The Model PC 1410 PVDF EL is a particle and coalescence filter designed for process gas analytics, particularly in gas processing applications.

Key Features:

• Dual Filtration Methods: Capable of filtering gases and liquids (particle filter function) or separating liquids and aerosols (coalescence filter function) within a single housing, providing versatility in various applications.
• Horizontal Installation: Designed for horizontal mounting, minimizing space requirements and facilitating integration into existing systems.
• Easy-Filter-Change System: Allows for simple front-side replacement of filter elements without the need to disconnect fittings, reducing maintenance time and effort.
• Self-Cleaning via Bypass Connection: Equipped with a bypass connection that enables self-cleaning, maintaining optimal performance and extending filter life.
• 360° Rotatable Housing: The filter housing can be rotated by 360°, allowing for flexible connection configurations to suit various installation requirements.
• Electroconductive Housing: Constructed from polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) with carbon content, making it electroconductive (10⁶ Ω/mtr.), suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
• Made in Germany: Manufactured to high-quality standards, ensuring durability and performance.
• Certified Compliance: Complies with ATEX 2014/34/EU regulations, suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
