Function
K
oby Air Purifiers are installed on exhaust ports of roughing pumps to adsorb
remaining compressed air contaminants such as oil aerosols, oil vapors, certain
other hydrocarbon vapors, and trace moisture. They also trap all foreign solid
particles such as dirt, dust, rust, and pipe scale down to 0.5 microns in size. In addition,
Koby Air Purifiers can be used for efficient adsorption and removal of organic vapors and
aerosols, noxious odors, certain foreign gases and bacteria, and are effective in removing
certain inorganic vapors and aerosols from compressed air and vacuum air.
These carbon filters can be used in conjunction with oil mist eliminators. The oil mist
eliminator traps and returns the oil to the vacuum pump while the Koby Air Purifier removes
any remaining contamination which might otherwise be emitted into the laboratory air.
Range of Possible Adsorption Capacities
Adsorption Capacity
The carbon used in the manufacture
of Koby Air Purifiers has a huge internal
and external surface area with an affinity
for adsorbing organic contaminant’s. Each
gram of carbon has a surface area of
approximately 1500 sq. meters, making
Koby Air Purifiers particularly efficient for
most air purification and gas phase appli-
cations.
Actual adsorption capacity can be as
high as 80% of carbon weight depending
on the specific compound being removed.
Generally (but not always), adsorption
capacity of activated carbon increases
with molecular weight, boiling point, and
concentration
of
contaminants.
Compounds with low molecular weights,
and/or highly polar com-
pounds will not be suf-
ficiently adsorbed at
low
concentra-
tions.

Fittings to Adapt Koby Air Purifier to various connectors
The Koby air purifier does not need to
be placed directly on top of the vacuum
pump. In many systems where space is
limited, it is more convenient to attach a
hose to the pump exhaust port and then

the Koby air purifier to fit the hose. lt is
also practical, using these same fittings, to
run a hose or vacuum line from the top or
exit nipple of the air purifier to exhaust any
remaining contaminants to a hood or
building exhaust system.
Purifier Life
Koby Air Purifiers do not have a visual
change element and must be replaced
periodically to insure efficient adsorption
and filtration of compressed air impurities.

purifier life can vary depending on flow
rate, concentration of contaminants, and
operation temperature. Purifiers will not
deteriorate when not in use.
Fittings - standard fittings on filters
are 1/4" NPT. Optional fittings shown at

to various hoses and flanges.
