Atlas Copco has introduced UD+ coalescing compressed air filters available with capacities of 19 scfm to 16950 scfm, which combine two filtration processes into one product while reducing pressure drops by 40 percent.

The two-in-one UD+ filter utilizes wrapped filter technology—an innovative glass fiber filter media package wrapped around the filter core. Compared with traditional pleated filters, one UD+ filter is more efficient and reliable than two in-line filters that were previously required to bring oil aerosol and solid particles in the compressed air down to levels that meet ISO 8573-1 Oil Class 1 and 2 and ISO 8573-1 Solid Particle Class 1 standards.

The UD+ comes equipped with the highest quality protection layers and a thick package of wrapped, enhanced glass fiber filter media. The UD+ is certified according to ISO 12500-1:2007 and ISO 8573-2:2007 standards by TÜV Rheinland.
