 Van Gas Mist Eliminators use a special purpose coalescing filter to remove large amounts of oil and aerosols from the natural gas stream, while maintaining a pressure drop of 1 PSID or less. The coalescing filter element is constructed of a thick bed of glass fibers that self-cleanses and continuously drains oil and other contaminants. This ensures a much longer element life than pleated and borosilicate glass coalescing filter elements.
On average, the filter element only needs to be replaced every ten years!
All The housing of the Van Gas Mist Eliminator is ASME coded and is coated with white enamel. This helps prevent the filter housing from chipping, cracking and corrosion even in the most demanding environments. A five year warranty comes standard with all Van Gas Mist Eliminator housings.

Using the Flow Capacities chart below, select your lowest operating pressure at the point of
installation and read down that column to the nearest flow that meets or exceeds your requirements.
Find the nearest flow in the operating pressure column. Follow along the row to the left side of the
chart to determine the proper model number.
For inlets other than 100° F, multiply your required capacity by the applicable correction factor to the left. |
