The QDT Activated Carbon Tower filter offers a minimum lifetime of 4,000 hours within reference conditions of 35°C ambient and a maximum air pollution level of 0.35 mg/m3 oil at the filter inlet. The filter system offers adsorption of oil mist, aerosols and oil vapour, resulting in a guaranteed maximum downstream oil vapour content of 0.003 mg/m3. The filter system from Atlas Copco is capable of adsorbing an oil volume equivalent to 10% of its own weight and the unit’s oil indicator provides an advance warning as to when the filter is fully saturated and needs replacing.

Applications for the QDT Activated Carbon Tower filter from Atlas Copco include the pharmaceutical industry, food and beverage production and electronic products manufacturing.
