Overview
The RTI 3C-060 filter element kit provides replacement cartridge elements for RTI Eliminizer-series coalescing filter units. This kit is engineered to remove water, oil, and particulate contaminants from compressed air systems at a rated flow of 60 SCFM. With 0.01 micron filtration efficiency and ISO Class 1 particulate/oil performance, the RTI 3C-060 maintains air purity critical to spray booths, automotive refinishing, pneumatic tools, and industrial air prep applications.
Key Features
- 60 SCFM Flow Rating – Matched to RTI Eliminizer housing design for rated capacity at 100 PSI
- 0.01 Micron Filtration – Removes fine particulates, water droplets, and oil aerosols; 99.99998% efficient
- Automatic Float Drain Option – Available variants include automatic or manual drain configurations
- Multiple Connection Sizes – Available in 1/4″, 3/8″, and 1/2″ NPT port sizes to match housing connection
- Bowl Material Options – Aluminum (200 PSIG rated) or polycarbonate (150 PSIG) bowls depending on variant
