Two-in-one filter technology
02 July 2015
The new UD+ coalescing compressed air filter from Atlas Copco combines two filtration processes in one product.

The company says the two-in-one filter combines the reliability and performance of wrapped filters with a 40% reduction in pressure drops compared with pleated filters.
"Our compressed air solutions are of the highest quality, so our air treatment solutions should be too,” explains Paul Clark, Business Line Manager, Industrial Air. "With the UD+, we have launched a compressed air filter innovation that saves space, energy and money without compromising on reliability and air quality.”
Atlas Copco says extensive testing has shown that the UD+ achieves the excellent air quality of two traditional filters due to the glass fibre filter media package that is wrapped around the filter.
The UD+’s reliability and performances are certified according to ISO 12500-1:2007 and ISO 8573-2:2007 standards by TÜV Rheinland. Available models range from a capacity of 9 l/s to 8000 l/s.
