What kind of filter is used in an oil mist collector?
A. The most effective filter for an oil mist collector is a Kimre 13-layer polypropylene mesh filter media, which is standard with the OM/1. It withstands 180 degrees, is chemically inert, and won’t degrade from exposure to jagged fines and other contaminants. Maintaining the stage 1 filter allows the 2nd stage “workhorse” filter to perform at extremely high efficiencies, for long periods of time.
