Product Overview
SO644CA Velcon Separator Cartridge
SO-644CA Velcon Two-Stage Coalescer/Separator Cartridge is a high-performance separator cartridge, featuring TCS media and a uniform tube type, engineered specifically for two-stage filtration/separation systems. Specifically, it is designed to repel coalesced water drops while allowing hydrocarbon fluids to pass through, tailored for both aviation and industrial applications.
As a professional separator cartridge, it serves as the second stage in filter/separator vessels, ensuring no water carryover downstream and protecting equipment from water-related damage. Additionally, its blind end cap configuration, precise dimensions, and Buna-N seal material enable seamless integration with compatible filter/separator systems.
Key Features
Optimum second-stage water removal capability effectively repels coalesced water drops. Moreover, it ensures hydrocarbon fluids pass through smoothly, preventing water carryover to downstream equipment.
Versatile media options include Teflon® Coated Screen (TCS), Synthetic, or Pleated Paper Media. Additionally, it caters to diverse application needs, from aviation fueling to industrial fluid processing.
Field-proven performance guarantees reliable operation in harsh and high-demand scenarios. Thus, it delivers consistent results across aviation and industrial applications.
Uniform tube type ensures consistent flow distribution along the cartridge length. Furthermore, it optimizes performance and reduces the number of cartridges required for the system.
Reusable TCS media (with proper cleaning and inspection) enhances cost-effectiveness. Consequently, it reduces replacement frequency and overall operational costs, especially for aircraft fueling applications.
Working Principle
Flow direction is from outside-to-inside: the hydrophobic separator medium on the cartridge’s outer surface repels water drops, while hydrocarbon fluids easily pass through and exit the cartridge. As a result, water drops settle into the filter/separator sump, eliminating downstream water carryover.
It functions exclusively as the second stage in filter/separator systems; all particle filtering is handled by the first-stage coalescer cartridge. Additionally, its performance is optimized by the uniform inner tube, which controls flow and ensures consistent operation.
Structure & Durability
Robust construction with aluminum tubes and aluminum/glass-filled nylon end caps withstands harsh operating conditions. Therefore, it endures the demands of aviation and industrial environments, including temperature fluctuations.
Buna-N seal material ensures a secure, leak-proof connection. Specifically, it maintains system integrity and prevents fluid leakage during operation.
TCS media (200 mesh stainless steel screen coated with green Teflon on both sides) offers exceptional durability and water repellency. Moreover, it generates less static charge than pleated paper cartridges, enhancing safety in aviation applications.
