    Water detector for peace of mind

    Despite all efforts to make dryers, water separators and drains reliable, a failure can never be ruled out. The consequence of condensate water in your pipe network and operations can be dramatic: from corrosion and ice formation to bad product quality and process malfunctioning.

    The installation of a Pressure Dew Point (PDP) sensor downstream brings a solution but is often a too large investment. Pneumatech's Water Detector (WD) provides peace-of-mind at an affordable cost. The WD gives an alarm as soon as a 3cl water level is detected. This alarm message is visible, audible and can be routed to a control room thanks to the potential-free contact. The ball valve at the outlet is meant to release water after an alarm situation and is closed during normal operation.

    Condensate Management

    Condensate is the inevitable by-product of compressing air. In the case of oil-injected air compressors, this condensate can contain both oil and water. Pneumatech condensate management solutions remove water from your air system and separate oil from water to help you dispose of it legally, safely, and environmentally friendly.
