MTA MG 045/A compressed air treatment system

• Ensuring dry, clean air for pneumatic conveying systems in bakeries and snack food production.
• Providing treated air for packaging machinery to prevent moisture contamination of food products.
• Supplying oil-free air for instrumentation and control systems in food processing plants.
• Maintaining air quality for fermentation processes and sterile environments in dairy and beverage production.

Typical flow rate

For this class of equipment, flow rates commonly range from 45 to 100 m³/hr, depending on the specific model and application demands.

Dew point

Refrigerant dryers like the MG 045/A typically achieve a pressure dew point of +3°C, suitable for most industrial and food processing applications.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a standard single-phase 230V, 50Hz electrical supply.

Air quality standards

When properly maintained, these systems are designed to meet ISO 8573-1 air quality classes, often Class 4 for pressure dew point.

Footprint

Compressed air treatment systems of this capacity typically have a compact footprint, often less than 1m².

Connections

Commonly features standard industrial pipe connections, typically ranging from 3/4" to 1" BSP for air inlet and outlet.

• What is the primary function of a compressed air treatment system like the MTA MG 045/A?

  Its primary function is to remove moisture, oil, and particulate matter from compressed air, ensuring the air quality required for sensitive industrial and food processing applications.

• Why is treated compressed air important in food processing?

• What maintenance is typically required for this type of unit?

• Can this system be integrated with existing compressed air infrastructure?

• What is a refrigerant dryer, and how does it work?

Used air compressors for lab and pharma applications are generally valued for reliability and cost savings. Buyers typically prioritize checking maintenance history, confirming pressure ratings meet specific requirements, and verifying oil-free operation where contamination control matters. Key strengths include durability when properly serviced, consistent performance across extended operational hours, and significant capital cost reduction compared to new units. Inspecting seals, checking for corrosion, and confirming recent servicing records are standard considerations when purchasing secondhand.
