1 - Description
Installing air filtration panels on the ventilation intakes (machine
and built-in dryer) guarantees protection of the compressor's
internal components and an increase in air sucked into the
compression assembly. This option is recommended if the forced
filtration option is installed (see § B).
2 - Option overview
The pre-filtration panels eliminate 90% of the particles normally
admitted inside the compressor and considerably decrease internal
contamination of the machine.
The high quality of the ventilation air is also essential for protecting
internal components of the compressor and, more specifically,
the motor and the air / air and air / oil exchangers. Clogging in the
exchangers creates an increase in temperature, deterioration of the
lubricant and the motor becomes overloaded thus increasing the
energy consumed.
The quality of the air drawn in by a compressor is essential. Low
quality air results in the following :
• Fast pollution of the oil thus an increase in oil change cycles.
• Increased pollution of the air and oil filtering components that
increases the deterioration of the mechanical components in the
compressor, screw block, ...

• Binding of the air / oil separator before 6000 Hours thus an
increase in maintenance cycles and maintenance costs.
Access to the filtering medium is allowed by removal that does
not require any particular tool. The panel frame can be unlocked
manually in order to clean the medium.
Exceptional longevity of the medium that is quick to take apart.
The medium can be scoured by blowing compressed air in thus
increasing the usage term for the filtering medium.
Galvanised steel covered frame.
Flammable medium (belonging to fire protection class M1) made
of polyester fibres.
Pleated medium on support grid placed downwards in the direction
of the airflow.
