Product Description and Application
The GE-15K-FC-03 is a replacement filter element kit used to maintain Swagelok FC Series gas filters. These filters are primarily engineered for on-line process analyzer systems to ensure the delivery of clean, particulate-free gas, which is crucial for the accuracy and longevity of analytical equipment.
The FC Series filters are known for their easy element replacement, which is facilitated by a drain connection port on the body that allows for maintenance without disrupting the tubing . They are typically installed horizontally to reduce space requirements on panels and are available with 1/8 in., 1/4 in., and 6 mm end connections.
Filtration Mechanism
The GE-15K-FC-03 element supports two modes of filtration depending on the system design:
Coalescing Filtration: Gas flows from the side port, through the element from the inside out. The 0.3-micron media captures tiny liquid droplets, coalescing them into larger drops that gravity-drain away, allowing dry, filtered gas to exit through the top port.
Particle Filtration: Gas flows from the top port, through the element from the outside in. The media captures solid particles, with the clean gas exiting through the side port.
Why Choose the Genuine Swagelok GE-15K-FC-03?
