Oil-free air is used in many industries where compressed air quality is essential, both for the production process and for its final product.
These applications include food and beverage production, pharmaceuticals (production and packaging), wastewater treatment, chemical and petrochemical processes, semiconductor and electronics production, the medical sector, automotive painting, textile production and many others where contaminating the air with even the smallest amount of oil can cause production stoppages, spoiled products and, as a result, unnecessary high costs. Some industries simply require Class 0 as standard (under ISO 8573-1, the standard for industrial compressed air quality).
01Benefits of oil-free compression technology
Lower cost of ownership
By using oil-free compressors you eliminate the possibility of oil, as a contaminant, ruining processes or products – and with it the costs of damaged products or machines. In that sense, Class 0 compressors are a good investment:
- No filters needed to remove oil residues
- Low maintenance costs
- No costs for treating oily condensate
- No extra electricity costs caused by pressure drop across filters
Eliminated risks
By choosing an oil-free compressor you choose a “zero rate” of risk, because oil-free air is 100% guaranteed:
- Zero risk of contamination
- Zero risk of damaging products or compromising their safety
- Zero risk of losses from sudden downtime
- Zero risk of ruining a hard-earned reputation
An environmental solution
Thanks to oil-free technology, you can protect the environment and operate in line with international environmental regulations.
