The new and extensive OSC range from Atlas Copco uses
patented technology to separate all kinds of compressed air
condensate. The multi-stage separation process, using both
buoyant oleophilic filters and activated carbon, ensures excep-
tional performance, long and known filter lifetime and trouble
free operation.
1
No standing or stagnant water eliminates all potential
health risks and requires less regular cleaning.
2
The unit does not rely on gravitational separation and is
therefore insensitive to vibrations, shocks and splashes.
As such, performance is both better and more stable and
there is no requirement to use electronic “no loss” drains
up stream of the machine.
3
The discharge condensate contains so little residual oil,
that it can be drained away without damaging the environ-
ment or contravening strict pollution regulations.
4
The large capacity chambers reduce the risk that spillage
occurs if the unit becomes blocked, or if there is a sudden
increase in inlet flow.
5
The system is based on filtration rather than gravitational
forces and weir separation – meaning that oil density is
no longer a key factor.
6
No deration required for synthetic oil based condensates.
Meaning model selection is simplified and unit size is
reduced for low capital investment.
7
The advanced oleophilic filtration media used ensure
stable and reliable performance, extended activated
carbon lifetime and can eliminate all bacteria with an
optional treatment.
8
The simple but robust design enables easy installation
with no special set-up and fast, easy and clean filter
changeover.
9
The maintenance indicator accurately identifies when
the filter needs to be changed, eliminating the need for
special tests.
The key benefits of this are:
4
No oil collection bottle required, so no chance to
ruin previously separated condensate if system
malfunctions
4
Multiple oil condensate can be easily separated
4
Polyglycol condensate can be separated, although
some unit deration is necessary in order to main-
tain filter lifetime
4
Most condensate emulsions can be separated
