How to Specify Hydrophobic Mesh Moisture-Eliminator Air Filter

  • Face velocity: Keep below about 3 m/s or droplets re-entrain.
  • Media: Knitted SS304/316 layered with polypropylene for droplet capture.
  • Drainage: Provide a drain path at the bottom of the frame.

Materials

Standard supply is stainless steel 304, stainless steel 316/316L; the material column in the table and the drawing options show the exact grade for each size. Other alloys and finishes can be quoted to your drawing.

Fitting & Care

  • Install upstream of particulate filters, with a drip tray below.
  • Rinse off salt and dirt deposits periodically.

Common Mistakes

  • Running above the rated face velocity, which carries water through.
  • Leaving no drain path so water pools in the frame.

When Hydrophobic Mesh Moisture-Eliminator Air Filter Is Not the Right Choice

Not a particulate filter — fit standard filters downstream.
