Air line filters work by straining air to trap solid particles and separate liquids from compressed air. To clarify the process, it helps to identify the main components found in an air compressor filter: Inlet: The air compressor intake or inlet is where air enters the filter. There is an internal cap that forces air downward into a spiral. It’s important to get the right size inlet rather than using a filter smaller than the line.
During operation, compressed air filters function under extremely arduous conditions:
(1)Pressure variations
(2)Pulsing air demand
(3)Temperature variations – day / night & summer / winter
(4)High / low humidity – from 100% saturated air to extremely low dewpoints
(5)Chemical attack – from oily acidic condensate and lubricant additives
Over time, these extreme and changing conditions can lead to a loss of effectiveness and reduced operational performance, even leading to product spoilage. To continue to perform in even the most challenging conditions, a reliable and durable filter is paramount.
One of the main reasons customers choose not to change filter elements is the cost of replacement parts and maintenance. However, the cost of insufficient filtration is often a multiple of the cost of a filter element!
Not changing the filter can seriously damage your compressed air system as well as your air accessories and downstream products. This results in reduced performance, higher costs, and risk of breakdown.
2.A good compressor air filter should posses the following eatures:
*Easy to install and remove
*High efficacy in contaminant removal
*Have a low-pressure drop
*Support a high flow rate
*Resistant to corrosion
*Meet the industrial quality requirements
*Long-lasting and reliable performance
*High dirt holding capacity
*Capable of withstanding high temperature and pressure
