Quincy QCF .01 Micron Coalescing Air Filter

Quincy QCF .01 Micron Coalescing Air Filter

Reliable, high-efficiency filtration for clean, dry, oil-free compressed air. The QCF removes fine solids, water, and oil aerosol, delivering ISO 8573-compliant air quality. It cuts contamination to 0.01 PPM by weight and is DOP-rated 99.999% efficient down to 0.01 micron, protecting dryers, piping, tools, and your end product.

Why it matters

Ambient air carries dust, hydrocarbons, and humidity. Once compressed, these impurities concentrate and mix with lubricants to form abrasive, corrosive emulsions that cause wear, pressure drop, and quality issues. Installing the QCF as a polishing stage stabilizes system performance, reduces maintenance, and helps you hit product specs with confidence.

Key features

• Ultra-fine efficiency: 99.999% @ 0.01 micron; 0.01 PPM residual oil content
• Low pressure loss: only 1.2 psi, preserving system efficiency
• Long-life elements: 8,000-hour service interval
• Rugged housing: 10-year aluminum warranty
• Fast serviceability: push-fit proprietary element; dead-stop head-to-bowl connection for safe closure
• Condensate control: auto float drain standard
• Status indication by size: QCF6–15 no indicator; QCF25–50 pop-up indicator; QCF70–1500 differential pressure gauge

Best-practice filtration

For dependable air quality and longer component life, use multi-stage filtration. Pair the QCF polishing coalescer after a general coalescer/particulate stage (and before point-of-use) to prevent saturation, minimize pressure drop, and extend element life. Relying on a single filter risks premature clogging, reduced air quality, and higher operating cost.

User benefits

• Better product quality: removes oil and dust aerosols that compromise finishes and processes
• Higher uptime & productivity: fewer contamination-related failures and rework
• Lower operating cost: reduced leakage, fewer repairs, longer equipment life
• Quick install & service: fits any compressor technology, retrofits easily, elements swap in minutes
• Smart maintenance: optional pressure-drop indication (indicator/gauge) signals when to change cartridges; plan on annual service under typical duty

Risks you avoid

• Distribution line damage and higher leak rates
• Escalating maintenance costs from contaminated valves, tools, and actuators
• Shortened equipment life and inconsistent machine performance
• Inferior final product quality and reliability issues across the production line
• Lost profitability from downtime, scrap, and energy waste

Bring your compressed air up to spec—and keep it there—with the Quincy QCF Polishing Coalescer: cleaner air, lower pressure drop, and proven efficiency that protects your entire air system.
