Solution: Measurement of compressed air quality

Measurement of compressed air quality

Some industries, such as the pharmaceutical industry, food industry and semiconductor production, place high demands on compressed air quality. ISO 8573-1:2010 specifies the corresponding compressed air purity at a certain point in a compressed air system and defines three contaminant concentrations (solid particles, water, residual oil content) per cubic meter of compressed air.

When measuring the compressed air quality, residual oil, particles and pressure dew point are measured and the compressed air quality class is determined. The compressed air quality measurement also serves as the basis for an optimum treatment concept.

Advantages of a compressed air quality measurement from TÜV Austria:

• Reliable statement as to which purity class your compressed air quality meets
• Reliable data for your quality management system
• Concrete suggestions for optimization
• Fewer production downtimes thanks to the right compressed air quality for your application

Equipped with state-of-the-art particle counters, TÜV AUSTRIA is a full-service provider for determining the purity of your compressed air.
