Atlas Copco, S.A.E. - Div. Compresores - Activated carbon filters

The tower of coal activated (QDT) is the last innovation of Atlas Copco in air treatment. This filter uses coal activated for adsorber the steam of oil of the air compressesed, giving as resulted a purity of the air of Class 1 (in accordance with the norm ISO 8573-1), and is designed for a long useful life.

The coal activated is essential to extract the steam of oil of the air compressesed and obtain a purity of Class 1. This level of reliability is indispensable for applications and industries where the purity of the air is a critical factor to protect the process of production and the quality of the final product. (For example, in applications that require special air for tools or instrumentation)

Reliable purity of the air

Are miscellaneous the resultant advantages of the specific combination of quantity and type of coal activated in the filter QDT of Atlas Copco.

With a maximum content of steam of oil of 0,003 mg/m3, the QDT adsorbe no only the mist and the aerosols of oil, but also the own steam of oil, guaranteeing a purity of the air of Class 1 according to the norm ISO 8573-1.

Second, the QDT has an useful life of 4000 hours, guaranteeed in conditions of reference of 35 °C* and with a maximum pollution of the air of 0,35 mg/m3 of oil in the entrance of the filter, compared with the filters of traditional cartridge. The lower temperature of entrance and the lower pollution by oil will prolong even more the useful life of the tower of coal activated.

Besides, the indicator of oil allows a maintenance proactivo since it signals when is saturated the filter QDT and has to be substituted. Joined to the simplicity of maintenance, this characteristic protects his process of production and his final product of the pollution by oil.

Finally, the QDT has designed , manufactured and tested in accordance with the ISO 12500-2, the official norm of reliability of the filters of air compressesed.

Conclusion

The QDT expands the range of filters Atlas Copco, allowing a solution of filtered for each class of purity of the air. Please, put in contact with his local representative of Atlas Copco and discover how Atlas Copco can improve the purity of the air compressesed and protect at the same time his process of production and the quality of his products.
