ISO 8573-1 Compressed Air - Testing for Contaminants and Purity Classes

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of ISO 8573-1 testing. ISO 8573-1 specifies purity classes of compressed air in terms of particles, water and oil, regardless of where the air in the compressed air system is specified or measured.

ISO 8573-1 Compressed Air - Testing for Contaminants and Purity Classes

ISO 8573-1 provides general information on contaminants in compressed air systems, as well as links to other parts of ISO 8573 for the measurement of compressed air purity or specification of compressed air purity requirements.

The three main contaminants in compressed air are solid particles, water and oil; these are categorized according to compressed air purity classes. These compressed air purity classes group the concentrations of each of the above contaminants into ranges; Each range is given its own purity class index. Range limits are compatible with figures found in practice.

This part of ISO 8573 may not be suitable to fully describe the requirements of specific applications. For applications such as breathing air, medical air, food and beverage, it may be necessary to consider controlling other contaminants that are not identified or included as contaminants in a classification in order to fully meet this requirement.

It may be necessary to consult other sources of information, such as pharmacopoeia, breathing air specifications, and clean room standards, before an air purity specification is determined. Additionally, national use requirements may require regular testing for applications such as breathing air supply.
