ultraaqua
autoclean®
Oil/water separator
for condensate emulsions
Application:
The UFA-autoclean are oil/water separators
for the purification of air compressor con-
densate – which can form even a stable
emulsion (!) – to legal discharge limits.
Filtrate guarantee:
The unit guarantees a filtrate quality
of better than 5 ppm (measured acc.
international standards).
Function:
A pressure relief chamber separates con-
densate and expanding air. The condensate
then passes a sedimentation compartment
– easy to remove and therefore easy to cle-
an. Free floating oil is siphoned off into an
oil can. Two coalescing filters with their
additional oil separation effect reduce the
oil concentration of the condensate before
it is fed – after interim storage in an internal
buffer tank – into the ultrafiltration process.
Now oil- and water molecules are filtered:
water passes the membrane, oil is re-
tained. Pure water leaves the unit ready to
be drained.
Service:
Regular service is reduced to empty an oil
container and to refill soap. All other proce-
dures are automated. The LC-display shows
text: clear information, straight action!
The best time to regenerate the membrane from the
increasing oil pollution is determined by a capacity
control. It measures the INPUT of condensate and
the OUTPUT of filtrate: yielding a negative compari-
son results in an automatic regeneration of the
membrane.
In this way the unit adapts automatically to the vary-
ing capacity needs due to change of season, pro-
duction or just the temperature differences between
day and night.
The effect of this adaptive control is the longest pos-
sible stretch of regeneration processes: longest pos-
sible service intervalls and lowest possible running
costs!
