Filters
Specifications
Capacities: 20 to 21,250 scfm
Pressures: up to 900 psig
Typically, ambient air harbors approximately 190 million particles of dirt, hydrocarbons, viruses, and bacteria per cubic foot. A significant portion of these impurities infiltrates the compressor and may persist in the compressed air produced. Without proper cleaning, these contaminants have the potential to harm pneumatic machinery and air tools, or potentially contaminate the final product.
Kaeser provides a comprehensive range of filters, including filtered separators, particulate filters, oil removal filters, extra fine oil removal filters, and vapor adsorbers.
Key features and benefits:
- Multi-layer, matrix-blended fiber media for dependable and efficient particle retention
- Effective operation even under low-flow conditions (down to 5% of rated flow capacity)
- Sealing of the filter element to the housing
- Sturdy, anti-corrosive housing with epoxy powder coating on both the interior and exterior
- Element supported by oil and acid-resistant stainless steel orifice tubes
- Optional features include internal and external drain traps, a differential pressure slide indicator, and an analog differential pressure gauge
- An additional option includes a microprocessor-controlled filter monitor with a differential pressure gauge.
Condensate Drains
Specifications
Model: Eco-Drain
Compressor Capacities: up to 5400 scfm
Kaeser’s Eco-Drain Series utilizes electronic condensate drain traps to effectively remove moisture from the compressed air system, making them well-suited for equipment like dryers and filters. The capacitance sensor technology guarantees the release of only condensate, preserving valuable compressed air.
Important features and advantages:
- Dependable condensate removal suitable for diverse industrial and commercial settings
- Wear-free capacitance level sensor
- Electronically controlled diaphragm valve releases condensate without affecting compressed air
- Patented valve technology safeguards internal components from contamination, even in challenging environments
- Straightforward installation and maintenance
Condensate Filtration
Specifications
Models: KCF 25 and KCF 400
Capacities: up to 1800 scfm
The Kaeser Condensate Filter (KCF) presents a convenient and cost-effective solution for managing contaminated compressor condensate in most small to midsize systems. The easily removable cartridge effectively separates oil from water, allowing the water to be safely discharged into any municipal drain. After 4-6 months of use, the cartridge is then sent for proper disposal using the provided disposal bag.
Important features and advantages:
- Compatibility with most standard lubricants
- Straightforward and reliable operation
- Fast and easy filter cartridge replacement
- Operation without the need for electricity
- Capability to connect multiple units for larger systems
- Option to connect multiple lines via an optional manifold
- Disposal bag included with each cartridge
Condensate Management
Condensate, a natural by-product of compressors, is an oil/water mixture that also incorporates particulates and hydrocarbons. This mixture becomes concentrated during the compression process. Both federal and local regulations restrict the discharge of such contaminated water into surface drains and municipal water systems. Managing and disposing of condensate in significant volumes can entail substantial expenses.
The Aquamat system effectively eliminates oil and contaminants from water, thereby reducing the volume of contaminated condensate and leading to substantial savings on disposal costs.
Key features and advantages:
- Achieves approximately 90% savings on disposal costs
- Rapid return on investment within a short period
- Includes a test kit for simplified water quality testing
- Level sensor indicates filter contamination levels, enabling planned filter changes
- Swift and straightforward filter replacements Accommodates multiple condensate inlet lines for up to four compressors
