Core technology Atlas Copco masters each compression principle and offers you the most reliable oil-free compressors designed for medical purposes. Standard industrial air compressors should not be used when producing medical air. When ambient temperature rises, oil-filtering drops out One aspect influencing the efficiency and purity of air systems is temperature. When using oil-injected compressors with oil removal filters, oil carry-over through filter media increases exponentially according to the temperature at the filtration interface. Such temperatures are not unusual even in colder countries,...
