BEKOMAT® - BEKO TECHNOLOGIES - #2

BEKOMAT® electronically level-controlled condensate discharge without loss of compressed air

It must also be considered that the amount of compressed air condensate produced will vary according to the:

• temperature

• climate zone

• location above MSL

• relative atmospheric humidity

• distance from the sea

• compressed air flow rate

The solution is a condensate drainage system adapted to the actual amount produced. This will cut costs and pre­vent damage. BEKOMAT® condensate drains - designed for the electronically level-controlled discharge of the condensate in compressed air networks - functions without unnecessary loss of compressed air and with minimal energy input. Our customers are clearly convinced by the high economic -efficiency and reliability of the device: there are now more than 1,000,000 BEKOMAT® units installed worldwide.

Condensate formation is unavoidable. It is always a "by-product" of com­pressed air generation and spreads throughout the entire compressed air network. Around two thirds of the condensate is produced in the after­cooler. The rest occurs anywhere in the network as the compressed air cools down. This problem is inherent in the system and can cause both damage and higher costs. The con­densate may:

• be aggressive (pH value]

• carry dirt particles (pipe corrosion, pollution of the air]

• contain harmful substances (ambient air]

• be contaminated with oil (oil-lubricated compressors]
