Effective use of filters and separators in compressed air systems can only be monitored with suitable and supplementary accessories. Filter elements are loaded with various substances. During the operating life, liquid substances (condensate) must be continuously drained out of the system. For this, automatic condensate drains form the appropriate equipment. Solid matter is retained in the filter element and influences the service life of such elements. Differential pressure gauges form an expedient means of monitoring this service life.
