SpinMeister® ST/CT Series: Extreme Duty Filtration
Centrifugal force from intake air causes particulate to separate from air stream, forcing it to the outer cover perimeter and out through the discharge port. The SpinMeister® Precleaner eliminates large objects from entering the air stream. The air stream then enters the particulate filter (optional) and is filtered by a 99+% efficient pleated element.
- SpinMeisters® available in polished aluminum

RST Series: Extreme Particulate Load - Reverse Pulse
The reverse pulse RST Series incorporates split second bursts of pressurized air to create a powerful shock wave that cleans the filter element and extends its service life. Quick pulses cause particulate sitting on the elements pleated surface area to release and collect in the drop out area of the filter housing. Pulses can be repeated as required and can occur during a running process because the split second air bursts have minimal effect on the process pressure. Operation can be manually controlled or automated based on user preference. (Optional pulse kit available.)

STS Series: Straight Through Liquid Separator
Inlet air with potentially harmful liquid and large particulate enters the housing and is separated by a baffle mechanism and directional air flow changes. The larger particles and liquid drop down and collect at the bottom of the separator. The float capsule within the separator screen rises with the liquid level until max capacity and limits the flow, thereby protecting the pump from damage.
- Minimize the likelihood of damage to vacuum valves and
pumps from liquid - Protect installed equipment from liquid contamination by
retrofitting STS separator - Easy visual inspection with see-through housing
- Reduce piping costs with T-style configuration
- Compact design for space restricted work areas

- Temp (continuous): min ‐15°F (‐26°C) max 220°F (104°C)
LRS Series: Right Angle Liquid Separator
The inlet air, with liquids and particulate that are potentially harmful to the vacuum pump, enters the highly efficient vacuum filter and is separated by an integrated baffle. The larger particles and liquid drop down to the large capacity lower chamber. The lower chamber has significant liquid/slurry holding capacity. The final stage has a replaceable filter element for particulate that is 99+% efficient before it reaches the vacuum pump.
- Multistage filtration & separation
- Protects pump from harmful liquids that break down
lubricating/sealing oil - Lower cost than individual separator and filter
