Compressor Filtration: Reliable Performance when the Pressure is on

The importance of maintaining a clean compressor ecosystem cannot be overstated. It affects everything from air pressure and performance to energy efficiency and compressor life.

Donaldson® take pride in delivering cutting-edge, comprehensive technology that spans across the inlet air filter, lube filter, and air-oil separator, setting the industry standard for excellence in these areas.

Inlet Air Filter

For clean air outside you must ensure clean air intake. The inlet air filter serves as the first line of defense, effectively blocking dirt and dust particles from entering into the compressor. 

This proactive measure not only reduces the strain on the air end but also extends the lifespan of both the air-oil separator and lube filter. It guarantees a supply of cleaner compressed air for your plant or the operation of your mobile power tools and applications.

Lube Filter

Each particle of dust that enters the compressor inevitably mixes with the oil. 

This is where the lube filter comes into play, effectively trapping dirt and contaminants present in the oil to safeguard the air end. 

Ensuring the oil remains clean is paramount to sustaining optimal compressor performance and minimising operational downtime.

Air-Oil Separator

Before the release of compressed air to the system, it passes through an air-oil separator to remove any remaining oil mist.

Donaldson air-oil separators employ a unique coalescing media technology, developed to remove oil mist from the air with the lowest possible added restriction.

Donaldson Air-Oil Separators

As the last step before air leaves the compressor, the air-oil separator is often the first consideration in an optimised compressor ecosystem. Donaldson Air Oil Separators offer lower pressure drop and longer life than traditional media while performing at the highest level.

Peak Performance with Lower Pressure Drop

Donaldson air-oil separators deliver the engineered level of oil carryover for your system with lower pressure drop and maximum airflow.

Precision Engineering

Donaldson offers a comprehensive selection of custom-engineered air-oil separators, available in both wrapped and pleated designs, tailored to meet your specific oil carryover requirements while ensuring minimal pressure drop. 

Donaldson's wrapped air-oil separators are well-suited for a wide range of compressor types and feature exclusive Synteq™ media as a standard component. Pleated air-oil separators offer enhanced design versatility by offering increased surface area, facilitating improved airflow, and extending their operational lifespan.
