CONSLER CA AND CAS SERIES AIR INTAKE FILTERS
Element Materials
Standard elements are furnished with a durable felted
polyester filter medium offering 10 micron solids nominal
retention at 98% efficiency and a 1st stage pre-filter wrap
providing 75 micron, nominal solids retention. CA and CAS
elements can also be supplied with many alternate materials
providing a particle retention range from 0.3 to 750 microns.
Standard elements are furnished with a carbon steel center
core and galvanized steel wire mesh support frame.
Stainless steel materials are also available.
CA 140-030 MT/CA 190-120 FL
CAS 140-030 MT/CAS 160-060 FL

Element Design and Construction
The CA and CAS Series filters offer a replaceable, cleanable
element that incorporates a pleated or "radial fin" cartridge
design. The element offers maximum filter area in a
compact filter assembly, and provides positive gasket
sealing to prevent by-pass of unfiltered air. Long filter life, low
pressure drop, large dirt holding capacity and efficient
filtration are assured. The element is furnished complete with
a 1st stage pre-filter blanket wrap to trap large particulate
and extend the service life of the filter element.
A cleanable plastisol molded-end element is provided as
standard in models CA170-080 and CAS 170-080 and
smaller. Larger models are furnished with a cleanable,
sewn-end constructed element which can be
reconditioned before replacement is necessary. Following
several field cleanings this unique sewn constructed style
element can be returned to the factory for recovery and
reconditioning (see back page).
Housing Design and Construction
CAS models are furnished with a series of silencing tubes
which guide air flow into the housing enclosure. The housing
acts as an acoustical chamber providing effective reduction
of undesirable noise emitted from the air inlet of compressors
or blowers. The 2-stage felted fabric element further aids in
noise attenuation.
The housing also provides built-in protection from rain or snow
in outdoor service. All models may be mounted directly to the
air intake connection on the machinery. A low profile filter
design provides an attractive appearance and allows simple
access to the element when service is required.
Standard filter housings may also be modified or customized
to meet special application needs. Special accessories
including differential pressure gauges and indicators are also
available.
Housing Materials
Standard materials are carbon steel and are furnished with a
rust preventative primer coating beneath a durable allweather paint. Alternate materials including stainless steel are
available.
