High-capacity filter drying for clean pneumatic supply gas
The Welker F-5 Filter Dryer removes aerosols, odorant, water, sulfur, mercaptan, and liquid hydrocarbons from natural gas or instrument air supply lines before they reach pneumatic instruments and actuated equipment. Designed for low-temperature, moisture-prone, and industrial operating environments, the F-5 helps reduce line freezing, improve instrument reliability, and cut down maintenance. With a spin-on filter body, mounting bracket, and cartridge media for clean, dry supply gas, the F-5 supports dependable operation in compressor stations, refineries, offshore production sites, processing plants, and valve automation systems.
Natural Gas or Instrument Air Supply Lines
Upstream of pneumatic instruments and pneumatically actuated equipment.
Low-Temperature or Moisture-Prone Locations
Applications where moisture, aerosols, or liquid hydrocarbons may cause freezing, downtime, or instrument issues.
Industrial Facilities
Emergency shutdown valves, control valves, automated ball valves, compressor stations, refineries, offshore production sites, and processing plants.
Resources
Spin-On Filter Body
Simplifies cartridge changeouts and helps reduce service time.
Mounting Bracket
Supports easier installation in instrumentation and supply gas systems.
Filter Cartridge Media
Removes water, liquid hydrocarbons, odorant, mercaptan, sulfur, and aerosols for cleaner, drier supply gas.
