HydroShield Brochure
Specifically designed to significantly reduce compressor fouling and water washes for gas turbines, HydroShield cartridges offer an outstanding combination of filtration efficiency, low cost of operation, and filter life.
The EPA E11 grade filtration of the HydroShield filter protects against corrosion, increases gas turbine availability and lowers operating expenditure. It helps prevent lost power due to compressor fouling, increases fuel efficiency and improves engine reliability. The accumulative effect is a reduced total cost of ownership resulting in operational peace of mind.
Prevents salt and water ingestion
Increases gas turbine availability
Long filter life
The site in question operated two 195 MW GE Frame 7FA gas turbines that were being operated in a power generation application. The units were in New York, next to several sources of air contamination, which resulted in a compressor efficiency decrease of approximately 3.9% over six months. AAF upgraded the existing F9 cartridges to HydroShield EPA E11. Find out exactly how this improved performance levels.
