On the F20 particulate filter the letter J means 40 micron; on the F21 coalescing filter the same letter J means 0.01 micron coalescing. Match the element to the filter model stamped on your body, not to the letter alone. Parker also notes that the J element is offered only with the F21.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAvailability note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth elements are documented in Parker-Watts QIX catalog 0306 and the QIX instruction sheet, but neither appears in the current General Line or Prep-Air II catalogs, so treat them as legacy service parts with long lead times. The Honeywell-rebranded version of the coalescing element (EKF601J\/U) is listed as discontinued by Honeywell; the Parker part is still catalogued.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQIX filters, regulators and lubricators were specified on machine tools, packaging lines and plant air headers through the 1990s and 2000s, and plenty of them are still in service. Running the F20 particulate filter upstream of the F21 coalescing filter is the standard arrangement: the coarse element takes the pipe scale and bulk water so the expensive coalescing element only has to deal with oil aerosol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo clean manufacturer photograph is published for either element. Rather than show a photo of a different part, we have left this listing without an image.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AirComParts","offers":[{"title":"EKF20A, 40 micron particulate (F20 \/ B20 \/ B21)","offer_id":67782134038803,"sku":"S1811","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"EKF601J, 0.01 micron coalescing (F21)","offer_id":67782134071571,"sku":"S1812","price":181.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/aircompressorstore.com\/products\/parker-watts-qix-filter-element-kit-ekf20a-ekf601j","provider":"Warthog Air Compressor Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
