Key Advantages of this Model

✅ High-Efficiency Purification: Effectively removes oil vapors and hydrocarbon odors based on the principle of adsorption. This ensures a maximum remaining oil content of less than 0.003 mg/m³ at 21°C, guaranteeing high-quality air.

✅ General Air Purification: Designed for the finest purification of compressed air. It is not intended for the removal of solid particles but specializes exclusively in the absorption of gaseous contaminants.

✅ Exceptional Performance and Durability: Welded-body filters are made from high-quality materials, rigorously tested, and engineered to ensure a long service life.

✅ Energy Efficiency: Optimized to reduce pressure drop, which contributes to very low operating costs and overall system energy efficiency.

✅ Ease of Use: Equipped with an automatic float drain, which allows for the continuous and easy removal of collected condensate, keeping the filter in operational condition.

Operating Principle of CompAir CF Series Compressed Air Filters (Grade D) (welded housing)

CompAir CF Series Grade D filters are designed for high-efficiency purification of compressed air. Their main function is the removal of oil vapors and hydrocarbon odors, which ensures the highest level of air purity, critical for sensitive processes. The body, manufactured using welding technology, provides high mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. The filtration process includes:

➡️ Air Inlet: Contaminated compressed air enters the filter. For the Grade D filter to operate effectively, the air must first be cleaned of solid particles and liquid aerosols using Grade C filters.

➡️ Filtration: Air passes through a special filter element filled with activated carbon granules. This process works on the principle of adsorption — the activated carbon attracts and absorbs gaseous oil vapors and odors present in the air. Thanks to this technology, the filter ensures a maximum remaining oil content of less than 0.003 mg/m³ at 21°C.

➡️ Condensate Drainage: The filter is equipped with an automatic float drain, which allows for the continuous and efficient removal of collected condensate, minimizing air loss and simplifying maintenance.

➡️ Clean Air Outlet: After passing through the filter element, the outlet air achieves unparalleled purity. This helps protect critical equipment such as dryers, valves, and tools from wear and failures caused by contaminants.

Important: The Grade D filter is designed for the removal of oil vapors and should be installed after the Grade C filters. This prevents premature contamination and wear of the filter element, ensuring maximum efficiency and longevity of the entire system.
