How to correctly measure compressed air
Compressed air and gas treatment
We provide treatment of compressed air and technical gases through filtration, drying, and dehumidification of air and gases, as well as process filtration of gases and steam.
With FST GmbH, we ensure that you:
- always have the quality of compressed air and other gases under control
- are confident in the quality of your compressed air
- achieve all compressed air purity classes according to the ISO 8573-1 standard
Services in the field of air and gas purity
We offer a complete range of services for a wide variety of applications. We enable the achievement of all compressed air purity classes specified in ISO 8573-1.
The compressed air purity classes achievable with the reliable equipment we supply range from standard instrument air or technically oil-free compressed air to sterile ultra-pure air or medical breathing air. Supported pressure ranges extend from vacuum through 16 bar up to 350 bar, with flow rates up to 30,000 m³/h.

Filtration
We ensure correct compressed air filtration according to the required purity class and the actual conditions of your operation. We will design a suitable solution, check the current status, and take care of filter servicing.
We remove solid particles, condensate, as well as oil aerosols and vapors so that the air is safe for both the technology and the final product. This can also include activated carbon filtration or solutions for applications with high purity requirements.
Drying
Correctically designed compressed air drying is key to achieving the required dew point and stable operation. We will assess the current state, propose a suitable solution, and provide dryer servicing.
Removing moisture prevents condensation in the distribution lines and during the actual use of the air. The result is technology protection, higher reliability, and consistent production quality.
Oil vapor removal
Oil vapors in compressed air can negatively affect both the technology and the quality of the final product. We will assess their occurrence, propose a suitable solution, and take care of system treatment and servicing.
Using activated carbon adsorption, we effectively reduce the content of oil vapors and other hydrocarbons to minimum values. The result is clean air without the risk of oil condensation and operational contamination.
Cooling
Proper cooling of compressed air is important for subsequent treatment and overall system efficiency. We will assess the current state and propose a solution that ensures the optimum temperature for further processing.
In case of insufficient aftercooling, we will supplement or optimize the coolers so that the air is prepared for drying, filtration, and other technologies. The result is stable operation and higher efficiency of the entire system.
Breathing air
Treating compressed air for breathing purposes requires meeting strict quality requirements. We will assess the existing state and propose a solution corresponding to standards and specific use.
We remove particles, moisture, oil, and harmful gases (CO, CO₂, NOx, SO₂) and ensure the required air quality, including correct oxygen content. The result is safe and reliable breathing air for your applications.
Condensate processing
Condensate from compressed air contains oil, dirt, and other pollutants that cannot be safely discharged without treatment. We will assess its composition and propose a suitable purification solution.
We ensure effective separation of oil and impurities so that the condensate can be ecologically discharged in accordance with current legislation. The result is safe operation without risk to the environment.
Did you find a weak point during measurement? Let’s eliminate it.
We will design and provide service that returns your system to optimal condition.
Service and maintenance of compressed air systems, especially filters and adsorption dryers, are a fundamental part of industrial maintenance. The goal is to continuously maintain the required and necessary purity of compressed air, as well as efficiency, economical operation, and operational reliability throughout the service life of the compressed air treatment system.
