Howdy PB community!
I am looking for a series of inline filters for our oxygen supply into our PHE for knockout.
We're knocking out 37 BBLS of wort and hope to achieve 10ppm O2.
I know the flowrate needs to be fine-tuned, but we're happy with 1psi for our 30min knockout using a large surface area sintered stone.
I am worried about the quality of the oxygen from the O2 tank to the stone.
I am looking at the 3-stage filter set from McMaster Carr (http://www.mcmaster.com/#air-compressor-filters/=ni88lp) for particle, oil, and bacteria down to 0.01 microns. Now at $1,000 I am seriously hoping that this is exactly what is needed, but i wanted to ask if anybody out there is using this, or if not, what are you using, and what would be less expensive alternatives...?
I am planning to use a SS304 pneumatic plug on a Tee off of the sightglass that goes into the stone. I suppose I'll also use a non-return valve so there is no wort that backflows into the O2 hose line.
Any specific products that you could recommend would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
