External Filters and Separators
Becker Pumps Ausralia can supply you with external filters and separators to further protect our vacuum pumps and compressors from solids, liquids and other waste.
If you are looking for spare or replacement filters that are installed within your vacuum pump, compressors, blower or combined pump, please visit our download page to obtain the spare parts list to suit your pump.
EXTERNAL FILTERS FOR VACUUM PUMPS AND COMPRESSORS
Genuine Becker External Filters are recommended for your Becker vacuum pumps and compressors when you want that extra protection for your investment.
Every Becker vacuum pump and compressor is fitted with internal filters but some applications can benefit from having a further external filter within your pipeline.

Separators
CARBON DUST SEPARATORS
Separation Rate: Paper Filter 99.9% (4μ) and Fibreglass Paper Filter 99.985% (0.3μ) for clean-room applications (class 1000).
Application: Externally mounted waste and blast-air filter for oil free rotary vane vacuum pumps and compressors.
Benefits: Carbon dust particles prevented from entering ambient and blast air, easy to clean using compressed air.
Note: The flow rate shown on the PDF is the volumetric flow tested by the manufacturer, with defined filter specific flow resistance dp. The filter size selected must ensure that the rated flow rate is ≥ air requirement.
Liquid and Solid Filter Separators
Becker designs a number of liquid and solid filter separators that are specifically engineered to remove damaging liquids or particles from the inlet airstream. The Mini VLS separator is designed with a baffle, polyester inlet filter element, and ball-float shutoff valve that provides overflow protection for the pump. Available in carbon coated steel or stainless steel. Flow rated up to 42.5 m3/h. VLS separators are available in larger sizes for use with wet or dry product. Like the Mini VLS separator, these units include an inlet baffle, 5-micron polyester filter element, and ball-type shutoff. Ample ports are provided for optional level switches, sight glasses, differential gauges or switches, and drain valves. Available in exopy coated carbon steel or 304 stainless steel. Rated for operation to 0.001333224 mbar. Capacities range from 102 to 1410 m3/h. WDS separators have the highest holding capacity of all our separators. It is a two stage separator that uses direction changing baffling to remove most product, followed by a self-cleaning bag-type element that can filter down to 1 micron. A large clean-out port is provided for removal of solids. Rated for operation to 0.4 torr. Capacities range from 119 to 1274 m3/h.
MEDICAL BACTERIAL VACUUM FILTERS
In medical suction applications a medical bacterial vacuum filter is required. The medical bacterial vacuum filter is installed before the vacuum pump, receiver tank or Medical Suction System where it can completely remove existing bacteria and prevent contamination or potential biological infection to the vacuum pump, atmosphere and surrounding environment.
Becker Medical Bacterial Filters protect hospitals, day surgeries, veterinary clinics and laboratories from liquid, solid and bacterial contamination whether there is a single vacuum pumps installed up to a full Medical Suction System.
The suction systems found throughout hospitals in areas such as general wards, operating theatres, dental departments, pathology departments, pharmacy laboratories and mortuary/post mortem rooms are connected to a central suction system known as a Medical Suction System or Vacuum Plant. (Note: All Becker Medical Suction Systems are fitted with bacterial filters as standard).
Becker Medical Bacterial Filters fully comply to the Australian Standard AS 2986-2011 and all previous versions of the standard.
Features of the Becker Medical Bacterial Filters include:
- bacteria filtration rate 0.0001 %,
- ball valve,
- drain flask (250ml)
- – version FM…DP with pressure differential gauge
- – version FM…DPM with pressure differential gauge and integrated membrane for increased protection against contamination
The housings are made of three parts and due to an optimized construction offer low differential pressures at high suction capacities and are equipped with a drain flask. A multitude of various housings and connections allow to match the requirements of the application e.g. the pump size.
