If you need advice on coalescing filters then make your first step to contact Classic Filters. We have wide experience and expertise in the are of coalescing filters.
How does the coalescing filter work? Liquid aerosols and droplets in the gas stream enter the coalescing filter. The high efficiency filter element uses borosilicate glass microfibres to capture the aerosols and droplets. As the liquid aerosols pass through the the filter element they flow along the fibres they coalesce together and grow in size….
What is a Hydrogen Electrolyser? An electrolyser is a system that uses electricity to break water into hydrogen and oxygen. Using electrolysis, the electrolyser creates hydrogen gas. The oxygen that remains is released into the atmosphere or can be collected for other industrial applications. Why are Filters Needed? The hydrogen will contain large amounts of…
Do you need a biogas filter system? The biogas produced by the anaerobic digestion of organic waste can be converted into biomethane, this is called biogas upgrading. To help prevent further CO2 emissions, this 100% renewable energy can be used to replace fossil fuels. Biogas upgrade technology Various biogas upgrading technologies are available such as…
One question that is becoming more popular is about reducing servicing times. We like to address this challenge with the SV new designs. Traditional Coalescing Filter Housing Here we can see the traditional T-shaped coalescing filter housing fitted with a continuous drain. To gain access to the filter element the tube and fitting connected to…
Do you need a high pressure hydrogen filter? Here at Classic Filters we are used to solving high pressure applications and supply high quality hydrogen filters in different working pressures: 700 bar, 1050 bar and even up to 1400 bar. Your hydrogen application needs a safe and reliable filter. Hydrogen filters with flexibility Up to…
Alternative energy is certainly very much in the news recently. Classic filters have helped the development of hydrogen fuel cell power modules in various countries around the world by providing high quality filtration units. Fuel cell power modules Our distributor in Denmark, PG Flowteknik , has been very active in supporting OEM customers in this…

We are an original manufacturer of oil mist filter cartridges and produce these coalescing cartridges for OEMs all over the world. The gas turbine power plant uses oil mist separators, such as…
Do you need 486 coalescing cartridges? The 486 coalescing cartridge is the equivalent of GE Part No. 328A7187P003. This filter cartridge is an oil mist eliminator used in gas turbine power plants. We are an original manufacturer of Type 486 and produce these coalescing cartridges for OEM customers. They specify them in applications around the…
So you’ve seen our blog on how to choose the right filter element, that we posted last a few weeks ago. Now we are going to explain how to make sure your selecting the correct filter housing for your application. As you probably know, we offer a wide range of filter housing and element combinations….
Element dimensions – Disposable microfibre types Understanding part numbers is never an easy task. So we thought we would break ours down and explain what the significance is of each number; thus making it easier for our customers to know what they require, when ordering disposable filter elements How the part number is arranged Filter…
Analyser protection usually consists of a coalescing and/or a particulate type filter to remove liquids and solids. But what happens when the housing isn’t serviced and becomes flooded with liquid? The liquid will carry over and reach the sensitive (and expensive!) analyser – we have discussed this on the blog before in this post System…
Fibrous filters, especially those manufactured by Classic Filters from borosilicate glass microfibers, are considered to be the most ideal filter media for the removal of liquid aerosols from gases – this is called coalescing filter. Borosilicate Glass Microfibers for Coalescing Filters Borosilicate glass microfibers are naturally hydrophobic and do not adsorb liquid – the aerosols…

As the filter starts to work solids are removed by the microfibres and the porous structure of the filter element is slowly filled. This will increase the pressure drop across the filter element. The disposable filter elements are designed to have an initial pressure drop of 0.1 bar when used on gas applications. Our disposable bonded microfibre…
A customer requested a special CNG filter housings with two outlet ports. This presented no problem for us as we can make housings with any configuration you can imagine. It’s our flexibility that customers love – if you need something special incorporated into the filter housing design we are happy to help. High Pressure Coalescing Filters With…
Generally engineers required to install a filter on a pressurised fluid system will go for the cheapest possible option. More often than not this will also be a sintered powder or granule filter element where it can be cleaned out and the element doesn’t need replaced very often. What is wrong with a sintered powder…
