    The SF1 separator filter combines a high-performance filter with a cyclone separator that removes dirt, scale and condensate (entrained moisture) by means of centrifugal force and gravity. The SF1 can be used for both separator and filter applications. It is suitable for use in steam and air mains, and in applications calling for high-quality steam and air.
