Why oil-free? / Eliminating risk / Eliminating risk
Eliminating risk
We developed our oil-free screw and tooth compressors especially
for applications demanding the highest levels of purity. Whether
your activities are in pharmaceutical production, food processing,
critical electronics
or in a similarly exacting industry, zero oil means zero risk.
Zero
risk of contamination. Zero risk of damaged or unsafe products,
or of losses due to operational downtime. Above all, zero oil
means zero risk of ruining your hard-earned reputation.
Can oil-injected
compressors with oil removal filters deliver oil-free air?
This solution is often referred to as “technically oil-free air”.
However, even under optimum conditions and with several stages
of oil removal, the air quality with regard to oil is suspect.
To
achieve even barely acceptable air quality with oil-injected
compressors, it is necessary to have air cooling devices and
several stages of oil removal with multiple components. A failure
of any of these components
or inadequate maintenance can result in oil contamination of
a process.
With oil-injected compressors there will always be
a risk of contamination and the possibility of severe consequences
for the business.
