Introduction to compressor lubricants Compressed air is the fourth energy utility after electricity, gas and water. Few production lines in the world would run without it. The majority of compressed air is provided by oil-injected screw compressors and the compressor oils play a major role in generating clean compressed air in an energy-efficient way. They account for less than one percent of the cost of compressor operation; however, the right oil helps save a considerable part of the total cost. The oil has three key functions: 1. It ensures that the rotors and rotor bearings in the...

ComPressed aIr Condensate During the process of compressing air, atmospheric air along with water vapour and atmospheric contaminants (hydrocarbon, dust particles or chemical vapours), are drawn into the compressor intake. Additionally, the compression chambers of most compressors require oil for lubrication, sealing and cooling. Once compressed, the air flows into an after cooler to remove the heat of compression. As the air cools in the after cooler, water and hydrocarbon vapours will condense. Additional condensation takes place as the air is further cooled in the piping and air dryers....

MakE tHE rIgHt CHOICE wIll any oIl/water seParator do? Back in the 1980’s the lubricant was much more buoyant versus water and as such floated to the water surface much quicker than current lubricants do. Oil/water separators that were developed to work on this gravity type separation might have performed better in the days prior to the introduction of “commercial internet…”. These days these old-style oil/water separators simply do not perform to current environmental laws and regulations because the modern oils form an emulsion in the condensate which will not separate on gravity.. The...

How Is tHe Puro-Ct ConstruCted? The robust injection-die-casted housing is made from PPC material and the design is based on JORC’s familiar two tower principle. We apply brass thread inserts to ensure a secure piping installation without running the risk of easy damaging of the threads, like you can see when applying plastic threads. The PURO-CT models have two high performance elements consisting of one poly-propylene fiber element and one activated carbon element. The test valve and test bottle offer simple routine sample taking and this give you a visual indication of the output...

Principle workings of the PURO-CT Condensate may be discharged in to the PURO-CT by any type of condensate drain. The depressurising chamber neutralises the pressure. As condensate flows in to the PURO-CT, the oil is filtered out through various filtration elements. The PURO-CT uses adsorption filter materials, instead of a weir, to remove the bulk of the oil. The life of the PURO-CT first stage filtration element is determined by the amount of oil removed, not by the amount of condensate treated. The PURO-CT carbon element is utilised only for final purification purposes and ensures that...

PRODUCT FEATURES The PURO-CT-DISTRIBUTOR is designed to distribute condensate into two or three oil/water This way you can economically combine more PURO-CT units to match up against larger compressor systems. As condensate flows into the PURO-CT-DISTRIBUTOR condensate flows evenly into the connected oil/water separators. This way the elements of the separator are equally loaded with condensate to treat. The PURO-CT-DISTRIBUTOR has a 1/2" condensate inlet and three 1/2" outlets. The PURO-CT-DISTRIBUTOR is supplied complete with the required fixings. PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS Number of...

EXPLODED VIEW The PURO-CT models 3, 7 and 15 are designed to operate the same way. Differences are physical sizing to account for the various compressor capacities and condensate flows. A key feature of the PURO-CT is the simplicity and ease of servicing. The elements are designed to be replaced/serviced in a time efficient way. They are also designed to be as light-weight as possible. Brass threads add to the professional finish of the PURO-CT. As standard the PURO-CT package includes an installation clothing kit including a breathing mask, to protect your service engineer from carbon...

Condensate self-test-kIt JORC offers an in-house laboratory test kit to analyse and determine the success rate of our oil/water separators prior to sale and/or installation. Potential complicated compressor systems, i.e. 2 different compressor brands with different lubricants could make it difficult to determine which elements to use. This self-test kit will enable you to determine the right unit and to demonstrate its effectiveness to your customer prior to installation. The test kit consists of a universal kit for all types of lubricants, any type of compressor etc. The test is quite...
