aftermarket sales of replacement
elements.
product rejects, lost production
time and increased maintenance
expense. For example, trace amounts
of submicronic oil can cause serious
sh eye blemishing in automotive
nishing operations. Water left in
air lines can freeze during exposure
to cold temperatures, blocking ow
or rupturing pipes. Compressor
lubricant not captured in a
coalescing lter will eventually collect
in pneumatic components, causing
premature component failure,
requiring repair or replacement.
Environmental concerns will be
raised if oily, compressed air is
continually discharge into the
atmosphere through a pneumatic
muer.
