Compressed Air/Compressors

The new Clearpoint compressed-air heater

Clearpoint HeizerExpansion coldness results from quickly-expanding compressed air. This can lead to icing of valves and controllers, impairing the process reliability and profitability of compressed-air plants.

With the new Clearpoint compressed-air heater, the temperature of the leaving compressed-air can be adjusted between 30

With new technologies towards absolutely oil-free compressed air

the Bekokat systemUntil now, absolutely oil-free compressed air for sensitive applications could only be produced using relatively costly, often interconnected compressor- and filter-based technology. In many cases not entirely reliably. Now a newly developed and effective catalysis method and an extremely reliable residual-oil monitoring system point the way to the future of permanent high-quality compressed-air processing and monitoring.

In numerous fields of application, class 1 compressed air which, according to DIN ISO 8573-1, is technically oil-free, is far from clean enough. In accordance with this guide-value classification, the maximum oil content (including oil vapour) must not exceed 0.01 mg/m

Compressed air users, buying

pneudriAs part of the government Enhanced Capital Allowance ( ECA ) scheme, Parker domnick hunter energy saving compressed air drying products complete with Dewpoint Dependent Switching (DDS) have been added to the Energy Technology List ( ETL ) with effect from December 1st, 2008.

The ECA scheme for Energy Saving Technologies is a straightforward way for a business to improve its cash flow through accelerated tax relief, by encouraging investment in energysaving plant or machinery specified in the ETL which is managed by the Carbon Trust on behalf of the Government.

Richard Spires, General Manager of BEKO Technologies Ltd outlines his thoughts on Oil-free compresse

Richard SpiresOne of the big challenges in the current compressed air market is how to monitor stringent new guidelines on compressed air quality. With the launch of OILCONTROL, BEKO TECHNOLOGIES have a powerful new tool which can aid the end user to check the quality of his compressed air.

BEKO  have many years experience in manufacturing solutions for clean and dry compressed air; they sell dryers in membrane, adsorption and refrigeration formats and are highly respected the world over.

Boge serves up energy savings to catering equipment manufacturer

Boge Installation As part of a company wide energy drive, Victor Manufacturing has realised 48% energy savings per annum on their compressed air related energy costs by installing an energy efficient Boge SLF40 frequency controlled screw compressor.

 Victor Manufacturing is a leading commercial catering equipment manufacturer. At their manufacturing site in Bradford an extensive range of food service equipment is manufactured which is used by all kinds of organisations such as hotels, restaurants, hospitals and universities to move, store and serve hot and cold foods. 

With Owamat 11, BEKO Technologies have extended its range of new generation Oil Water separators.

Owamat 11Owamat11 can be used on compressors up to 230 m3/hr capacity- around double that of the existing Owamat 10, which remains in the line-up. The new model offers a cost effective solution for condensate treatment in one of the most popular compressor size ranges.Owamat 11 is structurally similar to the highly regarded Owamat 10, with the additional feature of a filter warning indicator. It is also possible to fit a heating system to this new model, as with all its larger stable mates.

Owamat is an oil-water separation system for dispersed condensates which has become a market leader and has recently enjoyed a complete re-engineering.

1.5 Million Condensate Drains Sold

BEKOMAT 1.5The principle that revolutionised compressed-air processing.  Now, this technology is standard worldwide. With a total of 1.5 million of units sold since its presentation in 1982, the electronically level-controlled BEKOMAT condensate drain has now reached a further international record.

Developed more than 25 years ago by BEKO Technologies GmbH, Neuss, the compressed-air specialist and system provider, BEKOMAT is regarded as the most effective, efficient, process-reliable and profitable condensate drain around. With the record of 1.5 million sold systems now reached, BEKOMAT from BEKO also proves to be the consistently most successful system of its type for original and retrofit equipment. The BEKOMAT series cracked the sales record of one million only just under three years ago.
