P355 | Drip Pot
BelGAS CP
The BelGAS CP P355 Drip Pot removes moisture from gas or air before it reaches downstream equipment where dry media is required. Instrument supply lines, control systems, and process equipment are all vulnerable to the effects of entrained moisture, and the P355 provides a simple, passive solution that protects them without adding complexity to the system.
Incoming wet gas enters through the supply port and passes through a stratified flow regime inside the vessel. Gravity pulls liquid contaminants and wet material to the bottom of the pot while clean, dry gas exits through the outlet. No moving parts, no power source, and no operator input required during normal operation.
The P355 is available in 300, 2000, and 6000 PSIG pressure ratings with 1/4" NPT connections and a choice of fluorocarbon or HSN elastomers. All units are built to NACE MR0175 requirements and include a mounting bracket as standard, making the P355 a direct fit for sour gas environments and a reliable component in BelGAS CP control valve packages.

PERFORMANCE ADVANTAGES
Why the BelGAS CP P355 Performs Where It Counts
RELIABLE MOISTURE SEPARATION
The drip pot slows the gas stream so entrained liquid and condensate drop out before reaching downstream equipment. Heavier moisture collects in the chamber below the flow path rather than carrying through the line. This delivers a consistently dry supply even under wet or fluctuating inlet conditions.
PROTECTS DOWNSTREAM INSTRUMENTS
Removing moisture upstream keeps regulators, pilots, and control valves supplied with clean, dry gas. This prevents the fouling, freezing, and erratic operation caused by liquid slugs reaching sensitive trim. Instruments run more predictably and need less frequent field correction over their service life.
SIMPLE FIELD DRAINING
Collected liquid clears through a manual drain at the base of the pot without interrupting flow. Routine blowdown removes accumulated moisture and solids in seconds during normal service. The straightforward design keeps maintenance fast and reduces downtime across remote production sites.
BROAD APPLICATION COMPATIBILITY
The P355 suits fuel gas, instrument gas, and air systems that require a consistently dry supply. It installs ahead of separators, regulators, and metering equipment throughout upstream operations. Durable construction handles the pressures and corrosive conditions common in oil and gas service.
