Ingersoll Rand 47704439001 / 24242398 Coalescing Filter Element

Where It Excels in Industrial Use

• High-Efficiency Compressed-Air Filtration: The 24242398 is a high-efficiency coalescing filter element designed for the Ingersoll Rand FA1000IH inline filter housing. It is used to remove fine particles and oil aerosol from compressed air.
• Oil Aerosol Removal: The element is specified for oil-aerosol removal down to approximately 0.01 mg/m³, supporting cleaner compressed air for downstream equipment and processes.
• Fine Particle Control: The FA1000IH application is rated for filtration down to approximately 0.01 micron, making this element suitable for applications requiring high levels of compressed-air cleanliness.
• Industrial Air-Treatment Systems: The element is intended for use inside an FA1000IH housing and is suited to industrial compressed-air treatment where contamination control and stable pressure performance are important. 

Key Strengths at a Glance

• FA1000IH Compatibility: 24242398 is specifically identified as the replacement element for the FA1000IH filter housing.
• High-Efficiency Coalescing Media: The element captures fine oil aerosol and particulate contamination while allowing treated compressed air to continue downstream.
• 590 CFM Capacity: Available product information identifies the FA1000IH element application at approximately 590 CFM.
• Replacement O-Ring Included: The OEM listing indicates that the replacement element includes a housing O-ring, helping support proper sealing during element replacement. 

Technical FAQs

1. What is Ingersoll Rand 47704439001 / 24242398?

It is a high-efficiency coalescing filter element for the Ingersoll Rand FA1000IH inline compressed-air filter.

2. What housing does 24242398 fit?

The 24242398 is designed for the FA1000IH filter housing. The complete housing is identified as part number 24234106.

3. What is the filtration rating of 24242398?

Available product specifications identify approximately 0.01 micron particle filtration and approximately 0.01 mg/m³ oil-aerosol removal performance for the FA1000IH application.

4. What is the rated airflow for the FA1000IH element?

The FA1000IH application is rated at approximately 590 CFM.

5. What contaminants does a coalescing element remove?

A coalescing element is designed to capture fine liquid aerosols, particularly oil and moisture, while also removing fine particulate contamination from the compressed-air stream.

6. Why should the filter element be replaced when differential pressure increases?

As the filter loads with contamination, airflow resistance can increase. Replacing a loaded element helps restore efficient airflow and minimize unnecessary pressure loss across the filtration stage.

7. Does 24242398 include a housing O-ring?

The OEM product information states that the 24242398 replacement element includes a housing O-ring to support sealing during installation.

8. Should another filter be installed upstream of 24242398?

Yes. Available FA1000IH product information recommends preceding this high-efficiency element with a general-purpose filter element to provide upstream protection.

9. Is 24242398 the complete FA1000IH filter assembly?

No. It is the replacement filter element. The complete FA1000IH housing is identified separately as 24234106.

10. What should be verified before ordering 47704439001 / 24242398?

Confirm the existing filter housing model, compressor or compressed-air system configuration, part number, required filtration grade, and applicable maintenance documentation. For this element, particular attention should be paid to confirming the FA1000IH housing designation.
