A-PRO Series Flanged Filters & Water Separators

A Series
Compressed Air Filters
& Water Separators

6 to 1500 SCFM

Altec AIR’s A Series High Efficiency Compressed Air Filters feature particle retention of up to 99.999% and significantly reduced pressure loss, providing total protection of manufacturing equipment from dust carryover. Our Compressed Air Filters have been tested to provide a saturated differential pressure of less than 1.8 psi (125 mbar) across X1 and XA grades - proving to be our most advanced filter to date.

Our A Series Water Separators combine proven centrifugal technology with a new forwardthinking housing design to deliver market leading water removal efficiencies – eliminating up to 99% bulk water with continuously low differential pressure.

  • Flexible Installation - Modular design and accessible fixings enable simple close coupling assembly
  • Market Leading Performance - Custom engineered filtration media delivers optimum performance in line with air quality standard ISO 8573-1: 2010
  • Simplified Serviceability - Profiled bowl design and push fit elements ensure quick and reliable maintenance
  • Externally Accessible Drain Valves - Unique easy access drain can be removed externally and is standard on all models
  • Color Coded Element End Caps - Easy and accurate grade identification
Standard Features:
  • Connection Sizes ranging from 1/8” to 3” NPT
  • Differential Pressure Indicators -
    • Pop-up Indicators on A*-0025 - A*-0050
    • Gauge Indicators on A*-0075 - A*-1500
  • Filter Drains -
