  • Coalescing Filters: These filters eliminate liquid aerosols from gas streams using a multi-layer fine-fiber material, operating mechanically without chemical additives, suitable for pressures up to 450 bar.
Applications
WEH® filters are used in various industrial settings, including gas filling systems, laboratories, fueling stations, and vehicle applications. They are designed for different media such as inert gases, air, oxygen, hydrogen, and natural gas.
Technical Specifications
The catalog provides detailed specifications for each filter type, including operating pressures, filter fineness, and application suitability, emphasizing the importance of selecting the right filter based on media, pressure, and purity requirements.
Quality Assurance
All WEH® filters are manufactured in Germany, adhering to high standards of quality management certified by ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and the Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU.
Customization and Support
WEH® offers customized solutions for specific applications, ensuring filters meet unique customer requirements. The company provides global delivery and technical support, emphasizing a partnership-based approach to development and production.
Filter Models and Specifications
  • TSF4-Inline: Suitable for inert gases and oxygen, wear and corrosion-resistant, easy to install, with a maximum operating pressure of 420 bar and temperature range of -20°C to +85°C.
  • TSF2 Coalescing Filter: Designed for industrial applications with inert gases and compressed air, with a high particle retention capacity, operating at a maximum pressure of 49 MPa and suitable for temperatures from -40°C to +85°C.
Ordering and Spare Parts
The document provides detailed ordering information for different filter models and spare parts, including wire filter inserts and sealing rings, with various connection sizes and types available upon request.
Technical Definitions and Explanations
The document includes a technical appendix defining pressure specifications and terms like nominal pressure, maximum allowable operating pressure, and hydrostatic test pressure. It emphasizes proper installation to prevent lateral forces and highlights the responsibility of the end user in ensuring media compatibility.
Further Information
The document advises on the intended use of WEH products, safe product selection, and compliance with the Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU, stressing the importance of using WEH products within specified limits.

WEH® Filter technology for gaseous media-6

WEH® particle filters for pure gases and reliable components The smallest solids in the gas flow - metal abrasion, rust, dust, sealing residues - are frequent causes of problems in high-pressure systems. WEH® particle filters consistently eliminate these risks and protect downstream components such as valves, regulators and sensors. This keeps sensitive components clean for safe processes and long-lasting systems. Function of the particle filters The pressurized gas flows into the filter inlet and passes through a fine filter element. Impurities are separated by various physical effects: Î Î...

General information WEH® coalescing filter for dry, clean gases In many gas applications, fine liquid aerosols - such as condensate, oil or lubricants - enter the system. These increase the flow resistance, increase energy consumption and can damage components. WEH® coalescence filters reliably remove these aerosols - purely mechanically and without chemical additives. Function of the coalescence filter The pressurized gas flows into the filter inlet and passes through a multi-layer filter element made of fine-fibre material. Meanwhile, the finest liquid droplets and aerosols are mechanically...
