The WT 20.82 E Water-Oil Trap is designed to protect gas analyzers by effectively separating liquids, acids, alkaline solutions, aerosols, oils, and fine dust from gas streams. This innovative device uses a Dual-Membrane-System® to ensure clean gas delivery while maintaining the integrity of downstream analyzers. It is ideal for natural gas analysis, process analytics, and refinery gas applications.
Key Features
- Dual-Membrane-System®: Ensures effective gas separation from condensate, fine dust, and liquid hydrocarbons.
- Compact Design: Features all gas connections on the lower part of the housing for easy installation.
- Bypass Function: Enables faster response times by routing partial gas flow to the analyzer while discharging the main flow.
- Easy Maintenance: Quick replacement of diaphragms without removing screw connections.
- Explosion-Proof Certification: Suitable for use in hazardous environments with ATEX compliance.
