For Water Droplet • Oil Mist • Moisture Control Applications
Â
Airsan Type AFD Mist Eliminators are engineered for air handling systems that require reliable removal of water droplets, moisture, and oil mist from the airstream. Built for demanding industrial environments, the AFD delivers high-efficiency moisture coalescence while maintaining strong airflow and low pressure drop.
Engineered for Moisture & Oil Mist Removal
The Type AFD is designed to coalesce and drain fine water droplets and airborne oil aerosols before they reach downstream filters or sensitive equipment. Key features include:
- Progressive Density media design for high-efficiency droplet capture
- Drain holes on all four sides for proper moisture removal and weepage
- Modest pressure drop, even in high-moisture environments
- Low operating and lifecycle costs due to its durable, reusable design
These characteristics make the Type AFD ideal as a pre-filter in systems requiring moisture control, contaminant protection, and extended downstream filter life.
Applications Across Industrial Environments
Airsan Type AFD filters are widely used in industries such as:
- Acid production facilities
- Fertilizer plants
- Steel mills
- Asphalt plants
- Large power plants
- Cooling towers and humidifier systems
- Air intake housings exposed to rain, humidity, or wet conditions
In supply air systems, the Type AFD captures droplets associated with:
- Cooling coil carryover
- Evaporative media
- High humidity
- Wet or fog-prone environments
This prevents moisture from migrating downstream and damaging filters, coils, or mechanical components.
Material & Construction Options
AFD panels are available in:
- Galvanized steel
- Aluminum
- Stainless steel
Custom materials and configurations are available upon request to meet system-specific requirements or corrosive environmental conditions.
Key Benefits
- High-efficiency removal of moisture and oil mist
- Protects downstream filters and extends their service life
- Improves system cleanliness and workplace safety
- Low pressure drop and long operating life
- Durable metal construction suitable for severe-duty environments
- Customizable for unique air handling applications
