In just one cubic metre of air, there are millions of particles potentially harmful to your machines and equipments. These are primarily made up dust, bacteria, viruses, smoke, fumes, hydrocarbons, water, oil and other contaminants derived from human and industrial activities. When this air is sucked into your compressor and compressed to 8 bar pressure, for instance, the concentration of particles will increase by eight times. This will make the air more troublesome by eightfold.
Troublesome in the sense that roughly 80% of these particles are so small that they will pass easily through your compressor’s intake filters and find their way to your process line to cause either frequent expensive downtime of your pneumatic machine or adversely affect the quality of your end products.
This is why it makes economical sense to incorporate compressed air treatment into your compressed air system as the benefits would outweigh the cost, which would probably be only a small fraction of your total business investment.
With this in mind, Advanced Air Compressors have ventured forth to supply a range of high quality filters, with essential parts being imported from renowned suppliers in Europe.
However, in the end, it is the highly efficient pleated filtration media that makes all the difference.
