System for cleaning compressed air

The characteristic features of system required for cleaning compressed air were analyzed. The metal structures shop of the Alchevsk Metallurgical Combine, developed and introduced a compressed air cleaning system which consisted of cascade of coarse and fine filters. The granulated fluorine-bearing glass was also used as filtering material in component instead of expensive brass tubes. The use of compressed-air cleaning system in metal structures shop at the AMK has made it possible to obtain air with residual dust content.
