Facet industrial separator cartridges provide efficient separation
of water in a wide range of fluid process streams. These high performance
liquid/liquid separators are used in applications where API certification
is not required. The use of Facet industrial separator cartridges
instead of conventional liquid/liquid separators can help reduce
operating costs and improve product quality.
Facet industrial separator cartridges are manufactured
using proprietary combinations of high performance filter media
and pleat configurations. Facet has developed continuous length
separator cartridges to retrofit most commercially available single
length separators. The use of continuous length separators minimizes
process downtime, reduces cartridge change-out costs and eliminates
filter bypass concerns.
Generally, the pleated paper configuration is considered
the best general purpose separator having an extended surface area
and being changed simultaneously with its companion coalescer. Selection
must be based on the physical and chemical properties of both phases.
As in the case of coalescer cartridges, separator cartridges may
be used in most finished petroleum products, but caution must be
exercised in compatibility of not only the media, but adhesives,
metal parts and gaskets.
Pleated paper separators provide a 5 micron filtration
barrier. It is also offered in a 25 micron.
Teflon separators provide a 74 micron filtration barrier.
Synthetic separators provide a 50 micron filtration
barrier.
Both Teflon and synthetic separator cartridges can
be cleaned and reused in accordance with Facet
procedures.
Facet is continually working with customers to optimize
separator performance. Facet industrial
separator cartridges are available in numerous configurations to
replace most conventional
coalescing cartridges. Facet can develop special configurations
to meet specific applications
requirements.
