When the sudden impact of the Covid-19 outbreak hit, many manufacturing companies found the need to reduce or even halt their production. The compressed air system’s that are extensively used in many production processes were also affected by this…

Take measured values seriously in case of partial load If a compressed air system is initially only partially utilised after shutdown, this poses a risk. It is possible that some components of the treatment system may not work properly because the volume…

Oil-water separator can overflow If the condensate remains in the oil-water separator for a longer period of time, slime and blockages will occur. When restarting, the solid oil layers impede the function to the point of overflowing and thus…

Fixed mechanics in steam traps In steam traps, the mechanics of the float traps can stick in the open or closed position. This leads to reduced performance or permanent discharge and thus to damage to other system components. It is advisable to replace…

Compressed air de-oiling suffers from moisture and lack of flow Furthermore, a plant shutdown may have an effect on the de-oiling of the compressed air with activated carbon adsorbers. If the activated carbon is saturated by condensation water, it cannot…
