Air Compressor Air Oil Separator ELGI 0104 5105 0

The ELGI 0104 5105 0 is a key componement of your lubricated rotary screw air compressor. The oil is injected with the intake air to seal the compressors screws with the chamber, lubricate bearings and remove heat of compression from the machine, after the air and oil mix is compressed by the screw a separator will filter the mix to reinjected the oil into the compression chamber and send the air downstream.
A standard rotary screw air oil separator assembly should retain most of the oil inside the lubrification system and entrained in the compressed air a maximum of 2-3 ppm.
Air/oil separator element have a significant impact on the overall performance of a compressed air system. Excessive oil carry-over will result in higher compressor maintenance cost, higher energy consumption due to high differential pressure in dowstream filtration and higher non-quality product cost.
