You soak inner section? This means you bring soak to filter exit. This soak will be blown out into filling hose and tank. Or do I missunderstand your post?
 
did you sell someone a pair of rebreather lungs to Queensland Australia about six years ago
I remember sending counter lungs before to someone in Australia. She didn't want to pay a lot for shipping. So it went by boat. A dispute was opened on PayPal, because hi found it long.

The buyer tried to steal me by mentioning that the package had not been received.

However, the tracking number and the photo of the box allowed us to confirm that the package was received and I was paid.

Are you the scammer?

you have some valve juster under the filter... who need to be open every x minute to remove water, oil....
 
There really shouldn't be any of that condensate inside the filter stack otherwise your interstage separators aren't functioning correctly.
 
No, there is no valve juster UNDER the filter. They both have a borehole that leads to the area BEFOR filter. Their job is to bring milk out of filter housing.

So if you bring soak to innner compartment (filter compartment) without a filter plugged in, you bring soak to the area after filter. This is clean air area, you don't want any polution in there.

Or do we missunderstand each other?

I do not agree. Both P21 compartments always have a certain amount of condensate. Also cartridge's outside has some condansate on it. This is perfectly OK, you don't have a sharp separation between the 2 compartments in the filter housing.

Therefor you have 2 valves, one draining the inner compartment (filter), one draining the outer compartment (condensation).
 
Sounds like a system which will have very poor filter life for a given amount of media and also require very frequent venting in operation.
My Bauer never has condensate anywhere near the filter.
 
Grantmac, do you have a Bauer P21 as well? Or are we talking about any different filter system?
 
It's a P1 but that doesn't matter. Any correctly designed and operated system should NOT have any liquid entering the filter.
 
P1 has a completely different desing. First filterhousing for condensate, then filterhousing for filter.

P21 has one single housing for both. You are rigth, liquid must not enter FILTER. In P21 it enters filter HOUSING, but not FILTER. A P21 filter housing is commonly full of liquid an all the housing's wall which is perfectly OK.
