Air-Oil Separators
High-efficiency air/oil separators engineered for superior oil removal and dependable compressor performance.
The air-oil separator is one of the most critical components in a rotary screw compressor. After compression, it pulls oil back out of the air stream so the delivered air meets its purity target and oil consumption stays where it belongs.
A separator that is worn, blocked or simply the wrong specification quietly costs money. Oil carry-over rises, pressure drop climbs, and the compressor works harder to hold the same outlet pressure, so energy use goes up and downstream equipment is put at risk. Replacing the separator on schedule, with a correctly matched element, is one of the cheapest ways to protect a compressed air system.
What a quality separator delivers
Residual oil aerosol typically reduced to 2–3 ppm, protecting air quality and downstream lines.
Clean installed differential pressure in the region of 0.14–0.20 bar, so the airend isn't fighting the filter.
Borosilicate microglass media engineered to resist collapse under high differential pressure.
Separator designs we supply
Conventional wrap
The economical, proven design: microglass media wrapped around a support tube. Correctly sized to the compressor's flow and pressure, it gives dependable separation with a low clean pressure drop.
Depth wrap
Popular on European compressors. Additional layers of multi-grade media handle a higher oil challenge rate, for demanding or high-temperature duty where standard wraps struggle.
Pleated
Pleated media multiplies the effective coalescing area and airflow capacity, useful where space is tight relative to the flow required.
Spin-on
The element sits in a pressure-rated canister, like an oil filter. Quick to change and ideal for compact cabinets with limited service access.
