4.4 Function description
4.4.1 Adsorption
With the CLEARPOINT
V activated carbon filter with cartridge, the flow through the filter element is from top
®
to bottom: The compressed gas enters from above through a small filter element that separates coarse particles.
Compressed gas flows from above into the inner area of the cartridge and from there through the cartridge into the
vessel. The activated carbon in the adsorption material adsorbs oil vapours and odours.
The cartridge service life depends among other things on the oil content of the compressed gas, since the adsorber
material can only absorb a limited volume of oil vapours and odours.
An oil indicator can be used to determine how charged the cartridge is with aerosols.
More detailed information can be found in the installation and operation manual for the oil indicator.
