f16ac Condensate Management Systems

August 01, 2014

Zebra Skimmers is optimizing compressor condensate discharge performance by offering the f16ac system, combining features of a durable translucent barrel, spin welded fittings preventing leaks, permanent coalescing media that collects gravity separating oils, oil drain spigot automatic air release vent, automatic de-oiled water drain port and overflow protection.

"We designed the f16ac Condensate Management System to be a cost-effective alternative condensate system for air compressors with simple design, no replacement elements, and robust materials," states Steve Davidian, Zebra Skimmers president. "As the industry shifts and manufacturers seek improved methods of improving condensate maintenance performance our goal was to redefine point-of-use and develop a flexible solution that would meet these needs. The f16ac System is ideal for removing oils from the condensate build up in air compressor holding tanks while providing a method of separation of oil from water."

As in any Zebra Skimmers product solution, the f16ac System is simple but effective, according to the company. For example, the authorized user simply connects an automatic drain and discharge line from the compressor holding tank to the f16ac and waits for tramp oils to accumulate in the oil collection chamber. The Zebra Skimmers system is flexible enough to service compressors between 5 to 50 horsepower and everything in between.
