Structural Features
Each filter element is precision-engineered to meet OEM specifications and industry standards for maximum filtration efficiency and durability: AtlasCopco filters use corrosion-resistant stainless steel skeletons, American hydrophobic and oleophobic fiber media, and German fine-pore sponge to prevent oil and water from adhering to the filter surface, reducing pressure loss and energy consumption. They feature reliable seals to ensure no unfiltered fluid bypasses the element, with filter grades ranging from 0.01 microns to 5 microns for different applications. VELCON filters use fiberglass and pleated media for coalescing and particle removal, with a maximum operating temperature of 160°F (71°C), a maximum pressure differential of 75 psi (5.2 bar), and a recommended changeout pressure of 15 psi (1 bar). All filters have reinforced end caps and a one-piece design for easy installation and replacement, with precise fit to avoid leaks and ensure compatibility with existing AtlasCopco and VELCON equipment.
Applicable Working Conditions
These filter elements are built to thrive in the most demanding industrial and oilfield scenarios: 1) Oilfield Drilling Rigs, where VELCON FO 336-FG-10 and AtlasCopco 2901023300 filters withstand temperatures -25°C to 70°C, dust, high vibration, and exposure to sand-laden fluids; 2) Compressor Systems, where AtlasCopco 2901032200 and 2901032300 filters handle high pressure (up to 5,000 psi) and continuous operation in AtlasCopco QD90 and other compressor models; 3) Fuel and Fluid Processing Facilities, where VELCON AC718P4D and CDF210 filters purify hydrocarbon fluids, meeting strict industry standards for fluid cleanliness; 4) Industrial Manufacturing Plants, where AtlasCopco filters maintain hydraulic system performance and VELCON filters ensure fuel and fluid purity for machinery. They also perform reliably in corrosive environments, high-humidity offshore settings, and dusty onshore oilfields, compatible with standard filtration systems from major manufacturers.
Maintenance & Maintenance Recommendations (Engineer’s Practical Advice)
Our senior filtration maintenance engineers share these field-tested tips to maximize filter life and avoid costly mistakes, drawn from years of hands-on experience with AtlasCopco, VELCON, and oilfield equipment:
• AtlasCopco 2901023300 & 2901032200 Filters: Replace every 1,700 operating hours or when pressure differential exceeds 15 psid (1.0 bar)—this is the recommended change-out point to prevent filter clogging and fluid restriction. Clean the filter housing before installing a new element to remove accumulated debris, and avoid over-tightening the housing to prevent seal damage and leaks. Always use genuine AtlasCopco filters, as generic alternatives lack the precision seals and media quality needed for compressor protection.
• VELCON FO 336-FG-10 & AC718P4D Filters: Replace when pressure differential reaches 15 psi (1 bar) or every 1,500 operating hours, whichever comes first. Drain water from the filter bowl every 200 hours to prevent fluid contamination and corrosion. Inspect the filter media for tears or damage during replacement—even small tears can allow unfiltered fluid to enter the system, causing component damage.
• All VELCON Coalescing Filters: Store spare filters in a dry, clean area to avoid pre-installation contamination. Avoid touching the filter media with bare hands, as oils from skin can reduce coalescing efficiency. During installation, ensure the filter is properly seated to prevent bypass, which can render the filter ineffective.
• AtlasCopco Compressor Filters: Inspect the filter for leaks after installation; a loose filter can cause oil loss and compressor overheating. Never reuse filters—this allows accumulated contaminants to re-enter the system, leading to bearing and cylinder wear. Keep a log of filter replacement dates to establish a consistent maintenance schedule.
• General Tip: When replacing filters, always flush the system with clean fluid to remove any residual contaminants. In dusty or high-contamination environments (e.g., oilfields), shorten inspection intervals to 300 hours to catch clogging early. Using genuine filters can reduce maintenance costs by 1,200 hours per year by preventing premature equipment failure.
