altair® Panel Filters
Versatile and effective, altair's range of panels are designed to operate in the harshest conditions. Panels are generally used as part of a 2- or 3-stage system. They offer good filtration efficiency with low pressure loss, even at high velocity. They also reduce salt ingress to well below engine manufacturers' recommended limits. Unlike other panels, several of altair's panels can be cleaned to remove salt and hydrocarbon contamination in environments where this occurs. Other altair panels can be easily removed and replaced to minimize system downtime.
Panel Barrier Filters
The altair® PB1P, PB1P(50), 101NN, HE10, HE12 Panel Filters can be used in a wide variety of applications including air conditioning, general ventilation, machinery intakes, and engine room filtration systems.
GT2 Filter/Coalescer Panel
Versatile and effective, the Parker altair® GT2 filter / coalescer panel operates in the harshest conditions to protect turbines. It offers efficient filtration with low pressure loss, even at high velocity. It also reduces salt ingress to well below engine manufacturers’ recommended limits.
DSB8 Panel Filters
The altair® DSB8 panel filter can be used on its own or as a pre-filter in front of selected altair high efficiency filter pockets, including the HV2, HV3, HVL, and HVX.
altair® Systems
As one of the world's leading suppliers of air inlet filtration systems for marine gas turbines, Parker is at the forefront of engine salt protection technology. We work closely with our customers to gain an intimate understanding of their operating environments and conduct significant levels of research into the marine environment to develop and offer a range of world-class products expressly designed to protect turbines operating in marine locations.
altair® Neptune Filtration System
The altair® Neptune filtration system represents the most advanced engine inlet protection technology for the marine environment. Incorporating the familiar three-stage vane / coalescer / vane approach in a super compact unit, this system protects marine gas turbines around the world.
altair® Vega Filtration System
The altair® Vega filtration system has been protecting ship propulsion gas turbines around the world for nearly 40 years. The three-stage system delivers high levels of performance against sea spray, salt aerosols, particulate and green seas.
White Paper
Gas Turbine Air Intake Filtration Systems for Naval Applications
For gas turbine (GT) propelled surface vessels and marine warships, a reliable propulsion system is always critical to the vessel’s function.
Gas turbines ingest large amounts of ambient air as part of their combustion process. If left untreated it will retain airborne contaminants; all of which will do serious damage through erosion, corrosion and fouling of the highly-optimized GT internals. Harsh weather conditions, high levels of small airborne particulate in the form of sand, dust, airborne hydrocarbons and salt aerosols, and the concentration seasonality of these contaminants are just some of the challenges faced by a gas turbine air intake filtration system operating at sea.
Read the whitepaper to discover more about the challenges faced and key considerations when selecting the Gas Turbine air intake filtration system.
