What is compressor air filtration ?

Compressed air filtration is an elementary component for compressed air treatment and is present more than once in the treatment chain.

Compressed air filters remove all types of solid and liquid contaminants from the compressed air in stages, i.e. large amounts of condensate and coarse contamination particles such as rust, abrasion particles, oil droplets and dust are filtered in the first stages and then fine oil mist and fine dust particles are filtered in subsequent stages. Compressed air filters containing activated carbon also remove foul-smelling odors and oil vapor. Specific compressed air filters even remove viruses and germs and thus produce sterile compressed air.
