THE PRODUCT
OF EXPERIENCE
STERLING SEPARATION LTD
Every compressor installation
is unique: compressor type,
lubricant, location, ambient
pollution, humidity and duty cycle are the
main variants among many.

These systems produce condensate.
Oil-lubricated compressors produce
oil-contaminated condensate. At the
extremes, compressed air systems may
produce emulsifi ed oil/water mixtures that
are outside the scope of ‘ordinary’ oil/water
separators – but the broad spectrum of the
rest can be treated eff ectively on site with
economical devices such as STERLING’s
separators.
In designing oil/water separators for
the treatment of condensate from these
various installations, care was taken
to develop a product capable of good
performance across the widest range
of conditions. The compressor service
companies who install these units on
106
PECM Issue 26
behalf of their customers have a right
to expect that their chosen device will
perform at least to an acceptable level
right across that range.
Theoretically, STERLING could design a
fi lter to produce a ‘near perfect’ discharge
quality on certain condensates, but which
might block or overfl ow faced with more
demanding tasks. From experience we
know that the most important thing we
can provide our customers is consistency
and reliability. “Right fi rst time” or “fi t and
forget” – whatever their mantra – the last
thing they or their end users want is an
expensive corrective site visit.
STERLING’s oil/water separators, from 75 to
7000 scfm capacity are cleverly designed
to clean compressor condensate to within
the acceptable discharge limits of 20ppm
(oil in water) across the broadest spectrum
of real world condensates.
