Condensate Management

Oil Water Separators - Auto Drains - In-Line Separators

Condensate is an unavoidable result of air compression. It is a chemically aggressive fluid that mainly consists of water, but also contains oil and dirt particles.

Oil carryover is unavoidable if you have compressors that use oil in the compression chamber. The lubricant will mix with the condensation and create an oily water that must be properly handled to avoid violating environmental regulations.

Just one litre of used oil can contaminate up to one million litres of fresh water. This is the reason that environmental regulations strictly prohibit the discharge of oily wastes and chemicals, including the condensate drained from a compressed air system.

Compressed air condensate must therefore be treated in accordance with water resource legislation to achieve prescribed safety levels before it can be disposed of in the waste water system. Compressor condensate must therefore be either collected and treated by special processes or treated prior to disposal to the environment. An oil/water separator can be used here to remove the oil from the condensate. Since the condensate is approximately 95% water and 5% oil, water/oil separators have been developed to reduce or eliminate the amount of oil in the condensate.

EMD Series Auoto Drains <Click here for sizing table>

Electronic condensate drains EMD series is designed for fully automatic

discharging of condensate or any other non-aggressive fluid from compressed

air system. The units can be installed as external drain on any application specified.

Condensate accumulates in the collecting reservoir. When the level is high enough

condensate is being discharged from the system without any air losses.

Fluid level is detected by precise capacitive level sensor. Special self-cleaning direct

acting valve assures reliable operation. Electronic condensate drains - EMD series is

also equipped with operation alarm, led indicator, test button and internal strainer.

Version with Service Network for diagnostics parameter setting and alarm

output is also available.

ECD-B Series Auoto Drains <Click here for sizing table>

ECD-B series is designed for fully automatic discharging of condensate or

any other non-aggressive fluid from compressed air system.

The units can be installed as external drain on any application specified.

Condensate accumulates in the collecting reservoir and when the level is high

enough condensate is being discharged from the system without any air losses.

Fluid level is detected by precise capacitive level sensor. Special self-cleaning

direct acting valve assures reliable operating. ECD-B series is also equipped

with operation alarm, led indicator, test button and internal strainer. ECD-B series

can be used in variety of applications.

For applications not listed please contact us or your local distributor.

IED Series Auoto Drains <Click here for sizing table>

IED drain series is designed for fully automatic discharging of condensate

or any other non-aggressive fluid from compressed air system. The series i

s designed to discharge condensed water from filter housing primarily.

Condensate accumulates in the bottom of filter housing.

Fluid level is detected by precise capacitive level sensor. When the level is high

enough condensate is being discharged from the system without any air losses.

IED drain series is also equipped with led indicator and test button.

EMD-HP Series Auoto Drains <Click here for sizing table>

EMD HP series drain have been developed for fully automatic discharging of condensate or any other non-aggressive fluid from compressed air system.

The units can be installed as external drain on any application specified below. Condensate accumulates in the collecting reservoir and when the level is high enough condensate is being discharged from the system without any air losses. Fluid level is detected by precise capacitive level sensor.

EMD HP series is also equipped with operation alarm (version A), led indicator, test button and internal strainer. Version with Service Network (version C) for diagnostics and parameter setting is also available.

Working hours, valve operations and other operating parameters are stored in internal memory and can be read with Service Network reader.
