At PMJ International, we understand the importance of maintaining high-quality equipment in compressed air systems, which is why we offer a wide range of air compressor filters as part of our comprehensive compressed air system filter range. Our filters are specifically designed to remove contaminants such as vapours, air aerosols, and particulates from the compressed air supply, ensuring strict purity standards are met.
In addition to our range of filters, we also offer a full range of air compressors and compressed air system components from leading manufacturers such as Mann, Ingersoll Rand, and Boge. Order online or call our freephone parts hotline on 0800 677 1367 for assistance.
WHY ARE COMPRESSOR AIR FILTERS SO IMPORTANT?
Air compressor filters, also known as line filters, play a crucial role in the compressed air process by removing contaminants from the compressed air after the compression process. They come in various sizes, types and quality, but all serve the same purpose of ensuring a clean and pure compressed air supply.
HOW DO THEY WORK?
The process begins with compressed air passing through a mesh filter, which brings about a coalescence effect. This is when bigger particles are trapped in the filter and water is condensed into droplets. These droplets are then directed into a separation chamber where the compressed air is slowed to condense the water droplets. The water droplets then travel to the bottom of the drainage system and are discharged through an electric drain valve.
TYPES OF FILTERS
There are several types of compressed air filters available, each with specific specifications and sizes. These include:
COALESCING FILTERS
These filters are used to remove oil or moisture that is present in the form of tiny particles in the compressed air. Unlike other filters, coalescing filters do not trap contaminants. Instead, they filter materials and merge water and oil droplets to form larger drops that fall to the bottom of the filter.
PARTICULATE FILTERS
These filters are used to trap foreign particles and dust from the air. They remove particles and hold them captive in the filter material. Particulate filters are made with a large dust storage capacity to effectively remove contaminants.
At PMJ International, we pride ourselves on supplying high-quality compressor parts and filters from renowned manufacturers such as Mann, Ingersoll Rand, and Boge. We understand the importance of maintaining a clean and pure compressed air supply, and our range of air compressor filters is designed to help you achieve just that.
