Hankison E3-20-05 Filter Element

The Hankison E3-20-05 Filter Element is a Grade 3 high-efficiency coalescing filter engineered for rigorous compressed air filtration. Designed to maintain a flow range of 3-20 SCFM, this element provides critical protection for downstream pneumatic components by removing 99.9999+% of solid particulates down to 0.01 micron. This part serves as a direct cross-reference for the HKN-0713-3 and is essential for achieving ISO 8573-1 Class 1 air quality standards in specialized industrial applications.

Constructed with dual-stage filtration technology, the first stage features a coated, closed-cell foam sleeve that serves as a pre-filter and flow dispenser. The second stage utilizes high-surface-area matrix blended fiber media to maximize coalescing performance while minimizing pressure drop. This specialized design ensures a maximum residual oil content of 0.0008 ppm w/w at 100?F, protecting precision instrumentation, control valves, and sensitive manufacturing processes from oil aerosol contamination and desiccant dust bypass.

• High-Efficiency Coalescing: Effectively eliminates ultra-fine oil aerosols and sub-micron particulates to protect sensitive HVACR controls.
• Direct Compatibility: Seamlessly replaces Hankison HKN-0713-3 and 0713-3 elements in existing filter housings.
• Optimal Airflow: Engineered for low resistance to flow, reducing energy consumption by preventing excessive pressure differentials.
• Durable Construction: Features stainless steel inner and outer cores with seam-welded durability to prevent element collapse under pressure.
• Contamination Prevention: Piston-type seals ensure a positive seal, preventing unfiltered bypass air from entering the system.

What is the micron rating for the E3-20-05?
This is a Grade 3 ultra-high efficiency element rated for 0.01 micron filtration, making it suitable for applications requiring oil-free air.

When should I replace this filter element?
For peak performance and system efficiency, it is recommended to replace the element when the pressure drop reaches 10 psid or at least every 12 months to avoid potential contaminant carryover.

Is this element compatible with synthetic oils?
Yes, the chemically resistant end caps and matrix fiber media are specifically designed to withstand modern synthetic and mineral lubricants.
