Aircel Centrifugal Water Separator

25 SCFM - 16,500 SCFM, 1/4" NPT - 12" FLG Connections

High quality compressed air is essential to pneumatic and automation systems and correct air preparation minimizes component failure, increases the operating life of equipment and reduces energy consumption.

Water vapour occurs naturally in air and is present in the hot air discharged from air compressors. The hot air will then release condensate as it meets the colder surfaces of down stream equipment. Although the condensate can be removed via drains, liquid will remain in the air stream. This liquid condensate will break down lubricating oils, increasing friction between moving surfaces and corrode exposed metal components.

For compressed air installations where water contamination is a real problem, Aircel's Filtrations range of silicone free water separators can deal simply and effectively with the problem. Typically, water separators are installed downstream of after coolers and air receivers, refrigerant dryers and at strategic points in pipe work installations. The design utilises an internal spinner which removes large quantities of condensate by centrifugal action.

Water separators are available for operating pressures up to 16 barg (232 psig).

Aircel Water Separator DimensionsTechnical Notes

1. Water Separators are fitted with float operated automatic drain valves. DVAS16C on models A028 WS to A058 WS and DVAS16 on models A059 CWS to A340 WS . When high quantities of liquid are anticipated, we recommend the use of electronic drain valves. ½" manual drain valves are fitted to A391 WS to A800 WS, ¾" fitted to A1000 WS to A1200 WS as standard.

2. An additional ½" side entry port is included on models A391 WS to A800 WS, ¾" for A1000 WS and A1200 WS.

3. A connecting kit is required to connect a water separator to filter models A028 to A340.
