CONSTRUCTION AND SEPARATION:

Corrosive resistant materials are used in the construction of the air/ oil separators. Careful welding procedures and the use of the latest twin pack adhesive ensure that the element has high mechanical strength and can endure operating temperature up to 120°C.
Normally, the air and oil mixture passes from the outside to the inside of the separator and the coalescing effect is carried out through a multi stage separation process resulting in the recovery of the oil and producing clean air.

At a nominal working pressure of 7 bar, the pressure drop on a new element varies between approximately 0.15 and 0.25 bar.
At other working pressures, the pressure drop is proportional to the air velocity across the separator By using our separators, the oil carryover after separation is limited to about 1 to 3 ppm. The life of the separator depends on many factors: the designs and regular maintenance of the compressor, clean environment, working temperature, quality of the air and oil filters. To ensure maximum separator efficiency, the jointsmust create a perfect seal. Experience has shown that through correct installation and also using the correct type of oil, Sotras separators can have a life expectancy of manythousands of hours.

The regular service on your products, using the original spare parts, allows you to get long life and better performances from vacuum pump.

The scheduled preventative maintenance of pumps with replacement of wear parts will prevent costly repairs and unscheduled shut-downs.

Flotech offers service kits with all required items.

Routine service kits and extra-ordinary service kits are available to allow you to maintain the pumps.

Our Service Center is at your disposal for any information and assistance that my be required.
