Nowata C2C15N1CN Carbon Steel Filter Housing

The Nowata C2C15N1CN is a robust carbon steel filter housing designed for industrial filtration applications, particularly in the oil and gas sector. Manufactured by NMW, Inc. in 2006, this vertical vessel is built to handle low-pressure filtration tasks, such as removing contaminants from liquids or gases in pipelines, production facilities, or processing plants. It features a cylindrical design with a conical bottom for efficient drainage and a central rod that supports filter cartridges or elements, allowing for easy replacement via the top hatch. Key benefits include its durability in harsh environments, compliance with ASME standards (evidenced by National Board certification), and cost-effectiveness for small-scale operations. Compared to similar products like those from Parker or Eaton, the Nowata model offers simpler maintenance and lower initial costs, though it may require more frequent inspections due to its carbon steel construction, which is prone to corrosion if not properly coated or maintained. Drawbacks include potential rusting in humid conditions, as seen in the unit's current state, and limited pressure capacity compared to high-end stainless steel alternatives. Ideal for water, oil, or chemical filtration, it provides reliable performance with a maximum allowable working pressure of 150 PSI. This used unit shows signs of wear but remains functional for refurbishment or secondary markets.
