General description of the CLEARPOINT® V activated-carbon adsorber
8 General description of the CLEARPOINT® V activated-carbon adsorber
®
The CLEARPOIINT L 1000 V bis L 8200 V activated-carbon adsorbers serve exclusively to separate
residual oil contents in the form of vapour or aerosol from compressed air and nitrogen.
The compressed air should be predried, and should not exceed a moisture content of 30% and a
temperature of +35°C. Exceeding these values will reduce the service life of the activated-carbon
adsorber. Therefore, the employment of a refrigeration or even an adsorption dryer is required upstream
of the activated-carbon adsorber.
With an appropriate dimensioning and when the operating parameters and load limits of the incoming
compressed air on which the dimensioning is based are adhered to, the oil content is drastically reduced
through the activated carbon contained in the adsorber. Besides the temperature, operating pressure
and volume flow, the exact life expectancy and dimensioning depends on the applied type of oil, the
compressor type and the humidity of the compressed air.
The following modifications of the operating conditions may lead to a reduction in the activated-carbon
adsorber’s service life:
 Increase of the volume flow

 Increase of the operating pressure
 Increase of the relative humidity of the compressed air
 Increase of the residual oil aerosol content at the inlet.
Therefore, you should benefit from the expertise of our special departments to design your activated-
carbon adsorber.
Depending on the actual quality of the compressed air in your supply network, a prefilter and at least a
refrigeration dryer is required for the incoming compressed air. The prefilter ensures that the oil aerosol
3
content of the incoming compressed air does not exceed a value of 0.01 mg/m . By treating the
compressed air with a refrigeration dryer, the maximum permissible humidity of the compressed air of
30% at the inlet into the adsorption dryer is guaranteed.
Not included in the scope of delivery:
 Prefilter
 Refrigeration dryer / adsorption dryer
 Afterfilter
 Internal tubing
 Oil check indicator

Operating principle
9 Operating principle
The CLEARPOINT® V activated-carbon adsorber from BEKO TECHNOLOGIES GMBH functions
according to the principle of the accumulation of oil molecules on the surface and in the porous
structures of special activated carbon.
The activated carbon is in a container, through which the medium flows continuously top down.
The compressed air, from which the oil fractions need to be removed, enters the device through the
upper connection at the container.
Prior to that, the compressed air must have been filtered at least through a prefilter (residual oil aerosol
content 0.01 mg/m³ at +20°C) and should not exceed a relative humidity of 30% and a temperature of
+35°C. The service life of the activated-carbon adsorber will be reduced when these values are
exceeded. Therefore, the employment of a refrigeration dryer or even an adsorption dryer upstream of
the activated-carbon adsorber is advisable.
The compressed air flows through a compressed-air distributor and travels top down through the volume
filled with activated carbon. During this process, the activated carbon adsorbs the majority of the residual
oil aerosol contents and the oil vapour. Subsequently, the compressed air purified in this manner flows
through the lower compressed-air distributor to the outlet.
This process takes place without regeneration phases. The activated carbon is thus gradually saturated
with oil molecules and therefore needs to be replaced when the predefined service life has expired.
Activated carbon is able to reliably adsorb a wide range of non-polar hydrocarbons; there are, however,
restrictions regarding the adsorption capacity as far as polar hydrocarbons are concerned (e.g.
benzene). It must also be taken into account that abruptly changing operating conditions (pressure,
volume flow) may lead to desorption of the already intercalated hydrocarbons.
.
It is explicitly recommended to provide a shut-off valve both upstream and downstream of the activated-
carbon adsorber and to install a bypass around the activated-carbon adsorber. These components are
not included in the scope of delivery.

