The code highlights water as being the major and most problematiccontaminant found in compressed air.
Airchannel advised that water leads to corrosion and damage to thecompressed air system and finished product and provides the idealenvironment for the growth of micro-organisms.
Airchannel advised Lees to install desiccant dryers and a filter.
The dryer's efficiency easily achieves the -40 dewpoint that isrequired under the new guidelines.
They do this by passing air over a regenerative adsorbent materialwhich strips the moisture from the air.
A pressure dewpoint of less than -22C will prevent corrosion andinhibit the growth of micro-organisms within the compressed airsystem.
Airchannel has also been awarded the service contract for the factory.
