Gas Filters
Improve plant production, minimize maintenance costs.
ADAMS GP Filters for air, gas or steam prevent clogging and friction wear caused by dirt, rust, pipe scale and other contaminates present in the stream. The unit operates in two stages; first, by directing flow tangentially around the tube element and against the inside wall, providing centrifugal separation of larger particles and droplets, (contaminants are captured in patented vertical slots located on filter's side walls) and second, by diffusing the gas through a permanent tube element to achieve maximum filtration. A gas flow interrupter at the bottom of the unit improves draining efficiency and reduces condensate pick-up from liquid collected before the drain.
R.P. Adams provides two types of permanent tube elements:
| PORO-STONE TUBE ELEMENT |
PORO-CARBON TUBE ELEMENT |
