Activated carbon tower for optimal oil vapor filtration

In applications such as pharmaceutical, food and beverage and electronics, where air purity is

critical, there is often a requirement to remove residual oil vapors and odors from the

compressed air supply. Atlas Copco has developed a filter which can provide this level of clean

air, known as the QDT. This activated carbon filter is able to remove both vapors and odors

down to 0.003 ppm, which is class 1 clean air according to ISO 8573-1.

Unlike other carbon based filters, the QDT is sized for real life. There are many look alike

products which have a similar performance rating but for inlet temperatures of just 68°F. The

QDT is designed and sized for an inlet temperatures of 95°F, meaning it will actually delivery the

performance expected continuously all year round.
