CLEAN AIR. EVERY TIME.
AIR TREATMENT
& DRYERS
Your compressor is only as good as your air quality. Supa-Air refrigerated dryers, inline filters, and pressure vessels - designed to work seamlessly with the full Supa-Air compressor range. ISO 8573-1 compliant.
WHY AIR TREATMENT MATTERS
YOUR COMPRESSOR IS ONLY AS GOOD AS
YOUR AIR QUALITY.
Compressed air always contains moisture, oil vapour, and particulates. Left untreated, these contaminants damage pneumatic equipment, compromise product quality, cause rust in pipework, and create costly unplanned downtime.
The Supa-Air treatment range – refrigerated dryers, multi-stage inline filtration, and pressure vessels – remove contaminants at every stage, delivering clean, dry, oil-free compressed air to your application. All designed and matched to work seamlessly with the full Supa-Air compressor range.
5-STAGE FILTRATION
FIVE STAGES TO
PERFECT AIR
The Supa-Air 5-stage filtration system removes every class of contaminate from compressed air – from bulk liquid condensate right through to oil vapour and odour. Each stage is matched to the next for complete ISO 8573-1 compliance.
STAGE 01
WATER SEPERATOR
Removes 99% of liquid condensate at the point of compression. First line of defence against bulk water entering your downstream system.
STAGE 02
COALESCING FILTER
Captures oil aerosols and fine water droplets down to 0.01µm. Protects the refrigerated dryer and downstream equipment from oil contamination.
STAGE 03
REFRIGERATED DRYER
Removes moisture from compressed air using refrigeration technology, delivering a consistent dew point of +3°C to +10°C. Prevents corrosion and valve damage.
STAGE 04
AFTER-FILTER
Final polishing stage - captures fine oil mist and microparticles remaining after the dryer. Delivers high-quality air for most industrial applications.
STAGE 05
ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER
Removes residual oil vapour and odours for the most demanding applications - food-grade, medical, and pharmaceutical compressed air systems.
PRODUCT RANGE

KEY FEATURES
ENGINEERED FOR
CLEAN AIR.
Every SAPM compressor is built around the Permanent Maget AC air-end platform. Purpose-engineered for variable demand, African conditions, and maximum energy efficiency.

PLATE HEAT EXCHANGER
Energy-efficient plate heat exchanger design delivers superior moisture removal performance with lower running costs compared to traditional tube-and-shell designs.

INTEGRATED EVAPORATOR + DEMISTER
Combined evaporator and demister separator in a single unit - removes both condensed moisture and entrained liquid droplets in one pass for maximum dew-point reliability.

AUTOMATIC DEFROST CYCLE
Built-in automatic defrost prevents ice built-up in the heat exchanger - maintaining consistent dew-point performance without manual intervention.

OPTIONAL PLC / HMI CONTROL
Set dew-point targets, log alarms, and enable dryer-to-compressor communication for fully synchronized operation. Supports Modbus on larger models.

ISO 8573-1 COMPLIANT
The complete Supa-Air filtration system meets ISO 8573-1 air purity standards - the international benchmark required for food-grade, medical, and precision manufacturing applications.

MATCHED TO SUPA-AIR RANGE
Every SADR dryer is sized and specified to match specific Supa-Air compressor models - from 7.5kW to 355kW - ensuring correct sizing, guaranteed compatibility, and OEM support.
APPLICATIONS
WHERE CLEAN AIR
IS CRITICAL.

FOOD & BEVERAGE
Compressed air that contacts food or packaging must meet strict purity standards. Full Supa-Air air treatment system delivers ISO 8573-1 compliant air for these critical applications.

MEDICAL & DENTAL
Medical compressed air demands the highest purity - zero oil contamination, controlled moisture, and consistent pressure. Specify the full 5-stage system for medical applications.

AUTOMOTIVE SPRAY
Paint finish quality depends entirely on air quality. Any oil or moisture contamination causes immediate paint defects. Supa-Air air treatment ensures contamination-free air to spray booths.

MANUFACTURING
Pneumatic tools, cylinders, and valves last significantly longer when supplied with clean, dry air. Moisture causes internal rust and oil causes seal deterioration.

MINING & HEAVY INDUSTRY
High-volume, continuous duty compressed air systems benefit from refrigerated drying to prevent moisuture-related corrosion in long distribution pipework.

AGRICULTURE & REMOTE
Remote installations with long air lines particularly benefit from moisture removal - condensate in long pipeword causes significant operational problems.
