Parker P3NFA98DSM Coalescing Filter 1 Inch Port

Product Description

The PARKER P3NFA98DSM is a coalescing filter designed to remove liquid aerosols, water, and fine particulate contamination from compressed air and gas lines. Built around a 0.01 micron filtration rating, it captures submicron oil aerosols and moisture before they reach sensitive downstream equipment, instrumentation, or pneumatic controls. The unit features an aluminum bowl with a manual drain and an integrated sight glass for quick visual inspection of accumulated liquid levels. Rated to 250 psi maximum, it suits demanding industrial compressed air systems where contamination control is critical. Licensed HVAC and mechanical contractors, as well as industrial maintenance technicians, are the typical installers.

This coalescing filter is used in compressed air treatment trains in commercial and industrial facilities, typically installed downstream of a particulate pre-filter and upstream of regulators, dryers, or point-of-use equipment. The 1-inch port size suits medium-flow compressed air headers and branch lines. The P3NF series design makes this unit appropriate for applications where very low residual oil content is required, such as food processing, instrumentation air, spray finishing, and general pneumatic control systems. It is installed in-line with the airflow direction following the directional marking on the body.

Key Features

• 0.01 micron filtration rating removes submicron oil aerosols and fine particulate from compressed air
• Aluminum bowl construction resists corrosion and withstands up to 250 psi operating pressure
• Manual drain allows controlled removal of collected liquids without line shutdown
• Integrated sight glass provides visual indication of liquid accumulation level
• 1-inch port size suits medium-capacity compressed air headers and branch circuits
• P3NF series construction for consistent filtration performance in industrial environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style inline coalescing filter for compressed air treatment systems with 1-inch ported connections requiring 0.01 micron filtration and up to 250 psi operating pressure.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanical or industrial maintenance technician. Depressurize and lock out the compressed air line completely before removing or installing any filter element or bowl assembly. Verify that system operating pressure does not exceed the 250 psi maximum rating. Follow all applicable OSHA compressed air safety requirements and local mechanical codes during installation and service.
