Application
The M&C front panel mounting extra-fine
filters reliably separate solids, in particular very
fine particles, occurring in analysis techniques
in gas filtration, using very fine, deep-acting
filter elements. The large filter surface of the
cylindrical filter element with 75mm length
guarantees reliable extra-fine filtration and a
long service life with low pressure drop.
The optional integrable liquid alarm sensor
LA3 is used in gas sample conditioning sys-
tems for monitoring gas cooling and conden-
sate drain-off devices in order to provide pro-
tection for downstream analysis instruments.
This simple monitoring device reliably signals
the penetration of condensate in the event of
cooling or condensate drain-off equipment
being defective and thus avoids expensive
down times as well as high repair costs for
analysis instruments.
In the event of alarm, the power for the
sample gas pump or a solenoid valve is to be
switched off in the gas sample conditioning
system.
Description
Special features of the M&C FPF+ front panel
mounting filter are large filter surface, big
variety of different filter element materials
and porosities, integrable liquid alarm sensor,
low stagnant space, simple construction and
assembly as well as universal usability.
The condition of the filter can be seen imme-
diately from outside through the filter glass
without opening the filter fitting. No tools
are needed for changing the filter element;
here, the optimum positioning of the seal-
ing O-ring always guarantees reliable sealing
between filter glass and filter body.
The gas connections are located at the back
in the filter body. If no liquid sensor is used,
the inlet of the measuring gas can be turned
by 90° steps at the front ring attachment so
that a flexible adjustment to local conditions
is possible when assembling.
Corresponding tube connectors can be
optionally supplied (see data sheet 11.6).
The optional integrable liquid sensor LA3
works on the principle of electrical conduc-
tivity from 50 µS/cm conductance. In order
to avoid electrolytic effects on the sensor
surface, the sensors are powered with alter-
nating current.
The liquid sensor is located in the sample gas
inlet that any droplets of liquid in the sample
gas are attracted under gravity to the sensor
surface and even the smallest liquid droplets
trigger a sure and rapid alarm.
The required electronic controller LA-1.. is
available in various versions and is described
in the separate data sheet 8.2.
