    Oceanus 5.1.6 Cartridge Operating Life Every Bauer Purification System is designed to process a certain volume of air before the cartridges require replacement. By using special test equipment that measures the quality of air at the outlet any quality reduction may be detected. However as most compressor owners do not have this test equipment the recommended method of determining cartridge operating life is to maintain a written record of the volume of air processed by the purification system.
