Separate oil from condensate
Just 1 litre of used oil can contaminate 1.000.000 litres of fresh water
Why should we clean the condensate?
- Taking care of environment
- Local directives/laws
We separate oil from the condensate which is coming from:
- compressor
- cyclone separator
- pressure vessel
- dryer
- filter
WHY AN OIL/WATER SEPARATOR IS REQUIRED?
Condensate is an unavoidable result of air compression. It is not chemically aggressive fluid that mainly consists of water, but also contains oil and dirt particles. Oil carryover is unavoidable if you have compressors that use oil in the compression chamber. The lubricant will mix with the condensed water and create an oil water mixture that must be properly handled to avoid violating enviromental regulations.

We have two advanced solutions for separating oil from condensate which are effective, simple, clean (especially WOSm), cost effective and high capacity (optional): WOSm and WOS
HOW DOES WOSm WORK?   | HOW DOES WOS WORK?  |
Just one litre of used oil can contaminate up to one million litres of fresh water. That is why environmental regulations strictly prohibit the discharge of oily wastes and chemicals, including the condensate drained from a compressed air system. |
 | Compressor condensate must therefore be either collected and treated by special processes of treated prior to disposal to the evironment. An oil/water separator can be used here to remove the oil from the condensate. Since the condensate is approximately 95% water and 5% oil, water/oil separators have been developed to eliminate the amount of oil in the condensate. |

 | Our oil/water separators are certified according to the DiBT (Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik) which is a German independent institute of the Federal and Laender Governments. This certification is mainly relevant for the German market and confirms performance of the separators with German law. |
