0.01 micron coalescing filter element
The Ingersoll/Rand 24242166 is a replacement filter element rated at .01 micron for coalescing applications. It uses Microglass media to remove oil and water aerosols from compressed air lines. This part suits maintenance teams servicing Ingersoll-Rand compressed air systems that require fine filtration. It is not for buyers needing a complete filter housing or a different micron rating.
Microglass media captures sub-micron aerosols
The coalescing design targets liquid oil and water droplets down to the stated .01 micron rating using Microglass fibres. It does not remove dry particulate or vapour contaminants beyond that scope. The element fits systems specifying compatible part number 24233702. It is not for installations requiring activated carbon stages or higher flow capacities than the original housing allows.
Direct swap for OEM housing
Installation consists of opening the existing filter housing and exchanging the used element for this new unit. No tools beyond those needed for the housing bowl are typically required. The main risk is cross-threading the bowl or damaging the seal during reassembly, which causes bypass leaks. It is not for users who lack the correct housing model or who need to modify pipework to fit.

Questions about this item
How do I know the .01 micron Microglass element matches my compressor?
Match the compatible manufacturer part number 24233702 to your unit's service manual; the element is built for oil, water and air filtration.
What does the .01 micron rating deliver in daily operation?
The coalescing media captures sub-micron oil aerosols and water droplets, supplying cleaner compressed air to downstream tools and piping.
What connection standard does the 24242166 filter use and what flow limit applies?
The element installs into housings designed for part 24233702; flow capacity is set by that housing, not by the filter media itself.
