What Happens if You Don't Use Air Treatment in Your Business?
Air treatment is used for a variety of applications including automotive, industrial, maintenance, food and beverage industries and more.
Air treatment helps prevent finish damage, scrapped materials, and tool/equipment replacement due to air moisture damage, like rust, when
using compressed air. Air treatment dryers focus on corrosion-resistant heat exchangers that heighten the efficiency moisture separation for
long-term dry air supply.
Water contamination can lead to microbial contamination, corrosion, blocked or frozen valves, cylinders, air motors and tools, premature
wear and failure of equipment. Water contamination of compressed air systems can reduce production efficiency and increase manufacturing
costs.
When speaking of air compressors, compressed air treatment is a method that dehumidifies and cleans air prior to entering the air
compressor.ย This is done using an air dryer and an additional filter beyond the air filter found in a compressor. Air is always
contaminated with solid particles such as dust, sand, soot, salt crystals and water. An effective compressed air treatment system lowers the
dew point of the air and takes out the elements that may harm the air compressor. Remember the higher the temperature, the higher the
ability to hold moisture. ย
When investing in an air compressor or a compressed air system, compressed air treatment is a wise choice when protecting your equipment.ย
Having a compressed air treatment system allows your system to perform at its optimal best and prolongs the life of the system by reducing
rust and corrosion that can be caused by wet, dirty air. With compressed air treatment, you will have clean air that runs faster and does
not contain particles that can corrode the machine over time. Also, air that has undergone compressed air treatment is dry, meaning it does
not promote the growth of rust like wet air does.ย

Your company purchased an air dryer for your compressor, now where should you install it? One of the most common things we see in the
industry are air dryers being stored on top of the compressors. Seems like a wasted space not being used on top of the compressor, right?
Wrong.

We Kiwi's love our Coffee! Coffee, like all other food & beverage products, must go through a preservation process to keep the
beans fresh during storage and packaging before they reach the consumer. Coffee that is not properly stored after it is roasted will lose a
large amount of carbon dioxide, which lessens its' flavor and speeds up the staling process. One of the most common ways to preserve the
freshness of coffee is the use of nitrogen gas. Learn more here:
