Compressed Air Filtration
Ambient air contains contaminants that are drawn into the compressor. These contaminants are concentrated during compression and can easily pass into the compressed air system. A typical compressed air system is contaminated with abrasive solid particles such as dirt, rust, and pipe scale. Compressor fluids, condensed moisture, and ambient hydrocarbon vapours also compromise air quality. Contaminated compressed air systems increase operating costs by reducing efficiency. This results in damaged pneumatic equipment, higher maintenance and repair costs, reduced production (due to downtime), and increased product rejections.
Properly sized and selected Kaeser filters in conjunction with the appropriate dryer will remove harmful contaminants. This allows the compressed air system to deliver the quality of air required—whether it’s plant, instrument, or breathing air.
Engineered and developed using the latest innovations and manufacturing techniques, Kaeser filter housings are designed with larger flow areas to ensure the lowest pressure drop and provide easier installation, operation, and maintenance. The result is consistent product quality with minimized operating costs.

If you are looking for assistance in the filtration of dirt, oil, water, bacteria, hydrocarbons, oil odor or vapor, we have a filter, or an element to capture whatever you need to stop. Compressed air, gases, liquids, ambient air, and water filtration is what we do best.
Compressors
Our range of air compressors includes reciprocating piston, oil free, and oil injected rotary screw air compressors, from 3hp up to 660hp, and everything in between. If you do not know what you are looking for, we can assist with that too.
Dryers
Selecting the right dryer and filtration to ensure your facility receives clean, dry compressed air consistently, depends on many things. Our clean air selection process is based around ISO 8573.1 quality class standards.
