High Performance Filtration from the
Gas Turbine Specialists
The CLARCOR Industrial Air filter business offers extremely high levels
of turbine protection in a wide range of environments with its selection of
inlet filters. Our 40 years of expertise in gas turbine intake filter design
has influenced the development of this water-resistant filter specifically
designed for onshore oil and gas applications. Developed to provide
extended availability of key gas turbine assets, its high dust-holding
capacity helps prolong filter life and significantly lowers operating costs.
The filter is designed for low pressure loss to enable increased power

caused by water leaching through and washing filter contaminants
and the need for unplanned maintenance
downstream. The altair LHX vCell provides best-in-class turbine protection
• Low pressure loss helps increase power output
against corrosives and enhanced protection against moisture with its unique

combination of hydrophobic properties and high efficiency protection.
• High dust-holding capacity helps extend filter life
and reduce costs
• Easily disposable by incineration
• Easy to install and change out to reduce
downtime
