Deltech CFD405, direct aftermarket replacement. Aftermarket replacement element for the Deltech CFD405, the grade CFD (activated carbon, oil vapour removal) element for size 405 Deltech compressed air line filters. It measures 98 mm (3-7/8 in) in diameter and 472 mm (18-9/16 in) high and is rated for about 841 scfm (1,350 Nm3/h) at 7 bar (100 psi).
This is the activated carbon element that adsorbs oil vapour and odours a coalescer cannot catch. It is fitted after an HFD element, which keeps liquid oil and water off the carbon, and is changed more often than the others. The DFD, PFD, HFD and CFD elements of size 405 share one housing size, so check the letters on the old element before ordering. Every element is checked against the part number before it ships, and every order is covered by our
30 day money back guarantee, worldwide delivery and
price beat guarantee.

Use cases & applications
Annual element change
Change DFD, PFD and HFD elements at least once a year, or sooner when the pressure drop across the filter reaches about 350 mbar (5 psi). Change CFD carbon elements at least every 6 months.
Oil free, odour free air
The CFD carbon stage removes oil vapour and odours for food and drink packaging, pharmaceutical, laboratory and breathing air pre-treatment lines.
Workshop and plant air
Line filters sit after the compressor, receiver or dryer to keep water, oil and dirt out of air tools, valves and cylinders.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a genuine Deltech CFD405?
No. It is an aftermarket compressed air filter element made to replace the Deltech CFD405. It is not made by or affiliated with Deltech or SPX, and the part number is used only to show what it replaces.
Will it fit my filter?
It replaces the element marked CFD405. Check the code printed on the old element, or measure it: this one is 98 mm (3-7/8 in) in diameter and 472 mm (18-9/16 in) high. The letters give the grade (DFD dry particulate, PFD general purpose, HFD high efficiency, CFD carbon) and the number is the size.
When should I change the element?
Change DFD, PFD and HFD elements at least once a year, or sooner when the pressure drop across the filter reaches about 350 mbar (5 psi). Change CFD carbon elements at least every 6 months.
Which grade do I need?
Use the same letters as the element you are taking out. A typical line runs PFD then HFD after the compressor, CFD after that when oil vapour and odour must be removed, and DFD after a desiccant dryer to stop dust.
Should I change anything else at the same time?
Change the other elements in the same line at the same service, fit new O-rings if the old ones are flattened or cracked, and check that the drain on the filter bowl works.
