K500

The Model K500 coalescer/separator element kit uses the same technology as the larger Turbo-TOC® K2100 coalescer element and K3100 separator element.   The K500 coalescer element uses micro fibers to begin the coalescing process, and ends with multiple macro fiber layers to finish the coalescing process.  These fibers are coupled with a hydrophobic water drainage layer to elevate water droplet separation.  In addition, the K500 coalescer is assembled with upstream and downstream support materials to maintain element integrity.  All of its coalescing layers are pleated to reduce oil flow velocity to boost water removal efficiency.  The K500 separator element uses a synthetic screen material to block coalesced water droplets, preventing the coalesced water droplets from passing downstream.  It also serves as a final particulate filter, utilizing the same filtration media material and construction method as the K4100 filtration element.
