Applications
The Eaton Coalescer/Separator is a two-stage vessel designed for separation of liquid in the form of a fine mist or fog from a gas or vapor. The coalescer/separator is primarily used in applications where fine mists are encountered in processes involving cooling or condensation, flashing or evaporation Some examples of applications are separating liquid, such as water or oil from: compressed refrigeration gases, evaporator overhead steam, compressed air prior to desiccant dryer beds, high pressure gas at injection wells, fuel gas lines to engines in power and industrial plants, natural gas and gas distribution lines or regulator stations.

Two-Stage Design
The operation of a Eaton Coalescer/Separator can be divided into two stages. In the first stage, the coalescer stage, the smaller fluid droplets enter a special wire mesh de-misting pad in the vessel. The purpose of this pad is to increase the size of the droplets as they pass through it so that they can be removed. The larger liquid droplets exit the demisting pad and enter the second separation stage. Here the droplets are centrifugally thrown to the outside wall by Eaton's unique CENPELLAR™ air flow element and flow to the bottom of the vessel for draining. The Vortex Containment Plate (VCP), exclusive to Eaton separators, prevents the droplets from being re-entrained after separation.

Easy Maintenance
The only maintenance required is the inspection, cleaning, or replacement of the de-misting pad. This is easily accomplished through either a quick opening body closure or body flanges.
