Andair Gascolator Reverse Flow GaS500F 3/8 NPT Fml Ftg

Description

Andair manufactures Gascolators for both 3/8" and 1/2" lines. Both types have a screw locking ring that prevents the bowl from coming off, and a facility for this to be wire-locked. The bowl is internally sealed with an Viton (R) O-ring. A PTFE coated 70 micron Stainless Steel mesh is used as the filter screen.This premium gascolator is machined from solid aluminum and anodized. The PTFE coated 70 micron washable screen provides excellent flow characteristics and minimal pressure drop. Mounting is made using the 9/16 The PTFE coating helps prevent water from passing, by maintaining it as a droplet formation. A large filter area is present and wide passages have been incorporated so that the pressure loss through the Gascolators is kept to an absolute minimum. There is an 1/8 NPT hole on the bottom of the bowl so it can be drained and also one on the top of the body. This one can be used as a pressure tapping or a filtered supply to the primer pump. A selection of fittings can also be used with the GAS375 and the GAS500. All the Gascolators include a self bleeding air bleed. Here, on first use, and immediately after the bowl/filter has been removed the air trapped inside will automatically be purged out.
