A new condensate separator, introduced by Condensate Systems Ltd, puts environmental compliance within the financial reach of all compressor users. The Sepura range represents a radically new approach to separator design, from a company with many years
Housed in a distinctive blue polymer moulding, the few working parts of the new separator are extremely simple, non-mechanical and with the exception of filter changes, eliminate maintenance. Unlike in a weir-type separator, the design does not rely on the oil coming out of suspension, which is by no means guaranteed with modern lubricants. Neither does it require a settling tank, which frequently propagate harmful bacteria.
When the condensate enters the separator it is first depressurised safely in a primary filter, made from 50% recycled polypropylene. The bulk of the lubricant is adsorbed here, along with any particulates, before the filtrate is polished with an activated carbon filter. Three Sepura models, covering up to 1250m3/h/750 cfm compressor capacity, allow correct sizing to easily achieve 10ppm in the drain water.
The designers have put many years’ experience in oil filtration to achieve the separator’s uniquely small size and materials costs. A 12-month, 100% performance guarantee should also help to convince users that a clean, compliant system need not cost the earth.