10.2 Available options
Prefilter It is recommended to use a BEKO ultrafilter with an automatic

condensate drain. This prefilter ensures that the oil aerosol content of
the incoming air does not exceed a value of 0.01 mg/m³.
For details, please refer to the following filter selection table.
Afterfilter Downstream of each activated-carbon adsorber, an afterfilter

(minimum requirement 1 µm) must be installed that retains dusts and
particles from the activated carbon that develop due to the way the
system operates.
It is recommended to use a BEKO dust filter in an oil and grease-

free version.
For details, please refer to the following filter selection table.
Compressed-air dryer For the safe functioning of the CLEARPOINT® V, the compressed air
must not exceed a relative humidity of 30% at the inlet into the
activated-carbon adsorber. The service life of the activated-carbon
adsorber will be reduced when these values are exceeded. Therefore,
the employment of a refrigeration or even an adsorption dryer is
required upstream of the activated-carbon adsorber.
Please contact our specialist departments to select a suitable
compressed-air dryer.
Oil check indicator For the rough assessment of the compressed-air quality, an oil check
indicator can be used. The oil check indicator can be installed on the
head of the CLEARPOINT dust filter (you will find the adapter and oil
check indicator, as well as replacement test tubes, in our price list).
®

Use eye protection!

Start-up

14.2 Check prior to the start-up

As regards the check prior to the start-up, the country-specific provisions need to be observed.
The plant contains pressure equipment of different categories according to the 97/23/EC
Pressure Equipment Directive. For this reason it is necessary to register the entire plant with
the relevant authority in accordance with the local provisions and to have it approved.
In countries outside the EU, the respective regulations in force there need to be adhered to.

Start-up
14.3 Initial start-up
Please fill in the data from the type plate of the activated-carbon adsorber into the
table on page 3!
Work steps:

®
Ensure that the conditions of use of the CLEARPOINT V are met and that the operation limits
are not exceeded.
 Check the operating data of the plant and compare these with the permissible operating data
from the "Technical data" section. Should you ascertain deviations, adjust the operating
parameters according to the specifications.
 Ensure that all installation steps were carried out properly.
 Check whether or not the activated-carbon adsorber is completely tubed. If not, carry out proper
installation.
 Check whether or not the shut-off valves upstream of the inlet and downstream of the outlet of
the activated-carbon adsorber are closed. If not, close both shut-off valves.
 Set the compressed-air system under system pressure upstream of the shut-off valve on the
entering side of the activated-carbon adsorber. If required, start the compressor.
 Open the shut-off valve upstream of the activated-carbon adsorber slowly. The activated-carbon
adsorber is set under operating pressure.
Filling of the activated-carbon adsorber with compressed air during the start-up must
be implemented as slowly as possible. Under no circumstances must the flow rates
which correspond to those of the nominal performance data be exceeded.
Recommended amount of compressed air during the filling of the activated-carbon
adsorber:
Pressure build-up approx. 1 bar/min (or 1% of the nominal performance)
This is particularly important during the initial start-up / subsequent to maintenance
measures. Flow rates which are too high cause high pressure difference and impulse-
like strong abrasive wear on the activated carbon which can also overwhelm the
downstream dust filter.
 Check all pipe connections for tightness.

 Open the shut-off valve downstream of the outlet filter slowly and set the entire compressed-air
system under pressure.
Filling of the downstream tank/pipe network must be implemented as slowly as possible and
must, under no circumstances, exceed the flow rates of the nominal performance data. The
operating pressure at the activated-carbon adsorber must be maintained (see manometer).
This is particularly important during the initial start-up/subsequent to maintenance measures.
Flow rates which are too high cause impulse-like strong abrasive wear on the activated
carbon which can also overwhelm the downstream dust filter.

Start-up
®
Prior to delivery the activated carbon that is contained in the CLEARPOINT V is dried in the factory. If
the activated-carbon adsorber is not installed immediately after having been delivered, and if it is
installed downstream of an adsorption dryer, it may be necessary to allow dry compressed air to flow
through the activated-carbon adsorber for approximately four to six hours to remove the residual
moisture from the activated carbon.
®
If the activated-carbon adsorber is equipped with a METPOINT OCV, the initial start-up should be
®
implemented without METPOINT OCV. To prevent the risk of contaminations through dust, the
®
METPOINT OCV should only be installed after a trial run of several hours (for the installation of the
probe, the plant section again needs to be unpressurised).
®
Subsequent to the successful start-up, no other works are required. The CLEARPOINT V is now ready
to operate. In the event that unexpected failures occur during the running operation, please inform the
service technician who is responsible for you.
14.4 Restart
®
If the CLEARPOINT V is restarted after a longer down time, proceed as during the initial start-up.
®
Check, above all after completed maintenance or repair measures, whether the CLEARPOINT V is
completely tubed. If not, carry out proper installation.
14.5 Removal from service

For safety reasons, short-term removal from service should always be implemented together with the
compressor.
For the removal from service during maintenance or repair measures, please proceed as follows:
 Unpressurise the plant prior to any maintenance or repair measures!

