Applications

Compressed Air Oil content monitoring is important and critical to many industries in applications such as:

Pharmaceutical Applications
Monitoring Compliance for Compressed Air Oil Content quality to ISO 8573.1-C

•  Fermentation: Healthy bacteria, no product contamination
•  Aeration: Higher quality products
•  Tablet production: Increased purity
•  Packaging and bottling: Lower rejection rate
•  Automated production lines: Reduced possibility of contamination

Pulp & Paper Applications

• Nothing less than 100% oil-free air will be acceptable in fine-grade paper manufacturing
• Paper mills use compressed air for instrumentation, paper machine operations, cleaning, and general plant air needs.

Petroleum Refining Applications

• Catalyst Regeneration
• Instrument Air
• Process Air

Petrochemical Applications
