Air Filter Regulator Air Filter Regulator for Sand Blasting Machines An air filter regulator is used in sand blasting machine to provide moist free air to the blasting pot. An air filter regulator is employed to get rid of liquid water and particulate from compressed gas sources. These are mechanical filters and don't remove oil vapors or chemical contaminants in vapor form. Air Filters are characterized by the flow capabilities, the micron size of the filter media, and therefore the media type are screen, sintered plastic or metal, or other material. Filters will accumulate debris and must be cleaned and therefore the media replaced on a daily basis. The service lifetime of the media is usually supported by no quite a 5 psi pressure drop across the device.
Working of Air Filter Regulator When the air in the air compressor then the water particles are also compressed with air so basically air compressor moist the air from the ambient air. When this compressed moist air separator moisture than the particles impact on separator coil and due to the heavy density of water most droplet connected into water and water drop out from the bottom part of the separator. It takes the air from the outer atmosphere and stored in a storage tank or reservoir. The atmospheric air is consists of air, water, and dust particles in the storage tank.
