SATA Filter Regulator Systems - 500 Series Overview

Introduction: The SATA 500 series filter regulator systems are designed to ensure clean compressed air in paint shops, preventing coating flaws such as condensation, dust inclusions, and silicone craters. These systems are crucial for maintaining air quality in spray guns and breathing protection equipment.

Specifications: The series offers three configurations: a one-stage sintered filter, a two-stage combination filter, and a three-stage filter with an activated charcoal filter. Each configuration targets specific impurities like oil droplets, vapors, and particles.

Filter Stages:
  • First Stage: Sintered filter for particles > 5 µm, with a six-month exchange interval.
  • Second Stage: Fine filter for particles > 0.01 µm, achieving 99.998% filtration efficiency, also with a six-month exchange interval.
  • Third Stage: Activated charcoal filter for oil vapors, suitable for waterborne paints and breathing air, with a six-month exchange interval.


System Features: Includes a flow-optimized cyclone separator to minimize pressure drop and ensure consistent air flow. The system is modular, allowing for upgrades and retrofitting, and features a maintenance-free bayonet lock for easy filter replacement.

Maintenance: Regular maintenance is essential for optimal performance. The SATA filter timer helps track filter exchange intervals, turning red to indicate when a filter change is due. Maintenance is synchronized across all filter stages every six months.

Technical Layout: The document provides a detailed layout of an air line circuit, emphasizing proper air flow and pressure settings to avoid malfunctions and ensure efficient operation.

Recommendations: Key recommendations include ensuring adequate air consumption, compressor performance, and appropriate air line circuit construction. Guidelines for calculating air consumption in a body shop scenario are provided.

Conclusion: The SATA 500 series filter regulator systems are essential for maintaining high-quality compressed air in paint shops, ensuring both the quality of paint finishes and the safety of breathing air.

Specifications and Requirements:
  • Air hoses must have a minimum inner diameter of 9 mm and be flexible, silicone-free, and antistatic. Recommended high flow couplings for easy connection and disconnection.
  • Technical data for air hoses include an operating temperature range of -40°C to +100°C, a minimum burst pressure of 60 bar/870 psi, and a permanent operating pressure of 20 bar/290 psi. The weight is approximately 210 g/m, with dimensions of Ø 9.5 x Ø 16.5 mm, and antistatic resistance R < 1MΩ. Norms: EN ISO 2398, A4/DIN EN 1953.


Procedures and Maintenance:
  • Regularly check air lines and hoses for cleanliness and replace filter elements if necessary.
  • Repair any leakages in the air line circuit and ensure proper installation of air line circuits.
  • Use corrosion-resistant materials for connection nipples and clean or replace components as needed.
  • Install swan necks at supply points and condensate discharge valves at the lowest point of the main line to prevent troughs.


Recommendations:
  • Use only suitable materials for air line systems, such as stainless steel or appropriate plastics, to avoid contamination and corrosion.
  • Ensure all components between the compressor and spray gun, such as prefilters, ball valves, and hoses, are functioning correctly to achieve uniform spraying results.


Breathing Protection Equipment:
  • SATA offers various breathing protection options, including the SATA air star C and SATA air vision 5000, which are independent from ambient air, and the SATA air star F, which depends on ambient air.
  • Features include safe, self-contained working, excellent fit for facial contours, and optional accessories like air warmers or coolers.

SATA – Your experts for clean compressed and breathing air Compressed air is one of the main sources of energy in paint shops. After being generated in the compressor, the air is fed into the compressed air circuit, whereby impurities such as tiny particles of compressor oil can be carried along right into the spray gun or breathing air. While such impurities are not particularly relevant for many industrial applications, they will inevitably cause coating flaws or pose a health risk in the paint application process. When working with waterborne paint systems, even the tiniest quantities of oil...

SATA filter 500 series – Compressed air treatment system A well functioning compressed air circuit also includes regularly maintained compressed air filter units. To warrant troublefree operation, a filter unit should be fitted either immediately in front of or directly inside the spray booth. While the SATA filter 544 will be sufficient for solvent-based paints, the SATA filter 584 is required when applying waterborne paints, as the activated charcoal stage eliminates the critical oil vapours that can cause coating flaws with waterborne materials. A three-stage SATA filter 584 filter unit is...

Flow-optimised Cyclone separator SATA FILTER 484 With the previous generation of filter units, the incoming compressed air enters the cyclone separator at high speed (undefined position) and is slowed down abruptly when hitting the cyclone separator (leading to loss of energy) before being accelerated again, thus reducing the efficiency to separate harmful particles. The oscillating air flow rate (fast – slow – fast) caused by the abrupt deceleration of the air flow leads to a pressure drop inside the filter stage and eventually in the whole system, preventing the best possible separation of...
