Configured either as a vertical or horizontal vessel, filters work to remove solids and liquids (usually consisting of water, oil, compressor oil, and/or aerosols from the gas stream) to protect downstream equipment. Allows natural gas to be utilized for a particular application or undergo further processing.
Our in-house process and design engineering team combined with experienced sub-vendors allows Cimarron the flexibility to provide the solutions that customers require for their applications.
Typical accessories shipped loose for customer installation in the field can be provided. Cimarron can also provide fully functional skid packaging with instruments, controls, and piping in accordance with customer requirements, allowing the customer flexibility in transporting.
Our real-time monitoring system, Sytelink 360®, helps optimize equipment performance and predict failures while providing data-logging capability on the cloud.
We have a dedicated in-house service team with extensive dehydration commissioning, operating, and troubleshooting experience in most major basins. Rest assured that Cimarron will be available to support the product throughout its life.

A typical 2-stage vertical coalescer filter has two main compartments: filter section and sump section. In this configuration, the gas flows into to the lower sump section and impinges upon an inlet diverter, free liquids drop out to the bottom of the vessel and exit via the sump liquid outlet nozzle. The gas travels vertically through tube-sheet perforations up through the attached filter cartridges, then exits the elements into the upper chamber of the vessel, and out through the gas outlet nozzle. As the gas passes through the cartridge(s), liquids will coalesce on the cartridge and fall to the bottom of the filter section, then exit vessel through the filter section liquid outlet nozzle. Filter access to change out filter cartridges is provided via the full body closure as the top head.
A typical 2-stage horizontal filter separator has three main compartments: 1st stage section, 2nd stage mist extractor (wire mesh pad or vane type) section, and sump section. In this configuration, the gas flows into the filter section and impinges upon risers (filter pipe supports on the tube-sheet), free liquids will drop out to the bottom of the vessel filter section. As the gas passes through the cartridges up through the tube sheet, into the mist extractor section, it will coalesce on the outside of the cartridge and drop to the bottom of the vessel. The gas passes through the mist extractor section that further coalesces the liquids on the wire mesh or vanes prior to exiting the vessel through the gas outlet nozzle. The liquids flow down to the vertical sump sections of each stage, or a single vertical sump on the 2nd Stage. If a horizontal sump design, each stage has a downcomer pipe that passes the liquid to a horizontal partitioned sump. Liquid exits through the corresponding liquid out nozzles. Filter access to change out filter cartridges is provided via the full body closure as one of the side heads.
