Keep your compressed air system compliant and operating efficiently with high-quality oil water separators and replacement bags from Edmac Compressor Parts. Designed for condensate management systems, oil water separators help separate lubricant contamination from compressor condensate before disposal, supporting proper condensate treatment and system maintenance.
During the compression process, condensate forms as moisture is removed from compressed air. In oil-lubricated compressor systems, this condensate may contain traces of compressor lubricant that require treatment before disposal. Oil water separators use filtration and separation media to help remove oil from condensate, while replacement bags and cartridges are used to maintain separator performance over time. As filtration media becomes saturated, replacement components are needed to support continued separation efficiency and proper operation.
Edmac offers OEM and replacement oil water separators, separator bags, filter media, and condensate treatment components for a wide range of compressed air systems. Find the correct replacement using your separator model, compressor information, or OEM part number.
An oil water separator treats compressor condensate by separating lubricant contamination from the water collected throughout the compressed air system. Condensate generated by compressors, dryers, filters, and receivers may contain traces of compressor lubricant. The separator uses filtration and separation media to help remove oil before condensate is discharged according to applicable procedures and requirements.
Over time, separator bags and filtration media become saturated with captured contaminants and may lose effectiveness. A saturated or expired filter bag can reduce separator performance and impact condensate treatment processes. Replacing separator bags at recommended service intervals helps maintain proper separator operation and supports ongoing condensate management.
Common signs that an oil water separator may require maintenance include saturated filter media, restricted condensate flow, reduced separation effectiveness, visible contamination, service interval indicators, or reaching the manufacturer's recommended replacement schedule. Routine inspections help identify when replacement bags or filter media are needed.
Depending on the design, an oil water separator system may include separator vessels, filter bags, adsorption media, activated carbon elements, pre-filters, collection chambers, and condensate management components. Replacement requirements vary by separator model and operating conditions.
Replacement intervals depend on compressor size, condensate volume, lubricant carryover levels, operating conditions, and separator design. Many manufacturers provide recommended service intervals based on usage and condensate processing capacity. Always follow the maintenance recommendations for your specific separator system.
The correct replacement component can typically be identified using the separator manufacturer, model number, service kit number, filter bag number, or OEM part number. Selecting the proper replacement helps ensure compatibility and maintain the intended performance of the condensate treatment system.
Oil water separators are most commonly used with oil-lubricated air compressor systems, where condensate may contain traces of compressor lubricant. The need for condensate treatment equipment depends on compressor design, system configuration, local requirements, and facility operating practices.
