## Overview
TG elements are pleated-media cartridges for particulate removal in gas streams. Large surface area pleats deliver low initial dP and long life while protecting downstream equipment.

## How It Works
Gas flows outside-to-inside across tightly spaced pleats. The pleated surface area holds a growing particulate cake on the upstream side; as the cake forms it contributes to fine capture and stabilizes efficiency.

## Applications
- Dry gas transmission, processing and storage
- Compressor Suction/Discharge, Gas Gathering, Metering / Custody
- Transfer, Glycol and Amine Contactor protection
- Fuel Gas
- Utility & Instrument Air
- Dry gas streams containing trace methylene chloride (dichloromethane) vapor
- Removal of fine, rigid solids such as dust, rust, scale, sand, salts, coal fines and other particulates
