Separator Cartridges are employed as the second stage in filter/separator vessels. Their sole function is to repel coalesced water drops produced by the first stage cartridges while allowing hydrocarbon fluids to pass through. Water drops settle into the filter/separator sump and are not carried downstream. All particle filtering is done by the first stage coalescer cartridge.
Features
Separator Cartridge Performance
Maintaining a uniform flow along the length of the cartridge optimizes performance and reduces the number of cartridges required. Flow is controlled by a tube, inside each cartridge, through which the hydrocarbon fluid exits the cartridge and the filter/separator vessel. Two styles of inner tube are offered.
Cartridges with uniform hole pattern inner tubes are adequate for many applications. However, where optimum flow distribution is required, cartridges with variable hole pattern inner tubes are recommended. When converting older equipment, a lesser number
of variable hole pattern cartridges is usually required. Operating costs will therefore be reduced.
