In areas such as the electronics industry and hospitals, the pharmaceutical industry, the food and beverage industry, the separation of waste oil vapor and odors from compressed air is required. The FES Oil Vapor Separator series has been developed for such applications .
• High oil holding capacity
• Easy cleaning and maintenance
• Complete sealing thanks to rings
• Low pressure drop
• Automatic drain on the entire range (alternative drain options)
• Temperature range min 4°C min., max 80°C
• Maximum working pressure 14 barg
• Grounded elements to minimize the risk of static electricity
• Separation of particles including condensate and oil down to 0.01 microns
• Reducing the amount of oil mist to 10 ppm
• Effective discharge of oil vapor with slow and effective separation at specified flow rates thanks to its large surface area.
Scope of application:
• Applications requiring oil-free air
• Safe backup separation to separate oil vapor smoke found in the discharge of oil-powered compressors
• Food processing plants
• Nailing / stapling machines
• Cement and paper processing plants
