Filter-separator for natural gas
Gas-filter of FS type is intended for cleaning the natural gas, non-aggressive mixtures of gases from mechanical impurities, from aerosol an condensed moisture. Mounted on line gas pipelines, in front of stop and regulating valves of gas-burning devices, boilers, heat generators, gas-burning installations with the purpose of increasing reliability and durability of operation of equipment.

Filter FS represents a vertical vessel of a column type, with the lower ellipsis bottom, upper cover, comprising the following main units and parts:
- filter body with inlet and outlet flange connection;
- detachable cover for access to filtering elements;
- two filtering elements made from glass fiber (or porous cast aluminium);
- plug valve for drainage of condensate.
