Purpose and Technical Function

Atlas Copco Breather Filter 1626 6985 01 serves as a breather filter in the oil system, tasked with:

• controlled pressure equalization within the lubrication system housing,
• limiting the ingress of environmental contaminants into the system,
• separating oil particles from gases escaping the working chamber.

Thanks to this, the component supports maintaining stable compressor operating parameters, reduces the risk of oil foaming, and helps limit unwanted leaks and misting within the system.

Benefits of Using a Breather Filter

A properly selected breather filter from the Oil Filters group directly impacts the lifespan of the operating oil and lubricated components. Using a dedicated solution for Atlas Copco equipment allows for:

• maintaining stable oil cleanliness over a longer operational period,
• reducing the amount of solid contaminants and moisture entering the system,
• limiting thermal and mechanical loads on cooperating elements,
• preserving repeatable compressor operating parameters under typical industrial conditions.

A used OEM component is a good choice when maintaining structural compliance with the original system and optimizing service costs are crucial.

Selection and Integration with the Oil System

This type of breather filter is designed with specific flow characteristics and resistance to operating conditions in oil systems in mind. When selecting the component, it is worth considering:

• compatibility with the housing design and mounting method in the specific compressor model,
• airflow and working gas parameters,
• material resistance to the lubricating medium used in the device.

Using a dedicated breather filter for Atlas Copco minimizes the risk of leaks and improper venting, which translates to more stable operation of the entire lubrication system.

Component Condition and Operational Aspects

The offered filter is a used component, allowing for economical restoration of system efficiency while maintaining the original design. This type of solution is particularly useful for older compressor models where new parts availability may be limited, and maintaining compliance with the factory design is important for safety and predictable operation.

Prior to installation, standard visual inspection and fitting to the specific service application, in accordance with the device's technical documentation, are recommended.
