Compressed air can contain moisture, oil aerosols, particulates and other contaminants that can affect equipment, processes and the quality of the air at the point of use.
The right compressed air filtration helps remove these contaminants before the air reaches downstream equipment or applications.
At Nessco Pressure Systems, we supply and install compressed air filtration for workshops, manufacturing facilities and industrial compressed air systems across Perth and regional WA.
Choosing the right compressed air filters
Not every application requires the same level of filtration.
The right solution depends on your compressor, airflow, operating pressure, air treatment equipment and how you use the compressed air.
Depending on the application, a compressed air filtration system may include:
- Pre-filtration to remove larger solid particles and bulk contaminants
- Coalescing filtration to remove fine particles, oil aerosols and liquid contamination
- Absorption filtration for applications requiring further treatment of odours and oil vapour
- Point-of-use filtration and regulation where equipment requires specific air quality or pressure
NPS can assess your application and recommend filtration suited to the required air quality rather than simply adding filters to the system.
Infinity compressed air filtration
NPS supplies Infinity compressed air filtration through our sister company, Infinity Pipe Systems.
The Infinity industrial range includes pre-filters, coalescing filters and absorption filters for main compressed air lines, along with filter regulators and other air preparation equipment.
These products can form part of a complete air treatment system alongside dryers, condensate management and correctly designed compressed air pipework.
Filtration is part of the complete air treatment system
Filters perform an important role, but they are only one part of managing compressed air quality.
The compressor, dryer, filtration, drains and distribution system all influence the condition of the air reaching your equipment.
Correct filter sizing is also important. Airflow and operating pressure need to form part of filter selection to avoid unnecessary restriction and pressure loss.
Nessco Pressure Systems can help with filtration for new compressed air installations or assess the air treatment requirements of an existing system.
