AN INNOVATIVE CONCEPT ...

The threaded connections of the CLEARPOINT
® compressed air filters supplier are generously dimensioned incomparison to other professional filters on the market. They are specially matched to the typical pipe diameters of various compressed air equipment, thus eliminating energy consuming pipe reductions.When combining two or more CLEARPOINT
® filters, the innovative connection maintains the fulldiameter flow.

Flow resistance of a pipe bend

Highly economical!The flow optimised inlet into the filter elementreduces flow resistance up to 75%. at same pipe length Connection

CLEARPOINT
® filter elements are installed withouttie-rods so that the cross-sectional area is fullyavailable. This reduces the flow resistance, whilethe space required for element replacement is onlyabout one third compared with other designs – agreat advantage under spatially restricted conditions. Thanks to the innovative push-fit design of the filterelements, replacement is very fast and simple. Theelement is held securely in a leaktight position byan O-ring professional seal at the top cap and three supports atthe bottom of the housing. With an extremely high void volume of 96%, the bor silicate filter material ensures that the pressure loss is kept to a minimum.Conventional filter material of sintered polyethylene only has a voidvolume of 45%. With CLEARPOINT
® filters, the cross-sectionalarea available for flow is therefore more than twice as large. Conventional filtering media are often hydrophilic, so that the fibreswill swell up and reduce the void volume. The filter then becomesclogged, the pressure loss increases, and so do the operatingcosts. By contrast, the material of CLEARPOINT
® filter elements is impregnated as a standard. This prevents swelling up of the filter material, permits a steady differential pressure, and avoids unnecessary expenditure.
