Description

Mattei Filter Element Part C2-0010

In modern manufacturing processes compressed air plays the role of a safe, reliable and economic energy supply. The air delivered by compressors must be treated to obtain quality air. Otherwise, the life of pneumatic tools and the quality of finished products will be jeopardized. Two different types of contaminants may seriously affect the quality of compressed air:

1. atmospheric contaminants
2. plant contaminants

Regarding atmospheric pollution, a cubic meter of urban compressed air at 7 bar can contain one thousand million particles, including fine dust (combustion particles) gas and hydrocarbon vapor originating from industrial discharges. Contamination of the air system occurs because compressors and fittings can produce rust particles, waste and lubricating oil sludge. Even ‘oil free’ compressors have this problem, as they compress gases, oil vapors and fine particles contained in the polluted atmosphere and then transfer them to the condensate in the air system.
Contaminants produce corrosive emulsions obstructing the pipelines, increasing the pressure losses (and consequently the manufacturing costs), such emulsions may clog and wear out pneumatic tools and sometimes also the air system is blocked.
Mattei, a market leader in compressed air technology, supplies a wide range of high efficiency filters to eliminate impurities and contaminants in all industrial applications of compressed air. Particularly, Mattei filters ensure the air is up to 99,99% technically oil free by the use of specific materials. Following filters are available:

• prefilters to eliminate rough impurities;
• fine filters to eliminate micro-drops of liquid and powdered
  particles;
• activated charcoal filters ensure the elimination of oil odors and
  vapors.

The first two filters are of a mechanic and coalescing type, while the third is an adsorption type.

We carry the full line of Mattei compressors and Mattei OEM parts.
