The 500 Series Conventional Oil Separators are impingement screen-type conventional oil separators. In these units, the compressed mass flow enters a larger separator chamber, which lowers the velocity of the mass. The atomized oil droplets then collect on the impingement screen surface. As the oil droplets become larger, they fall to the bottom of the separator oil reservoir.
The 500 Series is designed for the OEM who needs oil separation and accessibility to the unit for filter changes.
The 600 Series is designed for the OEM who needs oil separation but does not require the accessibility of the 500 Series.
