CompAir X085 11/2” Water Separator

Description CompAir X085 11/2” Water Separator

CompAir X085 11/2” Water Separator is a critically important component for any compressed air system. It effectively removes condensate—a hazardous mixture of oil and water that forms within the compressed air system. Environmental regulations strictly prohibit the discharge of untreated condensate into the sewage system. This device serves as the first and most crucial barrier for protecting your equipment from corrosion and ensuring environmentally responsible disposal.

Key Advantages of this Model

✅ Reliable Equipment Protection: It effectively removes condensate and liquid oil, protecting subsequent coalescing filters from liquid contamination and allowing them to operate more efficiently.

✅ High Separation Efficiency: Ensures the removal of bulk liquids such as condensate, water, and liquid oil from the airflow using directional and centrifugal separation.

✅ Low Operating Costs: Optimized to minimize pressure drop, which contributes to very low operational expenses.

✅ Wide Flow Range: Designed to operate in various flow conditions and can handle flow rates from 0.6 to 200 m³/min.

✅ Environmental and Financial Feasibility: Separating oil from condensate (which is 95% water) makes the disposal of purified water financially advantageous and helps avoid the high costs of disposing of untreated condensate, which is charged by volume.

Operating Principle of CompAir X Series Water Separators

X Series water separators operate on the principle of directional and centrifugal separation, which allows for the effective removal of condensate and liquid oil from the compressed air stream. Compressed air containing liquid contaminants enters the water separator, where the special design of the housing and internal elements creates a centrifugal force. This force throws heavier particles (condensate, liquid oil) against the walls of the device, where they collect and drain downwards, separating from the airflow. Thanks to this mechanism, bulk liquids are effectively removed, protecting subsequent system components, particularly coalescing filters, from liquid overload. This optimized design also allows for a reduced pressure drop, contributing to energy efficiency. X Series water separators are compatible with various types of compressors, including piston and rotary, and special additional options are available for cases with emulsified oils.
