Bowey Air Compressor Oil - Air Separation Filter Elements
The oil-air separator filter element is the core filter component in the screw air compressor system. It is mainly installed in the oil-air separator (oil separator tank). Its main function is to separate the lubricating oil in the compressed air, intercept solid impurities and condense moisture to ensure the quality of the compressed air.
To prevent the production equipment or the final product from being contaminated, you need high-quality air. That's why the oil content in the air leaving the compressor should be reduced to an absolute minimum! First-class oil-air separation guarantees a typical oil content of 2 ppm and an absolute maximum of 3 ppm. In the oil-air separator filter element, the oil mist is liquefied into droplets that gather at the bottom. From there, the oil is filtered and sent back to the compressor element. In the oil-air separator filter element, the oil mist is liquefied into droplets that gather at the bottom. From there, the oil is filtered and sent back to the compressor filter element.
Intercept oil mist: When the air compressor is running, the lubricating oil will form a tiny oil mist mixed into the compressed air. The separation filter element uses multi-layer fiber materials or polymer composite materials to efficiently capture oil mist particles.
Reduce oil content: High-quality filter elements can make the exhaust oil content≤3ppm (some high-end models ≤0.1ppm), which meets the ISO 8573-1 air quality standard.
Reduce lubricating oil loss: The separated oil droplets are returned to the air compressor oil circuit for recycling, saving lubricating oil costs.
2. Particle filtration - Protect equipment and extend life
Intercept solid impurities: filter dust, metal chips, pipe rust and other particles in compressed air (accuracy can reach 0.1~1μm).
Prevent equipment wear: prevent particles from entering pneumatic components, cylinders, valves, etc., reduce mechanical wear and failure rate.
3. Moisture interception - Anti-rust and anti-corrosion, ensure system stability
Coalesce moisture: Some filter elements have a coalescing function, which causes water vapor in the air to condense into liquid water and discharge it.
Prevent corrosion: reduce moisture corrosion on pipes, gas tanks, and tools, and extend the service life of equipment.
4. Energy saving and consumption reduction - Reduce pressure difference and reduce energy consumption
Filter elements with low resistance design can reduce the exhaust resistance of air compressors and reduce energy consumption by 5%~15%. Regularly replacing the filter element can avoid additional power loss caused by blockage.
5. Meet industry standards and ensure production compliance
Different industries have strict regulations on compressed air quality, and separation filters help meet the standards.
Regular replacement of high-quality filter elements is the key to ensuring production efficiency and cost control!
The purpose of oil-air separator filter elements = purification + energy saving + protection
Purify the air - remove oil, water, particles, and provide clean compressed air.
Energy saving and consumption reduction - reduce pressure difference, reduce lubricating oil and electricity waste.
Protect equipment - extend the life of air compressors, pneumatic tools and back-end equipment.
