The air we breathe everyday is full of pollution. It has water vapor and suspended particles that we inhale into our lungs. The vast majority is not harmful, and we hardly notice that there, too. However, to your compressor these harmless contaminants can be very harmful due to compression. During compression, a compressor concentrates natural contaminants in the air, and this process makes Damage to your compressor and its components. Overtime, they begin to erode your components, valves, and are passed to your air tools. Let condensation. Water vapor is a normal part of the air we breathe, especially if you live in a humid climate. It is harmless under normal atmospheric pressure. However, if the pressure is raised in the process, the hot air through the hoses and fittings and contacts when it pushed the radiator> Air condensation.
Water can be very damaging to your air compressors and pneumatic tools over time and distance, it is a priority. Water is not the only liquid that can damage your system. Lubrication can also cause large amounts of air are present in your system. Older air compressors especially this problem. As they get older and parts to wear out are beginning to leak lubricating oils in the compressed air can damage the device. Do not forget to solids. Rust, dirt and metal are all present and attack your compressed air system. The results of reducing air pollution and the efficiency increased maintenance costs on the online compressor and air tools. There are several ways to attack these problems and protect your compressor.
Aftercooler
Coolers will cool the air, as it is from the dismissal > Compressor. As a general rule for every 20 degrees F is cooled and condensed, about half of the moisture. Cooler air to bring temperature to 200 to 400 degrees F within 20 -50 degrees, the temperature of the ambient air. This process leads to condense most of the moisture in the liquid state. Then the water can be removed from the system before they can cause damage. A cooler can typically remove about 60% of the moisture from the > Air.
Dryers
Dryers remove moisture from the air compressor system by reducing temperature. Remove dryer in general about 30% of moisture. This is removed in addition to the 60% of the aftercooler. This is why you see generally a cooler and dryer two hook up to a compressor to produce the driest air possible.
Coalescing Filters
Well, you remove most of the water vapor from your air> Compressor with an aftercooler / dryer combination, the leaves are still solid particles in your system. These are often rust, metal and dirt. Lets face it, is an auto shop is not the cleanest environment! Filters can be added to your shop compressor to remove these particles. Not condense water vapor and filters are only useful for solid particles. You are not a substitute for an aftercooler or dryer.
To the cleanest air possible from yourCompressor, I would recommend all three options in your shop air system. You will pay for itself, a longer life for your compressor, better performance and efficiency to your air tools and more air service life.
