OSD – a unique, high efficiency integrated package
The OSD is a complete condensate management system
intgrated into the GA compressor. The unique device removes the
oil from the discharged condensate, and with it the worries of
polluting the environment and contravening strict environmental
regulations.
The oil and water are separated through a process of de-emulsifi-
cation and gravitational separation. Condensate containing fine oil
droplets enter the coalescing filter which retains much of the oil.
The semi-processed mixture then enters the water tank, where,
due to the specific mass difference, the remaining oil separates
from the water. The oil rises and flows through the oil outlet and
into the oil can, whilst the clean water is discharged through a
pipe terminated at the edge of the machine.
Monitoring and maintenance is simplicity itself. When the inlet
pressure, which is clearly displayed on a gauge, reaches 2 bar,
the easy access screw-on filter cartridge needs to be replaced.
Typically this occurs once per year.
