Ensures the separated liquids cannot re-enter the air or gas stream greatly improves drainage and further improves separation performance.

This range works with a broader spectrum of flow rates.

nano’s mechanical water separators use centrifugal force to capture and remove water from the compressed air before it enters the equipment or tools. The centrifugal force spins the compressed air, causing the water to separate and collect at the bottom, where it can be drained.

If your system has multiple compressors or airlines, installing a water separator at each point where moisture could accumulate is usually a good idea. This will help prevent moisture from traveling through the entire system and damaging equipment downstream.

The size of the water separator depends on the flow rate (CFM – cubic feet per minute) and the pressure of your compressed air system. It's crucial to choose a separator that matches or exceeds the requirements of your system’s capacity.

Regular maintenance includes checking the drain valve and ensuring the water separator is free of blockages. It's important to follow nano’s maintenance schedule to keep the unit in optimal working condition.

The lifespan can vary depending on usage and maintenance. Our water separators can last many years if maintained properly.

Models GF 0006 WS to GF 1500 are supplied with an automatic float drain as standard. The automatic drain expels water when it reaches a certain level, saving you time and effort by reducing the need for manual intervention. Unlike traditional manual drains, which require emptying the collected water, our automatic system ensures continuous operation with minimal maintenance, allowing you to focus on more critical tasks. Overall, the automatic float drain enhances efficiency, reliability, and ease of use, making it the better choice for managing water separation with minimal hassle. However, Model NFE 3000 WS-ND is not supplied with a drain but nano does sell both timer and zero air loss condensate drain for this unit.

Yes, external condensate drain options are available. nano offers a wide range of both timed solenoid and zero air loss drains.

While a water separator removes bulk water from a compressed air system, it does not remove all types of contaminants, such as oil or dust. nano GFN oil coalescing or particulate filters are required to remove these contaminants. 

Yes, nano water separators have been tested in accordance with ISO 12500-4.

Wall mounting kits are available from nano. These kits allow you to securely mount the water separator to a wall for space optimization.

The cost varies depending on the water separator size required for your compressed air system.
