Van Air F101-2000 Compressed Air Filter Housing

The Van Air F101-2000 Filter Housing can handle 2,000 SCFM at 100 PSIG. Van Air F101 Series filter housings are built to last! All F101 HT Series compressed air filter housings are built of welded steel and are stamped in accordance with ASME code section VIII, Div. I. All F101 Series filter housings receive a rigorous hydrostatic pressure test of 1.3 times the maximum working pressure of the vessel.

The exterior of the F101-2000 filter housing is protected by a coating of primer and air-dried machine enamel. The interior of the housing is protected by alkyd enamel. Both of these coatings help protect against corrosion, chipping and cracking to increase the durability of the housing.

The F101 Series of compressed air filter housings consists of six different housings, with flows ranging from 500 to 5000 SCFM at 100 PSIG. Custom units are available for flows up to 20,000 SCFM. The inlet and outlet connections of all the housings are NPT or ANSI RF flanges on a common centerline and include ports for pressure differential gauges.

The filter element is accessible through a flange located at the bottom of the housing. All of the flanges up to 10" in diameter are equipped with a retaining pin on one of the bolts. This permits the flange to be rotated away from the bottom of the filter housing without completely removing it from the housing assembly. Therefore, filter elements can be replaced with relative ease.

All of our F101 Series compressed air filter housings are equipped with a ball type manual drain valve. However, a Van Air automatic drain valve can be installed to automatically drain the filter housing when needed. This prevents the filter from flooding and which could cause damage to the filter element or contaminate the air system.