 Open the bypass line (not included in the scope of delivery).
 Close the shut-off valves (not included in the scope of delivery) upstream and downstream of the
activated-carbon adsorber.
 Unpressurise the activated-carbon adsorber.
Stagnation pressure may occur in pipe sections or in the container due to plugging. It
is imperative to observe the manometer at the container during the pressure
reduction! Ensure that there is no stagnation pressure in pipe sections or in the
container. This is particularly possible if the compressed-air distributor or the filter
element of the afterfilter (not included in the scope of delivery) are blocked as a result
of a large amount of wear debris.

Maintenance
16.3.1 Replacement of the activated carbon

Depending on the operating conditions, the activated carbon has a service lifetime of approximately
10,000 operating hours. Afterwards, the adsorption capacity of the activated carbon is exhausted.
As a matter of principle, replace the complete contents of the activated-carbon filling.
The activated carbon must be replaced by a correspondingly trained and authorised specialist company.
Please request the BEKO service.
The employed activated carbon is not subject to any labelling obligation in accordance with the
Ordinance on Hazardous Substances. However, the usual precautions regarding the handling of
chemicals need to be taken.
In the event of fire, there are no restrictions regarding the applicable fire-extinguishing agents. It is
recommended to use CO2, powder or a directed spray of water; use a directed spray of water or alcohol-
resistant foam in the event of larger fires. Special personal protective equipment for firefighting is not
required.
Spilled activated carbon should be removed, avoiding dust to the largest possible extent.
To replace the activated carbon, please carry out the following work steps:
1. Remove the plant from service. For this purpose, follow the directions in the "Removal from service"
section.
®
2. Place a suitable vessel under the CLEARPOINT V activated-carbon adsorber and open the
draining nozzle (6) at the bottom.

Maintenance
3. Allow the used, activated carbon to flow into the receiver. Ensure sufficient dust extraction.
Subsequent to the full drainage of the container, reclose this nozzle with the seal and blind plug.
According to the industrial safety regulations, the selection of a suitable suction system
is incumbent on the operator of the plant. In this respect, the relevant regulations of
explosion protection need to be taken into account, as the dusts contained in the
activated carbon may induce an explosive atmosphere, depending on the amount and
consistency.
The suction system should be checked with regard to the dust explosion hazard and
approved for these areas (minimum requirement zone 22). Please use conductive
accessories only.
Where flammable vapours or gases exist, an additional approval for the gas explosion
protection is required. Where contamination through toxic, harmful, mutagenic or
mutation-promoting components is anticipated, suitable filters must additionally be
provided.
4. Fill the container with activated alumina until you reach pos. A. Subsequently fill the container with
activated carbon until you reach the lower edge of the upper circular weld (pos. B). Only use the
original activated carbon from BEKO TECHNOLOGIES GMBH. Use a commercially available funnel
for filling.

Maintenance
5. Mount the fill plug with a seal at the filler neck (2) of the container.
6. Check the connections for tightness. In this respect, follow the directions in the "Initial start-up"
section.
16.4 Periodic inspections

®
The pressure vessel of the CLEARPOINT V activated-carbon adsorber must be checked at regular
intervals by a technical expert or an authorised expert. The determination of the time limits regarding
periodic inspections is incumbent on the operator and, depending on the classification into the pressure

In a dry condition, activated carbon is significantly more absorptive regarding hydrocarbons and other air
pollutants as in a wet condition. Therefore, the design point for the dimensioning of activated-carbon
adsorbers lies at a relative humidity of 30% at BEKO Technologies.
In order to make activated carbon work well, new activated carbon or activated carbon used for the filling
of the activated-carbon adsorber during maintenance works should be in a very dry condition.
In order to have, as soon as possible, a fully absorptive activated-carbon adsorber again during
maintenance works, BEKO Technologies offers the supply of predried activated carbon.
We recommend checking the compressed-air distributors, which are installed between the upper and
lower girth flanges and the pipe, every 10,000 operating hours for damage and contamination and to
