Frick Coalescer Installation guide

  • Hello, I've analyzed the Frick Coalescer Installation Bulletin containing the information for models 531B0104H11, 531B0104H13, and 531B0104H15. This document covers the proper installation, including the orientation and mounting torque needed for optimal performance. I'm ready to answer any specific questions you might have about using this coalescer element.
  • What is the correct orientation for the coalescing element during installation?
    What is the required mounting torque for the coalescing element?
    What happens if the element is not oriented correctly?
    What is the effect of incorrect drain position?
    Are these elements for all applications?
Installing the coalescing element
1. Orientate the 531B0104H_ Coalescing Ele-
ment with the DRAIN DOWN tag on the
bottom, at the 6 o’clock position, to ensure
the internal bridge is correctly oriented.
Failure to orient correctly may result in ow
bypassing the coalescing element.
2. The required mounting torque is 21 ft⋅lb.
Excessive torque may damage the element
and result in oil carryover.
