● Impuries are inherent in chlorine gas because it is packaged in steel containers. The principal
impurity being Ferric Chloride. The amount of Ferric Chloride that deposits out in a chlorine gas system is a
funcon of the quality of the chlorine used. Impuries will always precipitate out of gas if it re-liquefies.
This is a common occurrence at points where there is a sudden pressure drop or varying temperatures.
● A chlorine filter will remove the nuisance causing impuries in chlorine gas. The filter has two
chambers. The lower poron acts as a trap for liquid impuries. The sudden enlargement decreases the
velocity so that gas is unable to carry entrained droplets of liquid chlorine which is high in Ferric Chloride.
The upper poron has a removable filter cartridge. The filter element is especially impregnated so that the
Ferric Chloride “plates out” rapidly as it passes through the element. Therefore, the filter acts as both a
filter and a condensate trap.
● It has 2 Stages of filter Assembly with Filter Holder Monel 400 & Acvated Alumina & Glass wool.
