Compressed Air Filters play an essential role in industrial compressed-air treatment systems by reducing contaminants that can affect equipment performance, process reliability and product quality. Contaminants such as oil and water aerosols, solid particles and oil vapour require different filtration technologies for effective treatment.
Parker OIL-X filtration solutions include coalescing filters for liquid aerosols and particulates, dry particulate filters for solid particle removal, and activated carbon adsorption filters for oil vapour reduction. These technologies can be combined according to the required compressed-air purity and operating conditions.
Designed for industrial compressed-air applications, Parker OIL-X filters help protect downstream equipment and support efficient system operation. Correct filter selection, installation and maintenance are essential for achieving the specified filtration performance.
Parker OIL-X Coalescing Filters are designed to reduce oil and water aerosols along with solid particulate contamination from compressed air. These filters use mechanical filtration and coalescence to separate fine liquid droplets from the air stream.
General-purpose and high-efficiency filtration grades can be combined to provide progressive contaminant reduction, helping protect downstream dryers, equipment and industrial processes.

Parker OIL-X Dry Particulate Filters are designed to remove dry solid particles from compressed air, helping maintain air cleanliness in moisture-sensitive industrial applications.
These filters are commonly installed downstream of adsorption dryers to reduce particulate contamination, including desiccant dust. Available filtration grades and configurations depend on the selected OIL-X product family.

Parker OIL-X Adsorption Filters use activated carbon technology to reduce oil vapour contamination from compressed air. Unlike coalescing filters, which remove liquid aerosols, adsorption filters target oil present in the vapour phase.
The ACS and OVR ranges provide oil vapour reduction solutions for different compressed-air treatment requirements. Correct upstream filtration and operating conditions are essential for effective performance.
