Oil vapor adsorber CT series

activated carbonfor compressed air

SÜMER CT series activated carbon adsorbers are perfect choice when it comes to delivering a continuous supply of high-quality compressed air. Any remaining oil-aerosols and oil vapors, including odors and tastes, are removed by the active surface area of the highly-porous activated carbon to produce high quality and clean compressed air. Installed downstream of compressed air drying and pre-filtration components, they attain Class 1 (no higher than 0.01 mg/m³) residual oil content as per ISO 8573-1 to ensure dependable protection of sensitive production processes. They are therefore, the perfect choice for applications in the optical, surface technology, electronics, foodstuffs and pharmaceutical sectors. SÜMER Carbon Towers are compact and designed to be free standing units and it does not need any maintenance. Pre-dried compressed air flows from top to bottom through a single vessel containing high-quality CarboTech activated carbon. Finally, the treated compressed air exits an after filter rated for solid particulates removal into the downstream compressed air network with an oil content of less than 0.003 mg/m3. Generously-dimensioned flow diameters, together with flow diffusers, ensure even flow distribution with an exceptionally low-pressure loss no higher than 0.1 bar. As a result, the compressor discharge pressure of upstream compressors, as well as the energy costs for compressed air production, can be kept as low as possible. The lifetime of the activated carbon filling can vary and is dependent on the contamination type, quantity, and the relative humidity of the supplied compressed air.
