Sporlan® 800006

Description

Sporlan® offers an exclusive concept in suction filter design a filter with an optional relief feature. When flow is in one direction the bypass relief feature is active. If the pressure drop across the element becomes excessive the bypass relief will open slightly to maintain sufficient gas flow and assure proper cooling of the hermetic motor. When the suction filter is installed with flow in the opposite direction the bypass relief feature is inactive and will never open, regardless of the increase in pressure drop. Compressor manufacturers have found that system contaminants such as metal chips, foreign particles, oxides, etc. can cause motor burnouts. This material is carried through the suction line and becomes imbedded in the motor windings. The natural flexing of these windings during start up causes these particles to scrape the motor insulation resulting in motor burnout. The solution to this major problem is adequate filtration just ahead of the compressor. The filter will remove solid contaminants in the piping following installation. The filtering media used in the sporlan suction filter has sufficient area and depth to provide excellent filtration and still keeps the pressure drop to a minimum. The T in the type number indicates that these models are equipped with an access valve to permit pressure drop readings. Checking pressure drop with the access valve can only be performed when the suction filter is installed with the bypass feature inactive.
