SPEEDAIRE 4ZK46 coalescing filter

The SPEEDAIRE 4ZK46 is a coalescing filter element rated at 0.01 micron for compressed air systems. It uses a sponge media construction to remove fine aerosols and particulates from the air stream. This standard-duty component is designed for industrial and automotive pneumatic applications requiring clean, dry air supply.

Compatibility with 4ZL series housings

The filter element fits Grainger part numbers 4ZL43, 4ZL44, 4ZL45 and 4ZL46 filter housings. It installs directly into these existing assemblies without requiring modifications to the air line. The lightweight element weighs 0.06 kg, adding minimal mass to the filter housing. Buyers needing a different micron rating or alternative media type cannot use this element.

Questions about this item

How often must the 0.01 micron coalescing element be replaced under continuous compressed-air use?

Service life depends on inlet air quality and flow rate; monitor pressure drop across the element and swap it when the differential reaches the housing manufacturer's recommended limit.

Does the microglass media add noticeable pressure drop or heat when the compressor runs all day?

The coalescing design creates a small, steady pressure differential; it does not generate heat itself, but the compressor will run warmer if the element becomes loaded with oil aerosol.

Which filter housings accept the SPEEDAIRE 4ZK46 element?

It fits Grainger part numbers 4ZL43, 4ZL44, 4ZL45 and 4ZL46; verify your housing model against that list before ordering.
