Greetings,
I sort of come and go in the airgun hobby, but I'm back again. I have an old F10 Shoebox compressor that's worked well, but also recently ordered a GX CS4-I that will be here this week. Back in 2017 I ordered a filter from someone who went by Dman, and it appears the main filter component is an Undersea 6300- https://undersea-centre.com/personal-filter-including-filt . The cartridge inside (long overdue to be replaced) is their 0520 unit- https://undersea-centre.com/replacement-filter-cartridge- . At the time, it must have been recommended to order these Coltri cartridges as replacements, and I have two of these still sealed- https://filtertechs.com/shop/air-filters/coltri-max-air-nuvair/air-purification-15-series/x156712/ They do appear to be quite different from the original 0502 cartridge, though maybe more oriented toward drying, which is our primary goal. Is the Coltri cartridge a better option than the original?
If I didn't have anything now, I'd probably go straight to Joe's Alpha filter. The main difference I think it the space below the cartridge in his, where maybe he's doing something to assist in removing water (centrifugal action, or some other filtering?). The Alpha also includes the pressurizing valve at the outlet to make sure there's pressure before airflow. The Undersea doesn't have any of that, but the pressure valve could certainly be added.
I fill mostly larger air tanks, so I'd like to keep as much moisture out as possible. Any advice appreciated, particularly about the Undersea filter, which I assume will be fairly uncommon.
Thanks,
Rusty
