Oil Separator Product Introduction

1. Overview

An Oil Separator is a critical filtration component designed to efficiently separate oil from compressed air, refrigerant, or gas streams in industrial and HVAC systems. It ensures oil-free air/gas output while recovering lubricant for reuse, protecting downstream equipment and improving system efficiency.

2. Key Features & Benefits

✔ Ultra-High Efficiency – Removes 99.9% of oil aerosols (meets ISO 8573-1 Class 0 standards).
✔ Low Pressure Drop – Optimized design minimizes energy consumption.
✔ Durable Construction – Stainless steel, fiberglass, or composite materials for long service life.
✔ Environmentally Friendly – Reduces oil waste and contamination risks.
✔ Easy Maintenance – Replaceable cartridge or centrifugal designs.

3. Types of Oil Separators

4. Working Principle

1. Inlet: Oil-mixed air/gas enters the separator.

2. Separation:

   • Coalescing: Oil droplets merge on filter media.

   • Centrifugal: Rotation forces oil to outer walls.

3. Drainage: Separated oil returns to the reservoir.

4. Outlet: Oil-free air/gas exits the system.

5. Applications

• Compressed Air Systems (Screw/piston compressors)

• Refrigeration & HVAC (Oil-refrigerant separation)

• CNG/LPG Stations (Gas purification)

• Industrial Pneumatics (Oil-free tool air supply)

6. Selection Guide

• Flow Capacity (CFM/Nm³/min): Match to compressor output.

• Operating Pressure (e.g., 8–16 bar standard, 25+ bar high-pressure).

• Oil Type Compatibility (Mineral, synthetic, PAG).

• Efficiency Class (ISO 8573-1 Class 0-3).

7. Maintenance & Replacement

Replacement Indicators:

• Oil carryover in air/gas stream

• Pressure drop increase (>0.3–0.5 bar)

• Exceeding 4,000–8,000 service hours
  Best Practices:

• Use OEM-compatible cores for optimal performance.

• Pair with pre-filters to extend separator life.
