The compressed air contains harmful solid, liquid and vaporous contaminants that can damage pneumatic equipment, control and instruments.
The removal of these contaminants is necessary to ensure equipment maintenance and keep the production operations efficient.
Compressed air is an essential energy source used in all industrial fields because it guarantees a high level of security and flexibility.
In order to offer comparative advantages, the compressed air must be cleaned of its impurities.
In compressed air, there are a lot of polluting agents such as: lube oil from the compressors, corrosive gas present in the atmosphere and due to pollution, water vapour, solid particles due to the decay of mechanical parts and distribution lines; solid particles present in the atmosphere and pumped by the compressor. Inside the compressor, these substances become acidic thanks to the high temperatures, creating a lot of problems to all pneumatic equipment.
The oil that entering in the pipeline, loses its lubricant features, and damages the equipment.
Separator body:
• the threaded part, in a protected position, of the head and the filter body ensure the easy replacement of the filter element
• the wide section of the flow channels ensures a limited loss of load
