The MHT-7100 High Tech Air Compressed Air Filter is a high-efficiency, high-capacity water trap / compressed air filter with an advanced hydrophilic
media cartridge. The filter removes particulates, condensed moisture and oil aerosols from compressed air for spray booths and critical refinishing
operations and provides for the quickest, cleanest cartridge change in the industry.
FEATURES
High-volume water trap combined with a hydrophilic depth cartridge that removes
particulates, oil and water aerosols. Overnight drain valve drains accumulated
moisture when pressure is off. Uses (1)
M-710
drop-in replacement cartridge.
SPECIFICATIONS
Inlet/Outlet Size: 1/2 NPT
Nominal Airflow Rating:
30 SCFM
Filtration Rating: .01 Micron
Maximum Inlet Pressure:
125 PSIG
Operating Temperature Range: 40-120 °F
Install unit in spray booth or near critical operation with at least 20 feet of supply line between unit and compressor. Failure to maintain this distance will
cause excessive water vapor to pass through unit. Unit is designed for installation in a 1/2" line; use appropriate fittings for installation in other line sizes.
Apply pipe thread compound to male thread connections. Before installing unit, relieve upstream pressure completely. Install unit level and in direction
of airflow as noted. Unit should be mounted to a rigid structure and should not be supported by the supply line.
WARNING: This product is intended for use in industrial compressed air systems only. Do not install where pressures or temperatures can
exceed those listed above.
Unit is supplied ready for use. Air tight plugs should be removed just prior to installation to ensure filter cartridge is not exposed to air. Installation of a
supply valve (not provided) can be used to isolate unit during servicing and to activate overnight drain.
A 1/4” ID flexible drain hose may be connected to overnight drain valve (3) and routed to an approved drain to prevent water accumulation in work area.
Before pressurizing, be sure bowls are turned fully clockwise. Pressurize slowly to avoid high-pressure surge.
Open service valve fully (1) so that handle is parallel to inlet pipe.
Inspect daily for leaks.
Check drain (2) by shutting off supply pressure and relieving downstream pressure. Accumulated liquid should drip slowly from drain.
Filter should be disassembled, cleaned and serviced periodically.
