Ingersoll-Rand 24242174 Filter Core for Screw Air Compressors

A Filter Core is the central filtration component in liquid, gas, or hydraulic systems, designed to remove contaminants (particulates, debris, or impurities) while maintaining optimal flow rates. It serves as a replaceable or cleanable element within filter housings, ensuring system cleanliness and equipment protection.

• Hydraulics - Protects pumps/valves from abrasive wear
• Fuel Systems - Ensures clean combustion in engines
• Compressed Air - Removes water/oil aerosols
• Water Treatment - Sediment filtration
• Food & Beverage - Sanitary process filtration

1. Micron Rating - Match to target contaminant size (e.g., 10µm for hydraulic systems)
2. Media Material - Choose chemically compatible media (e.g., PTFE for acids)
3. Flow Requirements - Size core to avoid >10% pressure drop at max flow
4. Environment - Stainless steel for corrosive settings; plastic for lightweight needs

• Pressure Gauge - ΔP > 15 PSI signals clogging
• Visual Inspection - Discoloration/deformation requires replacement
• Service Life - Typical 3-12 months (varies by contaminant load)

• Custom Designs - Odd sizes or special materials (e.g., nickel alloy)
• Validation Testing - Bubble point, multi-pass efficiency reports
• Rapid Delivery - 80% of SKUs in stock for urgent needs
