For higher viscosity fluids, consult your PETRO Representative. VF Series Filters are designed to accommodate our standard 6 in. O.D., 3.5 in. I.D., 14.5 in. long cartridges that are stacked one, two, or three high. Many cartridges are available in longer lengths that eliminate stacking. For example, a 44 inch long FO-644PLF1M could be used in place of three 14.5 inch long cartridges. This makes for easier and less expensive changeouts. A number of threaded base filter cartridges ( e.g. FO-644PLF5TB) are available, which allow for easier cartridge changeout and removal of particulate matter from the deckplates. See data sheet # 1549. The threaded base cartridges mount on the 6000T Adapters. Dimensions shown are for estimating purposes only. For exact dimensions, obtain certified drawing. VF16 and VF20 Series vessels have flat covers. VF16 Series vessels do not have hydraulic lift jacks. Available Aquacon Cartridges are AC-6xx05 and AD-6xx25 where xx represents cartridge lengths of 14, 29, and 44 inches. FO SERIES - PLEATED MEDIA FILTER CARTRIDGES High Efficiency, Long Life Cartridges for Industrial Fluids Large Surface Area ? Allows high flow rate with low initial pressure drop and maximum contaminant holding capacity. Resin Impregnated Media ? Maintains strength, resists effects of water and heat. 75 psi Collapse Strength ? Heavy gauge carbon steel center tubes give safety margin against pressure surges. Coated Steel Components ? Resist corrosion from most industrial fluids. Corrugated Media ? Prevents pleat pinch-off, assuring all filtration media is utilized. Buna-N Gaskets ? The best general gasket material available assures positive seal in most fluids. Thermoset Bonding Material ? Durable endcap-to-media bond prevents internal bypassing Threaded base filter cartridges ? Available for easier installation. APPLICATIONS Velcon Pleated Media Cartridges are suitable for a broad range of polar and non-polar fluids. Recommended for applications where the contaminant is granular ( non-colloidal) , allowing maximum utilization of the high surface area.

Easy to install and remove Does not affect oil additives Fits standard filter housings Aquacon Cartridges have a patented* construction for removing dirt and water from hydrocarbon and other oils as well as gases. The outer media layer filters out silt, rust and other particulate contaminants. The inner layers absorb water and chemically bond it so that no water will release downstream. When the Aquacon Cartridge reaches its water holding limit, the media swells shut and the differential pressure rapidly increases. This signals the operator that the cartridge must be changed. APPLICATIONS Gasoline Kerosene Diesel Fuel Insulating Oil Biodiesel Hydraulic Oil Turbine Lube Oil Quench Oil Synthetic Oil Phosphate Ester Oil TECHNICAL INFORMATION Maximum operating temperature is 250 F. Aquacon Cartridges will shut off flow when loaded with water or dirt. Appropriate precautions should be taken in critical applications where oil flow must be maintained. With some lube and hydraulic oils all of the water may not be removed in one pass, and extra passes will be required for total removal. Water capacity for the AC-718 cartridges ranges from 2 to 4 quarts. WARNING: Absorbent-type monitor cartridges will not remove water from fuel containing alcohol-blending agents ( commonly called gasohol) . For removal of solids, please use Velcon particle removal filters specifically made for gasohol. Consult your Velcon representative. CARTRIDGE INFORMATION New types of Aquacon Cartridges are being introduced continually. Contact your local Velcon Representative for up to-date information. Model Number Micrometer Reading I.D.

FG SERIES - FIBREGLASS CARTRIDGES Velcon Fiberglass Depth Cartridges have proven superior in filtering colloidal or slimy contaminants. Lube oil and EDM coolant filtration are this type of application where fiberglass elements consistently filter better with dramatically longer life than other types of media.
