Two-in-one filtration with supreme energy savings
Our UD+ oil coalescing filters efficiently reduce oil aerosol, wet dust and water drops in your compressed air stream to protect your investment, equipment and processes. The UD+, combines two filtration steps (DD+ and PD+) into one, a unique technology to meet the high-quality requirements of diverse applications and provide ultimate energy savings.
Key Features
- 40% energy savings
A 40% lower pressure drop than the conventional line filter combination results in 40% higher energy efficiency thanks to our unique Nautilus filter technology.

- Save money
Install the UD+ to enjoy significant cost savings compared to conventional filters.
- Pure air
Air purity is equal to that obtained using two conventional filters in line, thanks to the design of UD+ filters and the media used.
- No risk of cracks in filter media
Nautilus filter technology runs no risk of cracks in the filter media because the filter media are wrapped around the filter.
DD and PD ensures optimal oil coalescing filtration
Our DD(+) and PD(+) oil coalescing filters efficiently reduce oil aerosol, wet dust and water drops in your compressed air stream to protect your investment, equipment and processes. These impurities could come from the lubrication of the compressor element, the intake air, and the compressor installation itself.
