Coalescing Filters

Part No: E1160X1

Core Technical Specifications

Absolute Filtration Accuracy: Solid particles, liquid oil & water aerosols ≥1 μm

Multi-layer extra deep-pleated imported HV borosilicate gradient microglass composite media, outer integrated thick hydrophobic & oleophobic PU drainage foam. Built-in liquid diversion anti-re-entrainment barrier prevents separated liquid oil and water from being re-carried by ultra-high-speed large-volume industrial airflow.

Operating Limits

Max Working Pressure: 1.6 MPa

4,000–8,000 operating hours / 12 months (whichever comes first) under clean low-dust industrial environments; shorten to 2,000–3,000 hours for paint spray booths, metal foundries and high-humidity dusty workshops. Mandatory replacement when differential pressure ΔP ≥ 0.06 MPa.

Initial pressure drop of brand-new element: ≤0.0055 MPa (55 mbar)

Max saturated allowable differential pressure: ≤0.125 MPa (125 mbar)

Mandatory alarm replacement threshold: ΔP ≥ 0.06 MPa

End Cap: Reinforced blue PA plastic integrated multi-claw bayonet lock cap with internal flow diversion channels

Seal System: One-piece molded NBR nitrile rubber O-ring, zero bypass leakage, resistant to compressor oil aging and acidic condensate corrosion

Inner & Outer Support Cage: Double-layer heavy-duty perforated 304 stainless steel mesh, reinforced anti-collapse structure to withstand full rated large airflow deformation

Key Product Advantages

Mid-stage primary coalescing barrier to drastically extend service life of downstream high-precision and carbon filters

Installed after E1160X5 particulate prefilter and before E1160XA ultrafine filter, it intercepts massive condensed pipeline water, rust scale and large 1μm liquid oil mist. It drastically reduces liquid contamination load on downstream high-precision filter elements, extends overall consumable service cycle and cuts factory large-scale maintenance expenditure.

Ultra-large dust & oil holding capacity with stable low differential pressure for 24/7 heavy industrial production

Proprietary extra deep-fold microglass matrix stores huge volume of oil sludge, carbon deposits, pipeline rust and solid dust without rapid pressure rise, perfectly matching non-stop round-the-clock heavy-duty production for large manufacturing plants. Outer high-performance white hydrophobic foam rapidly drains all separated liquid to the filter bottom drain port and minimizes oil re-entrainment risk in turbulent large airflow.

Heat-stabilized glass fiber media eliminates fiber shedding and full-system pipeline contamination

High-temperature fully cured borosilicate microglass media maintains complete structural integrity under sustained 80°C operating temperature without softening, pulverization or fiber shedding. Zero glass fiber debris enters large-bore industrial piping to block heavy spray manifolds, industrial laser optical lenses and large proportional process control solenoid valves.

Low permanent differential pressure energy-saving design to reduce main air compressor power consumption

Uniform ultra-wide gradient pleat layout delivers minimal airflow resistance over the full service cycle even under full rated maximum flow capacity. Stable low backpressure reduces continuous motor loading of large industrial screw air compressors and significantly lowers long-term factory electricity operating costs.

Working Principle

Large-volume pre-dried compressed air flows through the filter cartridge from outside to inside central core:

Large water droplets and coarse solid impurities are trapped by outer thick white hydrophobic foam and drain down to the large filter bowl drain port by gravity.

1μm oil-water micro-aerosols collide and coalesce into large separable liquid droplets while passing through multi-layer gradient borosilicate microglass media.

Outer integrated anti-re-entrainment foam barrier prevents separated liquid oil and water from being re-carried by high-speed large-volume industrial compressed airflow.

Collected oil and condensate are automatically discharged via heavy-duty industrial electronic zero-loss drain valve.

Medium-clean air with residual liquid oil ≤0.3 mg/m³ flows downstream to E1160XA ultrafine coalescing filter for secondary high-precision polishing purification.
