Compressed air filtration units.


[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED]

A new range of compressed air compressed air, air whose volume has been decreased by the application of pressure. Air is compressed by various devices, including the simple hand pump and the reciprocating, rotary, centrifugal, and axial-flow compressors.  filter units from Hi-line have been designed with economy and efficiency in mind, for the removal of oil, water, particulates and gaseous gas·e·ous

 aerosols from compressed air systems using a range of high performance filtration elements.

The die-cast filter housings are produced from high-grade aluminium with a special feature of both external and internal surfaces being AluChrome treated. In addition, they are also subject to a tough epoxy epoxy

Any of a class of thermosetting polymers, polyethers built up from monomers with an ether group that takes the form of a three-membered epoxide ring. The familiar two-part epoxy adhesives consist of a resin with epoxide rings at the ends of its molecules and a curing
 baked-on paint finish in 'compressed air blue'--RAL 5015. These treatments are designed to provide long-term protection, even when subject to the harshest operation conditions, ensuring a long service lifetime.

 can be fitted as required. The oil/water condensate condensate, matter in the form of a gas of atoms, molecules, or elementary particles that have been so chilled that their motion is virtually halted and as a consequence they lose their separate identities and merge into a single entity.  is removed via a highly efficient robust brass drain assembly with the built-in capability to attach a 6mm dia nylon condensate discharge line.

The filtration elements use patented pleated ill ter media which combines maximum efficiency with long service life and very low differential pressure drop. They are available in several grades to accommodate particle removal down to 5 micron or 3 microns in size, with oil removal at 0.5 micron or 0.01 micron levels. These elements provide impressive filtration efficiencies from 99.99% to 99.99999% with a further grade being specific to oil/aerosol removal down to 0.003mg/m utilising activated carbon technology.

Hi-line has used standard connection technology between their filter elements and housings, guaranteeing maximum ease of use and optimum inter-changeability. The threaded aluminium housings are available with port connection sizes from _1/2 inches to 4 inches BSP BSP

, offering flow rates from 42 to 3672Nm/h.

Filter housings with 1/2 inches BSP ports, supplied with any grade of filtration element can be supplied at less than 50 [pounds sterling] and ex-stock delivery, showing immediate savings over equivalent competitor products.
