Inverted Housings

In many sample conditioning applications, space is limited, and maintenance is extremely critical for proper protection. Our inverted (IV) housings address both these issues by putting all line connections in the “head” of the unit. This allows for all the tubing to be placed in one plane within the panel, and makes maintenance (element service) easy since no lines need to be removed to replace the element. The inlet, outlet and drain ports are all in the head module, with the drain port being at the lowest point within the module to evacuate liquids quickly and eliminate entrainment. The element is kept in the correct vertical position to allow proper liquid drainage. Other head ported drain assemblies typically are horizontally mounted which does not drain as quickly and can lead to high downstream carry- over.

Pictured to the right are the inverted 127G and the GMS170 which also incorporates a membrane separator.

Inverted housings may be ordered with (example IV112) or without (example IV116) a bowl drain connection. The traditional drain bowl connection can be used as a vent or gauge port.
