The various hazards caused by water in compressed air to production: During the production of compressed air, the temperature usually decreases gradually. At first, the high temperature generated by air compression keeps the moisture in the air in a gaseous state; however, as heat exchange occurs with the surrounding environment during flow through the pipes, the compressed air gradually cools down. The lower the temperature of the surrounding air, the easier it is for water vapor in the compressed air to condense. When compressed air is released from the outlet during use, the pressure drops suddenly, the volume expands, and the temperature decreases, causing the water vapor in the compressed air to condense further into water. The main hazards caused by water in compressed air are as follows: Condensation on pneumatic equipment carries away lubricating oil, resulting in reduced efficiency of the equipment or even damage to it. Condensate can also accelerate the wear and damage of valves in the pipelines. Condensate can also accelerate the wear of valves in the pipelines, leading to malfunctions or incorrect operation of the gas control equipment ； It causes rusting of pipes and equipment; if water accumulates at the lowest points of the pipes and freezes, there is also a risk of the pipes bursting. Water mist in the compressed air used for spraying can affect the adhesion of the coating to the workpiece, leading to coating failure. Series of hazards, as follows: Corroded pipes ； Traps dust and blocks pipes ； When mixed with raw materials, it affects the purity of the product and leads to an increase in defective items ； A \"water hammer\" phenomenon is generated in the pipes, damaging the gas-using equipment ； It affects the operating speed of high-speed equipment, resulting in low production efficiency ； The hazards caused by oil vapor in compressed air to production: The oil contamination present in compressed air can originate from the air itself, or it can result from the need to use lubricants in the air compressors used. When the compressor suffers severe wear or operates at high temperatures, lubricant can also mix into the compressed air, which causes many problems in the operation and maintenance of the equipment. If the oil vapor content in the air is too high and the air temperature is high during compression, exceeding its explosion limit, it can lead to an explosion or combustion. Air spraying using oil-containing compressed air causes the coating film to shrink and develop an orange-peel appearance due to the interaction between the oil and the paint, which also reduces the gloss and durability of the coating film, severely affecting the quality of the coating. Therefore, the oil in the compressed air must be completely removed before entering the system. The Betten core dryer and high-efficiency precision filters not only provide a technical solution to completely eliminate issues such as water, oil, and dust in compressed air, but also reduce energy consumption compared to traditional purification equipment. The heat-free model requires 5% of its gas flow to be used for regeneration, while the low-heat model needs only 2% of its gas flow for this purpose; **this reduces the energy consumption and production costs for businesses.
