Air compressors produce considerable amounts of oil-contaminated condensate. This contamination must not be discharged directly into open drains, public sewers or natural watercourses. Air compressor oil water separators, along with drain valves, help make condensate management easier, more efficient, and environmentally friendly. Purchasing an oil-water condensate separator for an air compressor will extend its life and keep a purified stream of air running throughout your system.
