Filter element for coalescing duties
The Ingersoll-Rand F108IGE is a general-purpose compressed-air filter element rated at 1 micron. It uses Microglass media to trap oil and water aerosols from the air stream. The part suits maintenance teams who need a direct replacement for coalescing filtration in existing housings.
Thermals noise and power draw
As a passive filter cartridge the unit adds no electrical load and generates no audible noise. Pressure drop across the Microglass media is the only energy cost and it rises as the element loads with contaminant. No fan, motor or heater is involved so thermal output is zero.
Build quality and daily fit
The cartridge is built from Microglass material rated for continuous exposure to oil and water in compressed-air service. It fits housings that accept the F108IG part number and matches Grainger reference 3EME9. Installation is a simple element swap with no tools required beyond those used for the housing bowl.

Questions about this item
How is the F108IGE filter element installed and what step is often missed?
Remove the old element from the filter housing, seat the new Microglass element squarely, and torque the bowl to the housing specification — the step most often missed is replacing the bowl O-ring at the same time.
What maintenance or replacement will the 1 micron Microglass coalescing element need later?
The element must be replaced when the pressure drop across it reaches the housing indicator's change-out mark; Microglass media cannot be cleaned or back-flushed.
What limit appears first on the F108IGE during sustained use with oil and water aerosols?
The 1 micron coalescing media loads with captured oil and water aerosols, so differential pressure rises until the change-out indicator signals replacement.
