How to effectively use an activated carbon air filter?
Activated carbon air filters can be an important part of your compressed air purification system, but they must be used correctly. Make sure it uses enough carbon. Some filters claim to be activated carbon filters, but they use only a trace of carbon layer. These will not be effective because they become saturated immediately. A rough guideline is that a good activated carbon air filter uses carbon particles. Of course, not all carbon is created equal, and some may have more binding sites (and saturation capacity) than others. But, generally speaking, the more carbon is used, the more effective it can be because there will be more sorption sites to stick to. Air flow is vital. For maximum pollution removal, the air must spend as much time as possible passing through the carbon. In the air filter industry, this is known as “dwell time.” A filter with a good amount of carbon of sufficient thickness and high dwell time is going to be far more effective than a filter with a thin layer of carbon. Change your carbon filter. Once the carbon becomes saturated, it loses all effectiveness as an air filter. It is imperative that you change it out for a fresh carbon filter when this happens. The problem is that there is not a perfect method of knowing when carbon is saturated, aside from using an oil sensor. You can follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and change it on a regular basis, although this is just a rough estimate. The carbon becomes saturated depending on how heavily it is used and the amount of pollutants it is exposed to. Replacing carbon filters on a schedule of 6000 hours is a good starting point.

How does air water separator work?
Air enters the water separator inlet and flows into the separator module, the inlet of the separator module contains a set of fixed vanes which the air must pass through. In the vessel, the vanes spin the air, the spinning air is then forced to change direction as it passes through the impeller. Due to the design of the separator module, a vortex is created that narrows and intensifies as it reaches the lower part of the separator module.Liquid in bulk is removed from the airstream due to the following factors, airstream direction changes, velocity changes, vortex centrifugal action. As the vortex reaches the bottom of the module, air is forced through the center of the vortex. Aerospace turning vanes, located at the outlet of the separator module, turn an inefficient corner into more efficient corners. Turning vanes reduce turbulence, minimizing pressure loss and the cost of ownership.

Is there a difference between your air filters and those provided by other suppliers?
As we know that the air filters operating under 16bar are mostly made from aluminum alloy, and there are two methods of manufacturing air filter housings. One is injection, and the other is die casting.But not all die-casting products are well finished. This refers to the quality of the moulds, the die casting machine, and whether the aluminum alloy raw materials are original or recycled. While the air filter housings look the same, you could find significant differences in their air thickness, sound when knock ing them, air hole numbers, if easy to install and maintain . In addition, when you cut and open the filter elements, you will find these differences include the balance between pressure drop and filtration efficiency rate, the weight, the materials of the end caps, the Orings, the stainless steel support layer, and the glue applied to the end caps. As a leading manufacturer of high quality compressed air filters, we strictly control quality from these details. We contribute to supply reliable air filters that can help you to move forward.

How do I choose an air line filter for my compressor?
Here are two key considerations when sizing and selecting high efficiency air filters for compressed-air systems. Micron rating. Particle-removal filter elements are rated by the size of particles they trap. The smaller the micron rating, the smaller the particles it will capture.

What kind of air line filter for air compressor?
Usually in a compressed air system, a standard particulate in-line filter will remove dry particulate down to 5 micron in size. However, they will not remove oil mists. Oil-lubricated air compressors (such as rotary screw air compressors) will need an inline filter rated for both particulate and oil, such as a coalescing filter, activated carbon filters.
-
Is a coalescing air filter necessary on air compressor?
There is no doubt that the answer is yes. Air purification is essential for air compressors for several reasons.Using an air compressor filter will efficiently remove contaminations so that clean air could be applied, furthermore, extend pneumatic tools life significantly, saving operation costs for you.

What does a compressed air filter do?
A compressed air filter or air line filter is used to remove impurities from atmospheric air, like dust, oil and moisture, to make compressed air cleaned and applied in production and contact directly with products.
