What Is Air Compressor Filtration?

Compressed air leaving a compressor often has a high water content, as well as potentially some oil and other contaminants, including dust and particulates. This can impact the final quality of your compressed air and lead to equipment degradation. Depending on the application of the air, different filtration levels will be required, so it’s always beneficial to understand your exact needs. Don’t worry. If you’re not entirely sure, Aircare will be happy to lend a hand!

What Are The Benefits Of Filtering Compressed Air?

• Filtering compressed air enables a continuous flow of high-quality, clean compressed air that meets your industry and application requirements
• Eliminating moisture or other contaminants before they enter your air-operated or pneumatic tools helps prevent equipment and machinery degradation and breakdown – this helps extend operational life!
• By reducing the maintenance and downtime costs associated with contamination, you can ensure that your compressed air system and machinery operate at optimal productivity, efficiency and performance
• Ensuring your compressed air meets product quality and health and safety requirements, eliminating consumer risk and safeguarding your reputation

Condensate Management:

Another contaminant that should be filtered out of your system is condensate, a natural by-product of compressing air. Condensate is considered hazardous industrial waste, so strict legislation is in place to ensure it is removed safely and sustainably. This often means using condensate management units that include Zero-Loss Drains. At Aircare, we offer Beko’s industry-leading, reliable, technologically advanced drains that ensure safe and economic condensate removal.
