The 1630-0003-29 is a genuine Atlas Copco inlet air filter element for the GHS VSD+ series of oil-injected screw vacuum pumps, covering the GHS 1300 VSD+, GHS 1600 VSD+, and GHS 1900 VSD+ models (including water-cooled, air-cooled, humid, and energy-recovery variants). It supersedes the earlier part number 1625000329, so units still listing 1625000329 on the nameplate use this same current-production filter. The element sits at the pump’s air intake, where it stops dust and particulate before it reaches the rotor and bearings — on an oil-injected screw pump, ingested particulate mixes into the oil circuit and accelerates wear on rotating components, making a properly seated, undamaged filter as important as the replacement interval itself.

How a Clogged Air Filter Actually Affects Your Compressor

Air filters don ‘t have a bypass valve —instead,as the filter media accumulates dust,airflow resistance increases gradually.This restriction forces the compressor to work harder to draw in the same volume of air,which can show up as reduced output pressure,higher energy consumption,or increased intake noise before the filter fully clogs.Some compressors have a restriction indicator or vacuum gauge on the intake line —if yours does,that reading is a more reliable trigger for replacement than a fixed calendar interval,since dust accumulation depends entirely on your operating environment, not time alone.

A Damaged Filter Is Riskier Than a Dirty One

A clogged filter reduces airflow gradually — a manageable,detectable problem.A torn filter element or one that isn ‘t properly seated in its housing is a different kind of risk:

dust bypasses the filter media entirely and is drawn straight into the compression chamber,where it acts as an abrasive against
the rotor and bearings.When installing a new filter,checking that the seal is fully seated matters as much as the replacement itself — a brand-new filter installed incorrectly offers less protection than a slightly worn one that ‘s properly fitted.

Common Questions

Without a gauge,the manufacturer ‘s recommended interval is your best default — but in dusty environments,visual inspection (checking for buildup)between scheduled changes is worth doing.

This depends on the filter media type — some are designed for cleaning,others are not and will lose filtration effectiveness if cleaned.Check your compressor ‘s manual before attempting to clean rather than replace.

Yes — restricted airflow forces the compressor to work harder for the same output,which can reduce efficiency and,in more severe cases,reduce achievable pressure.
