Exterran Glycol Filter 16" OD x 4'11" LG YGT15-137

The Exterran Glycol Filter is a specialized vertical pressure vessel designed for filtering glycol in natural gas dehydration systems. This model, with a 16-inch outer diameter and 4 feet 11 inches length, is engineered to remove contaminants from triethylene glycol (TEG) or similar dehydrating agents, ensuring efficient moisture absorption and preventing hydrate formation in gas processing pipelines. Key features include a hinged quick-opening closure from Sypris Technologies' Tube Turns Division for easy access and maintenance, flanged connections for secure integration, and robust carbon steel construction certified to ASME standards. It operates effectively in harsh industrial environments, such as oil and gas fields, with advantages over similar filters including lower pressure drop, high contaminant holding capacity, and reliable performance in low-pressure applications up to 125 PSI. Benefits include extended glycol life, reduced operational downtime, and improved system efficiency, though drawbacks may involve periodic cleaning due to rust accumulation in used units and the need for compatible filter elements. This unit is ideal for upstream and midstream gas processing, offering cost-effective filtration compared to larger or more complex systems. Condition analysis from images shows it as used with internal rust and residue, suggesting it requires refurbishment for optimal use.
