COMPRESSED AIR FILTERS
When running a compressed air system, the use of clean, dry air is a non-negotiable requirement of nearly every project. Filtering your compressed air system is vital to protecting the expensive investment in pneumatic equipment. Dirty, moisture-filled compressed air will shorten equipment life and ruin that costly finish you just applied.
The air compressor takes the air we breathe and squeezes it under pressure. When that happens, it takes the two gases of oxygen and hydrogen, and creates H20 (water) and also creates heat. Any dust in the air that gets thru the filter is passed right along in the piping system.
Depending on your process it is important to remove moisture, oils, and even odor before it is used by the equipment.

Moisture Separators
Designed for the removal of bulk liquid condensate, water and particulate from compressed air
The MS Series have no elements to change because the unique centrifugal and cyclonic action removes contaminants with a low pressure drop, providing maximum energy savings.
Moisture separators cannot remove oil from the air stream, other Alpha-Pure filters are designed for that application.
- 1/4” to 3” NPT pipe sizes
- Protected auto float drain (2mm orifice) is standard for optimal and reliable removal of liquid contaminants
- Body and housing are zero-porosity aluminum with a durable epoxy powder-coat finish
- Corrosion-resistant internal coating protects the filters and provides for a long service life
- Suitable for all types of compressors and compressor condensate
- Low maintenance
