PFP fibre pre-filters for dust up to 14 bar
The PFP fibre pre-filter has a pleated element of acrylic fibres and cellulose and traps solid particles and dust larger than 3 µm — solid particle class 6 according to ISO 8573-1. The housing is made of stainless steel 1.4404.
The PFP filter comes in 18 sizes (G 1/4" to DN200) with flows of 1,250 to 352,000 l/min at 7 bar; working pressure up to 14 bar, sizes from DN100 up to 10 bar. It is one of the stages of the PF filters — the housing is the same for all stages, only the element differs.
PFP filters by size
The size determines the connection and the flow. Each size has its own PF range spare element.

When to use it
The fibre pre-filter P is suitable where the air contains dust and finer contaminants that a stainless steel mesh lets through. The element only withstands +65 °C — for warmer air, there are meshes and sintered elements up to +150 °C.
The manufacturer does not state an oil class for it; oil aerosol is handled by the fine pre-filter M.
Where to place it
After the PFN5 basic filter or the PFI20 sintered pre-filter, before the PFR dust filter or the PFM fine pre-filter.
Flow by pressure
The catalogue flows apply to a pressure of 7 bar and a temperature of +20 °C. At a different pressure, they are multiplied by the correction factor: 1.88 at 14 bar.

Element, condensate drainage and maintenance
A PF range element is fitted in the housing — for example, the PFP-010V for the PFP-010. The same element also fits the HPFP-010, WFITP-010, WFIFP-010, WFIWP-010 and WHFITP-010. Flanged filters from DN100 have several elements — their number is given in the table for each size. Element working temperature +1.5 to +65 °C.
The filter is supplied with an element, without a condensate drain. For PF filters, the manufacturer offers the AOK20SS stainless steel float drain up to 20 bar and +65 °C. The drain outlet in the bottom has a G 1/4" thread, G 1" for the flanged sizes.
Replace the element at least once every 12 months. Once a year, also check the housing for visible damage.
Accessories for PFP filters
The same stage in other ranges
Stage P also comes in the HPFP filters up to 50 bar, WFITP filters up to 14 bar, WFIFP filters up to 14 bar, WFIWP filters up to 14 bar and WHFITP filters up to 50 bar. The elements are the same for all ranges.
Ventilek’s tip
Fibres only up to +65 °C. The fibre element P is suitable for cooler air. For warmer air, choose the N5 mesh or a sintered pre-filter — they withstand +150 °C.
