What is OCF and how does it work?

OCF is a replacement filter cartridge fitted with FoamFlex, Test 1 Solutions’ patented oil/water separation polymer. Condensate flows through the cartridge; FoamFlex absorbs the oil and blocks its passage, so purified water comes out.

Which oil/water separators is it compatible with?

It is compatible with oil/water condensate separators from all manufacturers. Contact us with your separator’s model and we’ll confirm the right cartridge size – request a quote to get started.

Does it use activated carbon?

No. The FoamFlex media handles oil separation without an activated-carbon stage, which simplifies servicing and reduces waste.

What results does it get in tests?

Independent field and lab tests show OCF keeps residual oil well under the legal discharge limit of 10 mg/l, where standard filters reach or exceed it within days. Mineral oil – Case 1 (plastics manufacturing, 8 l/h) Residual oil Standard filter 14 mg/l within 10 days (start 517 mg/l) OCF – 1 month 2.7 mg/l OCF – 2 months 0.4 mg/l OCF – 11 months 1.3 mg/l Mineral oil – Case 2 (plastics manufacturing, 15 l/h) Residual oil Standard filter 6.8 mg/l within 10 days (start 63.8 mg/l) OCF – 1 month 1.2 mg/l OCF – 4 months 0.9 mg/l OCF – 8 months 1.4 mg/l Synthetic oil – aseptic room, 8 l/h Residual oil Standard filter 5.5 mg/l within 10 days (start 18 mg/l) OCF – 1 month 1.4 mg/l OCF – 4 months 1.1 mg/l Independent partner test – total hydrocarbons (ASTM D7575-11, 2020) Result 335 compressor hours 0.27 mg/l 670 compressor hours <1 mg/l 2000 compressor hours 1.2 mg/l Legal discharge limit: 10 mg/l total hydrocarbons. Test reports no. 140537 / 141567 / 142229 (2020).

How to use

Confirm the cartridge size for your oil/water separator model – it fits separators from all manufacturers.
Fit the OCF cartridge in place of the standard filter element.
Let condensate pass through: FoamFlex retains the oil, clean water exits.
Periodically check residual oil against your local discharge limit (commonly 10 mg/l).
Replace the cartridge at end of life; ask Test 1 Solutions about disposal through specialised partners.
