1. Centrifugal Spinning = Water, dirt and oil contaminants are spun in a downward circular motion through the air. The spinning action forces heavy particles outward and towards the drain.
2. Final Filter Media = Our elements are composed of stainless steel. The filter captures excess sub-micron water droplets. Filtration to 3.0 micron.
3. Stainless Steel Element = Pre-cleaned air enters a filter media composed of finely interwoven stainless steel mesh wires.The striated surface efficiently holds aerosol and liquid droplets, which then fall into the drain area.
4. Inverse-Flow = ALC’s Inverse-Flow process creates a condition where the air, spinning in a downward circular motion, changes direction 180 degrees and begins to flow vertically upward. The contaminants are not capable of reversing direction and must separate from the air flow. The process prevents re-entrainment of the contamination which can occur in other filter systems.
5. Bowl and Drain = Our bowls are metal and drains have an automatic float to release stored water.
