In industrial sectors, painting processes demand high-quality compressed air. Specifically, the Dew point, Residual oil and Particulates need to be measured and monitored.
To achieve the best paint finish the compressed air needs to meet high standards; otherwise, it can negatively impact the final product.
The implications that can occur when you are not monitoring the Compressed air:
To ensure a reliable finish during the painting process it is highly recommended to monitor the dew point immediately after the dryer and at the point of use, to assist in avoiding any of the mentioned.
To monitor the dew point in a non-Atex area we would suggest installing the FA 510 / FA 515 depending on 2 or 3 wiring requirements.
For monitoring the oil contents of the compressed air we would suggest the Oil check 400.
For counting the Particulates we would recommend the PC 400.
With these 3 products in conjunction with each other you can measure which ISO 8573 you are conforming to. Data for these measurements may then be recorded with the DS 500 digital chart recorder.
If you want to monitor your ISO 8573 classification live, you would need to switch the Oil check 400 to the Oil check 500 and this will be displayed locally as well.
