Operating pressure
16 bar
Flow rate
6 to 6500 Nm3/h
Standard colour
RAL 9005
DESCRIPTION
TAC activated carbon towers have been
developed for separating oil vapeurs from
compressed air (dry type separation).
TAC series is made from high quality carbon
steel. Flow distributors ensure uniform
distribution of air flow through activated
carbon bed. Dil vapeurs as well as some other
hydrocarbons are separated due to adsorption
process.
Super fine coalescing filter is required
upstream TAC and 1µm dust filter is
recommended downstream to intercept
activated carbon dust.
High pressure version is available on request.
Stainless steel version available on request.

Functionality
TAC - activated carbon towers are intended for
separating oil vapours from compressed air (dry
type separation).
Activated carbon
Activated carbon is adsorption medium with low-
volume pores that increase the surface area avail-
able for adsorption or chemical reactions.
