Oil separator element life cannot be predicted; it will vary greatly depending on the conditions of
operation, the quality of the oil used and the maintenance of the oil and air filters. The condition of the
separator can be determined by pressure differential gauging or by inspection.
Oil Coalescing Element Monitoring
- The AirSmart controller keeps track of the pressure differential
across the coalescing element. A pressure differential of 8 psi will trigger a service advisory to change
the element and a pressure differential of 15 psi will initiate a system shutdown.
Using an oil separator element at excessive pressure differential can cause
damage to equipment. Replace the separator when the "Change Separator"
advisory appears.

A sudden drop to zero pressure differential or sudden heavy oil carryover may
indicate a ruptured element.
