Local environmental laws and regulations state that most of the oil contaminant must be removed
from the condensate before discharging in to the sewage system. Be sure to check your local
regulations to determine the necessary PPM allowed to be discharged
Type of lubricants can be separated with the PURO
The PURO was designed to separate mineral oil, semi and fully synthetic lubricants from
condensate. A stable emulsion formed from mineral oil or synthetic lubricants is typically not a
problem for the family of our oil-water separators. Special elements are available for poly-glycol applications, consult the factory.
How PURO works
Polypropylene attracts oil and captures it, almost as if it draws oil like a magnet. That simplicity
and our technology are at the root of the PUROs efficiency.
The PURO uses various filtration stages to achieve the lowest possible oil residue. The first stage
is an adsorption filter that utilizes a material that is treated and designed to adsorb oil, not water.
This material naturally floats on water. An indicator that can be seen from a distance demonstrates
the life left of this element and highlights the moment when the element requires to be changed.
The condensate flows through the filter and the oil is adsorbed. The filter will get heavier
according to the quantity of adsorbed oil and naturally sink to the bottom of the first tower.
An indicator demonstrates when this first tower filter element requires to be replaced.
Subsequent separation stages are completed with specially selected activated carbon to polish out
the remaining contaminants.
Why choose the PURO
No de-rating or over-sizing (no complicated sizing charts required) because the standard PURO
models handle virtually all types of compressor lubricants. In addition the PURO does not
incorporate/require a condensate settling tank.Any type of condensate drain can be applied.
The PURO footprint
The PURO outer dimensions are much smaller than other condensate cleaners in the marketplace,
because the PURO does not incorporate large condensate settling reservoirs.
The PURO GRAND can be retrofitted with an XTENDER, meaning as your customer grows his
compressed air system to a larger capacity, you can simply add the XTENDER to the GRAND. Two
models and an Xtender cover all capacities up to 2500 scfm (compressor capacity).
