V200 Vapor Phase 4x8 Activated Carbon Drum Filter

V200 Vapor Phase Activated Carbon Drum Filter

The V200 Vapor Phase Activated Carbon Drum Filter comes pre-filled with 200 pounds of 4×8 mesh coconut shell granular activated carbon rated at 60 CTC. Designed for compatible air and vapor treatment applications, this lined steel drum provides a contained adsorption bed for reducing suitable volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and odor-causing organic vapors.

With a maximum listed airflow of 100 CFM, 2-inch inlet and outlet connections, and a compact drum footprint, the V200 can be incorporated into industrial ventilation, process vapor, and environmental remediation systems. Its pre-filled configuration eliminates the need to purchase and load loose carbon separately during initial setup.

Pre-Filled with 4×8 Mesh Coconut Shell Activated Carbon

Each V200 contains 200 pounds of coconut shell granular activated carbon selected for vapor-phase adsorption. As a compatible vapor stream passes through the bed, adsorbable compounds collect on the carbon's internal pore surfaces.

The 4×8 mesh designation identifies the carbon's granule size range. The 60 CTC designation is a laboratory adsorption activity rating used to characterize the media; it does not mean 60% removal efficiency or establish the capacity for every chemical. Actual performance depends on the target compounds, their concentrations, airflow, temperature, humidity, and required outlet quality.

Provide your contaminant profile when selecting the filter. Some gases and vapors require specialty media or additional treatment stages, so suitability should be confirmed for the specific application.

The 200-pound fill specification refers to the activated carbon, not the total assembled or shipping weight. Allow additional installation space for connections, handling, and change-outs. Maximum airflow and pressure are operating limits, not guarantees of treatment performance.

Compact Carbon Adsorber for Limited Installation Space

The V200 combines a 200-pound carbon bed with a drum measuring 23 1/2 inches across and 33 5/8 inches high. This configuration is useful for projects where equipment space and access for change-outs are limited.

The top inlet and lower outlet provide defined connection points for routing the vapor stream through the filter. Confirm the required flow direction, connection compatibility, and installation clearances before connecting the drum to your system.

Applications for Vapor-Phase Carbon Filtration

The V200 may be considered for the following uses when the supplied carbon and drum materials are compatible with the process stream:

• Industrial ventilation containing adsorbable organic vapors
• VOC and odor reduction in compatible process exhaust
• Environmental remediation vapor treatment
• Compatible tank and vessel vent treatment
• Vapor polishing within a larger treatment system

Selection should be based on the actual contaminants and treatment objective. For water or other liquid streams, choose equipment designed for liquid-phase service.

Selecting Airflow and Operating Conditions

The V200 has a maximum listed airflow of 100 CFM. The appropriate operating flow may be lower depending on the contaminants, inlet loading, and required removal performance. Airflow affects contact time within the carbon bed, so selecting a filter by maximum flow alone may not meet the project's treatment requirements.

Before ordering, review the following information with Activated Carbon Depot:

• Target chemicals and expected inlet concentrations
• Normal and peak airflow
• Required outlet concentration or treatment objective
• Vapor temperature and humidity
• Operating pressure and available blower capacity
• Presence of particles, droplets, or condensate
• Available installation space and connection requirements

Confirm expected pressure drop when selecting the blower or fan. The 10 PSI maximum listed pressure is not a pressure-drop specification and should not be used as the blower sizing requirement.

Installation and Carbon Bed Protection

Install the V200 according to the supplied equipment instructions and the confirmed requirements of your process. Check compatibility with the drum, liner, connections, and supplied carbon before operation.

Evaluate whether upstream particulate filtration or moisture separation is needed. Entrained solids and liquid carryover can interfere with the carbon bed and change flow resistance. Temperature and humidity also affect adsorption performance and should be considered during system selection.

Monitoring, Service Life, and Change-Outs

Carbon service life depends on the chemicals being treated and the amount entering the bed over time. The 200-pound fill provides a defined media quantity, but it does not establish a universal operating life or replacement interval.

Use an application-appropriate monitoring plan to track outlet performance and identify breakthrough before the treatment objective is exceeded. Pressure-drop monitoring can help identify changes in flow resistance, but it does not independently measure remaining adsorption capacity.

Plan change-outs according to monitored performance, contaminant loading, and site requirements. Contact Activated Carbon Depot to discuss replacement drum or media options. Handling and disposal of spent carbon depend on the substances collected during service.
