SupaSep LGP
The removal of fine liquid aerosols from process gas streams is essential in protecting equipment and guaranteeing process performance. The new SupaSep LGP provides exceptional separation performance through a combination of pleated and meltblown technology, which promotes rapid drainage of the coalesced liquid and eliminates potential carry-over.
Developed in partnership with leading academic experts in coalescing technology, the new design utilizes a patented process for the application of the outer drainage layer. This innovative design is key to the performance of SupaSep LGP.
The highly efficient pleated glass microfibre coalescing media ensures that fine aerosols are coalesced into large droplets as they travel through the depth of the media. The patented meltblown drainage layer then allows the coalesced liquid to quickly separate and drain to the base of the filter.
The fine inter-pleat fibres promote the disengagement of bulk liquid from the downstream side of the coalescing media, while the graded density structure of the drainage layer controls velocity profiles to prevent re-entrainment into the gas flow. This innovative design provides downstream liquid levels typically below 3 ppbw, ensuring that downstream processes are fully protected.

Features and Benefits
Patented meltblown drainage and anti re-entrainment zone
- Drainage layers are bonded to the pleats for increased strength
- Prevents pleat movement during variable flow which could damage the GF media
- Pleat separation is guaranteed, maximizing surface area and minimizing pressure drop
- Prevents drainage layer from separating from coalescing layer, which could reduce efficiency
Inter pleat microfibres
- Accelerated drainage of the coalesced liquid
- Larger volumes of liquid can be separated
- Operating differential pressures not affected by flow interruption
Oleophilic drainage
- Prevents ‘beading’ of coalesced liquid on the outside of the drainage layer
- Prevents small droplets from re-entering the gas stream
