Frequently asked questions about oil vapor adsorption

Oil vapor activated carbon adsorber for oil-free compressed air

With the use of activated carbon pellets, our highly efficient oil vapor activated carbon adsorbers bind the oil vapor in the compressed air. In this way, they ensure high compressed air quality with minimal residual oil contents of class 0 or 1 according to ISO 8573-1. In short, they make compressed air oil-free.

Our customers in the food technology, chemical and pharmaceutical industries use oil vapor activated carbon adsorption to remove a wide range of hydrocarbons, odors, and flavors.

For many years, we have sourced consistently high-quality activated carbon in bulk, exclusively from selected suppliers. We know from experience that carbon quality makes the decisive difference in compressed air quality and process reliability.

Our products

FST offers an almost unlimited product portfolio in the field of oil vapor activated carbon adsorption for individual applications and needs. Each of our oil vapor activated carbon adsorbers is equipped with an oil test indicator as standard.

To operate an oil vapor activated carbon adsorber, dried compressed air with a pressure dew point of at least +3°C is required. This applies to all compressed air applications, as humidity reduces the absorption capacity of the activated carbon.

Oil vapor adsorber DSS1A–DSS8A

Grün lackierter FST Öldampf-Aktivkohleadsorber DSS1A–DSS8A

With our DSS1A-DSS8A oil vapor activated carbon adsorbers, our customers supplement or expand heatless regenerated adsorption dryers [link (internal): adsorption dryers] of the DPS1-DPS8 series. Volume flow rate and connection sizes are optimally matched to these compressed air dryers [link (internal): compressed air dryers]. Long service lives of 8,700 hours – often even more – make oil vapor activated carbon adsorption with this system extremely economical.
