High Efficiency Filter Elements
Replacement compressed-air filter elements for Tanair housings and compatible alternative elements for a wide range of established filter brands and references.
Replacement Filter Elements for Compressed-Air Systems
The range includes Tanair TAN-DFE / TAN-DE replacement elements alongside compatible alternative elements for many widely used compressed-air filter housings.
Because this is a very large catalogue, the product grid is paginated for faster loading. The Tanair TAN-DFE / TAN-DE range is shown first, followed by the remaining compatible alternatives in reference order.
Always identify the replacement from the existing housing make, model and element reference. Similar-looking elements can use different seals, media grades and dimensions.

TAN-DFE & TAN-DE Filter Elements
The Tanair range includes general-purpose, oil-removing and activated-carbon replacement elements for compatible Tanair filter housings.
GP · General Purpose
General compressed-air filtration for routine contamination control and protection of downstream equipment.
OR · Oil Removing
Finer filtration intended to reduce oil aerosol carryover within a correctly designed compressed-air treatment system.
AC · Activated Carbon
Final-stage activated-carbon treatment for applications requiring additional reduction of oil vapour after suitable upstream filtration.
Match the Housing
Use the housing model and current element reference rather than choosing an element from CFM or appearance alone.
Compatible Replacement Elements for Established Filter Brands
The wider catalogue contains Tanair alternative replacement elements corresponding to references used across brands including Atlas Copco, CompAir, BOGE, Domnick Hunter, Hankison, Hiross and other compressed-air filtration ranges.
How to Identify the Correct Filter Element
Housing Manufacturer
Start with the make shown on the complete filter housing.
Housing Model
Record the model or size reference from the filter body or identification label.
Existing Element Code
The old element reference is often the fastest route to the correct replacement.
Filtration Grade
Confirm the required grade. Elements with similar dimensions may provide very different filtration performance.
Blocked Elements Increase Pressure Drop
As filtration media becomes contaminated, resistance to airflow increases. Excessive pressure drop can reduce downstream pressure and cause the compressor to work harder to maintain the required system pressure.
- Maintain the intended filtration performance
- Reduce avoidable restriction through the filter housing
- Protect dryers, valves, tools and downstream machinery
- Help maintain reliable compressed-air quality
- Reduce the risk of unnecessary energy use caused by excessive pressure drop
How Often Should Filter Elements Be Changed?
The existing range guidance uses replacement at least annually as a general minimum starting point. More demanding applications, long running hours, high contamination loading or critical air-quality requirements may need shorter intervals.
Filter Element Replacement Checks
- Fully isolate and depressurise the compressed-air system before opening a filter housing
- Confirm the replacement element reference and filtration grade before fitting
- Inspect seals, O-rings and the inside of the housing
- Clean the housing as required without contaminating the new element
- Refit the bowl or housing correctly and check for leaks after repressurising
- Record the replacement date and next planned service interval
Cannot Find the Element Reference?
Compressed Air Systems UK can help identify replacement compressed-air filter elements from the existing housing or element details.
High Efficiency Filter Element FAQs
How do I identify the correct replacement element?
Use the filter housing manufacturer, housing model, current element reference and required filtration grade. Send photographs if the identification label is unclear.
Why are the Tanair TAN-DFE elements shown first?
They are the current Tanair replacement-element range and are grouped first to make matching Tanair filter housings quicker. The wider alternative catalogue follows afterwards.
What do GP, OR and AC mean?
GP denotes general-purpose filtration, OR denotes oil-removing filtration and AC denotes activated-carbon treatment.
Can I match a filter element by dimensions?
Dimensions can help, but should not be used alone. Similar-looking elements can have different seals, media construction and filtration grades.
How often should compressed-air filter elements be replaced?
Annual replacement is a useful general minimum guideline for many installations, but service conditions and the applicable manufacturer guidance may require shorter intervals.
Why does a blocked element cost energy?
A contaminated element can increase pressure drop. The compressor may then need to operate at a higher pressure to maintain the pressure required downstream.
Are the brand-reference elements OEM products?
Where a product is described as an alternative replacement element, it is a compatible alternative rather than an OEM-manufactured element unless the individual listing explicitly states otherwise.
Can Compressed Air Systems UK help identify an unknown element?
Yes. Call 0121 753 3330 or send the housing and element references together with clear photographs.
