3 AGB Series
Air/Gas Vertical Housings
The Facet 3 AGB Series vertical housing permits
easy access for inspection or change out of media.
The baffle plates at the inlet remove a large amount
of solid particulate matter and entrained liquids
which are collected in the quiescent sump. The
large sump area also provides for slug control.
Use of the impingement baffle permits coalescer
cartridges to function more efficiently in the removal
of microscopic solids and the fine liquid entrainment.
OPERATION
Gas stream enter housing at point (A). Through
the use of baffling at point (B), impingement of
solid particulate matter occurs. A certain amount
of liquid entrainment will drop out with solids and
collect in quiescent sump. Mist and minute solids
will flow upwards and enter coalescer cartridges,
points (C). Oil mist particles will be coalesced and
solid particulate matter will be removed. Gas stream
will flow from inside-out. Coalesced droplets will be
repelled by specially treated separator cartridges,
point (D). Liquid will fall to bottom. An upper drain
connection is available for this liquid to be removed
at point (H). Gas stream will flow through separator
cartridges (D) outside-in, and on through internal
piping to outlet point (E).
