When speaking of air compressors, compressed air treatment is a process that dehumidifies and cleans air before entering the compressor. Most commonly, this process involves air filters and an air dryer. An effective compressed air treatment system lowers the “dew point” of the air and takes out particles that may negatively harm the air compressor.
Explore the list below of different air treatment solutions. In-Line Filters: primarily to remove rust, scale, dirt, and other solid particles. Particulate filters are very versatile and can be used with either lubricated or non-lubricated compressors. Often used to filter before and after the air enters & exits the compressor. Dryer: Removes moisture from compressed air. Available in different types based on your application and needs. Air/Oil separator: A device in the compressor that separates oil from the air/oil mixture compressed in the air-end. Condensate Drains: Collect and discharge liquids from after-coolers, separators, receivers, dryers, filters, and drip legs.

Regardless of the type of compressor you have, vibration issues can be troubling for any business. The root of the vibration can stem from multiple sources, some internally and others externally. Understanding the cause of the vibration and how to resolve them will be critical in keeping your compressor in proper working order.
Regardless of whether or not it actually freezes where you live, most winterization service recommendations are also basic, solid maintenance procedures that will help extend the life and operational efficiencies of air compressors regardless of whether you live in northern Maine or South Florida.
Your company purchased an air dryer for your compressor. One of the most common things we see in the industry are air dryers being stored on top of the compressors. Seems like a wasted space not being used on top of the compressor, right? Wrong.
