Air Treatment
Maximising Air Quality & Equipment Efficiency
- What is air treatment?
- Why is air treatment important? How can it help to maximise air quality & equipment efficiency?
- What air treatment equipment do we offer at Aircare?
Air treatment is the process of purifying compressed air to ensure it meets industry and application quality standards. It involves removing anything that diminishes the air’s quality, including dust, particulates, oil, moisture, condensate, and any other contaminants.
Why Is Compressed Air Treatment Important?
- First off, is probably the most obvious reason – ensuring air quality! Certain industrial applications or processes will ensure 100%, clean oil-free air, but most, if not all, will require very high-quality, Class 0 compressed air. Air treatment equipment helps to remove any particulate or substance that is contaminating the quality of your compressed air.
- Ensuring air quality is integral to other areas of your processes, including reducing product spoilage and waste. Substandard products can have detrimental impacts on your reputation, costs, and efficiency and, in more extreme cases, can put consumers at risk. Therefore, air treatment and air quality are vital factors to consider.
- Substandard air can lead to rapid equipment degradation, which can lead to unplanned, costly downtime and hefty maintenance and repair costs. This is because the presence of contaminants, especially moisture, can cause irreparable internal damage to pneumatic tools and production line equipment. By decreasing the efficiency of these integral elements of your operations, you are placing yourself at risk of unproductive downtime and potential health and safety risks! Air treatment is essential here to prevent these scenarios!
So, What Compressed Air Treatment Equipment & Accessories Do We Offer At Aircare?
Air Compressor Dryers:
Dryers are integral for air treatment as they help remove moisture from compressed air aiding the delivery of high-quality air. We’re proud distributors of market-leading dryer technology from both Beko and CompAir, offering desiccant, refrigerated and membrane dryers.
Air Compressor Filtration:
Filtration is essential to remove any contaminants or particles from your compressed air stream, which is why we offer ranges from BEKO and CompAir which have been continually innovated and developed to offer optimal results. As market-leading technologies, these filters balance air quality, low lifetime costs and energy efficiency. We offer a range of filtration options to suit your application.
Condensate Management:
Condensate is a natural by-product of compressing air but can have detrimental impacts on the quality of your air and final products, as well as on the environment. Therefore, it must be collected or treated prior to disposal, using an oil/water separator to remove the oil from the condensate. We offer a range of solutions from BEKO as well as CompAir’s CSEP Oil/Water Separators and condensate drains which are reliable, efficient, and cost-effective solutions that ensure optimal air quality and safe condensate disposal.
Air Quality Monitoring:
When air quality is key for your production and applications, give yourself peace of mind by being able to identify any deviations from the required standard as quickly as possible. BEKO’s cutting edge METPOINT air quality monitoring systems offer the best in identifying fluctuations in air contamination. Aircare also offer Breathing Air Checks to ensure the safety of staff using compressed air.
From design and installation to system maintenance and monitoring, Aircare offer the complete compressed air package! Interested in any of our available compressed air treatment equipment?
