Gas Filters & Oil Filters
Oil & Gas - industrial filter systems
The use of high purity gases and oils poses new challenges to the industry in terms of process requirements for advanced equipment and plant construction. To achieve and maintain the required purity levels and safety regulations, high-performance oil and gas filter systems are required. All BOLL & KIRCH gas filters and oil filters are characterized by maximum precision, reliability and safety.
Areas of Application for Filtration
Oil and gas filters are used in a variety of industrial processes. Gas filters are often combined with compressors or turbines, but also with reactors or stationary and mobile large engines. Oil filters are often used in hydraulic and lubrication systems.
Typical Fields of Application are:
- exploration, transport, storage and processing of oil and gas
- production of chemical and petrochemical products
- processing of industrial raw materials
- operation of stationary and mobile power generation plants
Types of Gas Filtration
Gas filtration is a complex task. Depending on the contamination of the untreated gas and the particles en-trained in the gas, different processes have to be applied. The media to be filtered are usually:
This can be a filtration of solids, liquids or a combination of both. The filtration result is always dependent on the type of filter medium / filter element used and the pre-separator combined with it, if necessary.
Requirements for Gas Filters
Gas filtration is subject to both high technical requirements and the highest safety standards:
- the required degree of purity of the filtered gas
- special properties of the media (explosive, aggressive, toxic, harmful to the environment)
- special conditions of the processes, such as extreme temperatures and pressures within the plants or environmental influences (due to underwater operation, operation in extreme climatic zones or special material requirements)
All these aspects require highest precision and maximum safety, which can be identified as common denominators in gas filtration. AOFFILTERS for oil and gas meet these requirements in an exemplary manner.
