recommend, in the interests of safety, that a metal bowl or a bowl

guard should be fitted.

Installation note:

Fit into a horizontal pipeline with the air flow in the direction of the

arrow and the bowl vertically downwards, as close as possible to

the equipment it is protecting.

It is advisable to fit a conventional pneumatic auto-filter,

(International IF2M) immediately upstream of the coalescing filter

to extend the life of the filter cartridge. On new installations, it is

as well to blow through the pipework before fitting the filter to

ensure that the initial pipescale and dirt is removed.

Points to note:

1. Coalescing filters should be installed as close as possible to

the equipment they are protecting.

2. Do not exceed the maximum flowrate (for any given pressure)

as shown on the graphs or there is chance that some of the

coalesced liquids will be re-entrained and carried on downstream.

3. Do not overload the filter cartridge or there will be a reduction

in its efficiency and/or life. It is advisable to fit a conventional

pneumatic auto-filter (International IF2AM) immediately in front of

the coalescing filter for maximum efficiency and life.

4. For hydrocarbon vapour and odour removal use the Monnier

IX1M International compressed air filter - For specific product data

see Technical Information sheet TI-P504-21.
