How do I keep water from getting into my air compressor?
Do you need a water separator for air compressor?
How far should water separator be from compressor?
What is water trap for air compressor?

Through the adoption of an element that is exclusively used for removing
water droplets and the ample housing interior space, a 99%∗ water removal rate has been achieved.

Water separators are best used in conjunction with other air drying methods, such as using them before a refrigerated air dryer
to take the strain off and reach a lower pressure dew point. These devices are extremely low maintenance as they are self-cleaning, and they are fitted with an auto drain to the bowl, making them an effective and efficient method for removing water from your compressed air system.

Caution, water separators can remove water droplets, but it cannot remove moisture.

We only provide the best quality products, and that’s exactly what you’re getting from SMC.

How do I keep water from getting into my air compressor?

Desiccant Air Dryer Another common way to prevent moisture in air compressor units is with desiccant air dryers, which consist of tiny beads that absorb water from the incoming air. With a design and function that is similar to a water trap filter, the desiccant air dryer absorbs moisture from a compressed air system.

Do you need a water separator for air compressor?

With the condensate of the average air compressor containing approximately 300 parts per million (ppm) of oil, it is necessary to have an oil/water separator installed to keep your facility within EPA's stringent regulations.

How far should water separator be from compressor?

I usually recommend having about 25 to 30 feet or more between the compressor and the filter and have the pipe tilted so that the condensed water runs back to the compressor's tank where it can be drained periodically. This helps keep moisture from getting past your filter and into your paint work.

What is water trap for air compressor?

Water traps are simple devices that filter both moisture and debris from the air that passes through them. As your compressor runs, condensation is created which then cools and collects in your air tank.
