Air / oil coalescing filter
7 bar, 7 m³/min Mikropor

With over 3000 air/oil separator designs for compressors, Mikropor is one of the leading air/oil separator manufacturers in the world today.

The primary purpose of Mikropor air/oil separators in rotary screw and vane type air compressors is to separate oil from compressed air. Mikropor separators trap oil by allowing it to coalesce and drain down to a sump - while allowing compressed air to pass through. From the sump, oil will be removed by a scavenge line of some type and returned to the reservoir to be recompressed in a continuous cycle.

Mikropor separators are constructed of a depth loading media and have excellent oil removal capabilities that provide vital air/oil separation required in high-performing compressor systems. Mikropor separators have an oil removal rating of 1-2 ppm (parts per million) - so the oil loss in a compressor working with Mikropor air/oil separators is negligible.

Mikropor separators feature a unique Helix Tube Construction that provides added strength and collapse resistance.

In addition, some special Mikropor separators use fluted - not punched or perforated - steel. The flutes provide a diagonal air/oil flow and improve the coalescing performance of Mikropor separators over competitive products. This fluted steel design unique to Mikropor.
