CA11‑5 Coalescer Filter Element Jet Fuel Coalescing Cartridge For Refinery Aviation Kerosene Purification

Product Overview

In petroleum refinery jet‑fuel production process, trace free and emulsified water mixed in aviation kerosene will seriously threaten flight safety. coalescer filter element is the core consumable for liquid‑liquid separation inside coalescer vessels, Gas Filter Element series covers this CA11‑5 model for aviation fuel dehydration service. This cartridge adopts multi‑layer gradient coalescing media, breaking stable emulsified state, gathering tiny water droplets into large droplets for settling separation. It is installed inside refinery fuel treatment skid, focusing on aviation kerosene purification scenario, strictly following fuel‑industry separation performance requirements.

Basic Technical Parameters

Refinery Aviation Fuel Processing Application Scenario

This CA11‑5 coalescer filter element targets refinery aviation kerosene post‑treatment working condition. After distillation, aviation kerosene contains micro‑emulsified water and fine solid impurity. If water remains in finished jet fuel, ice crystal will form under low‑altitude‑low‑temperature environment and block aircraft fuel pipeline. The CA11‑5 coalescer cartridge is installed at the final purification stage before finished‑product storage tank. Different from gas‑phase natural gas filter cartridges, it works for liquid‑phase hydrocarbon medium. Matching Interchangeable Hydraulic Filter Elements can do auxiliary particle pre‑filtration ahead of coalescer vessel to extend coalescer service cycle.

Core Product Advantages

Gradient‑structure coalescing media realize high‑efficiency demulsification for stable oil‑water emulsion, without adding chemical demulsifier. Strict dimensional tolerance guarantees sealing performance inside pressure vessel, avoiding bypass leakage which will cause incomplete water removal. Media material has good compatibility with aviation‑grade hydrocarbon fuel, no medium dissolution or secondary contamination. Each cartridge completes performance inspection simulating jet‑fuel working‑condition before delivery. It can serve as drop‑in replacement for original imported coalescer consumables in refinery skid equipment.

Manufacturer & Factory Strength

Xinxiang Lifeierte Filter Corp.,Ltd has complete coalescer‑separator production workshop. We test liquid‑liquid coalescing performance according to oil‑gas‑industry acceptance standard. Besides refinery‑used coalescer cartridges, we also produce many series of gas‑phase filter consumables for petrochemical plant. We can provide complete‑set solution together with hydraulic filter assembly for whole‑site fluid‑filtration project. Small‑batch sample testing and bulk refinery‑project supply are both supported.

FAQ

Q1：What medium is CA11‑5 coalescer filter element suitable for?
A1：Mainly for liquid‑phase jet fuel / aviation kerosene liquid‑liquid coalescing dehydration; it is not designed for pure gas‑phase natural gas filtration.

Q2：Does CA11‑5 need pre‑filter protection?
A2：Strongly suggest arranging pre‑filter to intercept large‑size solid particles. Heavy solid pollutant will block coalescing media pores and sharply shorten service life.

Q3：Can CA11‑5 replace imported Facet coalescer cartridge?
A3：We support interchange customization, please provide original part‑number or dimension drawing for technical verification.

Q4：How to judge CA11‑5 coalescer needs replacement?
A4：Replace when system differential pressure rises to setting threshold or outlet‑phase water‑content index exceeds specification requirement.

Q5：What is the biggest risk if coalescer cartridge fails in aviation‑fuel system?
A5：Residual emulsified water enters finished‑product aviation kerosene; under low‑temperature condition water forms ice crystals, which may block aircraft fuel pipeline and bring hidden danger for aviation safety.
