Beko Oil-Vapour Monitor Gains TUV Certification Beko's Metpoint OCV oil-vapour monitoring system for chemical and pharmaceutical production processes has been certified by TUV Nord in accordance with the requirements of ISO 8573-1, Classes 1 to 4. According to the company, even 'oil-free' components give no guarantee for 'oil-free' compressed air, owing to the contamination of the ambient air/intake air. In most cases, a certain residual oil content cannot be entirely avoided in standard applications. The precise monitoring of the oil-vapour content, which is possible at any time, is important. In particular, in critical production processes in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry, in food production and surface coating, the analysis and control of compressed-air quality is a crucial factor, according to Beko. The network-compatible Metpoint OCV offers constant monitoring down to the range of a thousandth mg/m3 and features a touch-screen display and 24/7 pr...

Beko Releases Capability Brochure Beko Technologies has introduced the Beko Capability brochure. For more than two decades, Beko Technologies has developed, manufactured and sold components and systems for compressed air processing and condensate technology. The company has now released a four-page brochure featuring all of its available products. This brochure gives a short summary of the products outlining the basic function of each. Beko Technologies offers a complete programme for all tasks related to the processing of compressed air. A copy of the Beko Capability brochure can be downloaded by clicking the link on the right-hand side of the page or by contacting the company directly.

Beko Introduces Measurement Technology Programme Beko Technologies offers a comprehensive programme of systems designed to save energy and improve efficiency in the application of compressed air. From the company's perspective, one of the key areas requiring attention in most production facilities is the acquisition and analysis of data regarding compressed air use. According to Beko, many plant managers are simply unaware of how much air is used or how much each cubic metre of air costs. With its new Metpoint range, Beko offers a product portfolio that is said to fill this gap, offering facility managers the opportunity to accrue valuable data on the performance of one of the most expensive energy sources - compressed air. The range includes 24/7 online evaluation of oil vapour content; a dewpoint meter; accurate measurement of compressed air moisture content; portable dewpoint monitoring; and compressed air consumption logging.

Beko Extends Range With Owamat 11 Beko Technologies has extended its range of oil water separators with the launch of Owamat 11. Owamat 11 can be used on compressors up to 230 m3/hr capacity - around double that of the existing Owamat 10, which remains in the line-up It offers a cost-effective solution for condensate treatment in one of the most popular compressor size ranges. Owamat 11 is structurally similar to Owamat 10, with the additional feature of a filter warning indicator. It is also possible to fit a heating system Owamat 11, as with all its larger stable mates. Owamat is an oil-water separation system for dispersed condensates. Benefits of the new range include smaller footprint, greater separation efficiency, and the ability to treat some synthetic oils. Separation in the new Owamat range is achieved by the Oekosorb filtration material. Owamat 10 and 11 are suited for integration into portable equipment, and for mounting onto compressor packages due to the wall/floor bracke...
