CLEARPOINT® 3eco: the latest filter generation
The latest generation of the CLEARPOINT 3eco compressed air filter series has enabled us to improve our solutions for efficient compressed air filtration even more, we decreased the residual oil content by 10 times after the filter. The differential pressure can be simultaneously reduced by up to 50 % and the energy efficiency can therefore be considerably optimised. For these reasons we are very pleased to add our ECO-Label on this product.
Energy efficient and safe compressed air filtration
Taking advantage of new material and production technologies as well as a flow-optimised, corrosion-protected housing design, CLEARPOINT 3eco provides safe and reliable filtration and a qualitative, improved compressed air with considerably reduced operating costs.
The particularly high separation performance makes it possible to fulfil every compressed air filtration requirement with just 3 degrees of filtration – C (Coarse), F (Fine) and S (Ultra-fine). The new 3eco-filter has of course also been validated by the independent IUTA Institute according to ISO 12500.
What makes filtration expensive? Operating costs make up the largest part of the cost of a compressed air system. This includes the energy costs for the compressor. To keep these costs as low as possible, the differential pressure must be as low as possible. With their innovative filter elements, CLEARPOINT eco compressed air filters offer enormous savings potential.
Filter elements with low differential pressure reduce operating costs
In compressed air treatment, the greatest savings potential lies in the reduction of energy costs. Depending on the utilisation of the system, these can amount to up to 80% of the total costs. The energy consumption is significantly influenced by the differential pressure during the filtration of oil aerosols and particles.
The new CLEARPOINT 3eco filters reduce the operating costs even further compared to the already good CLEARPOINT 3E filters. The energy savings per year are in some cases higher than the purchase costs of the filter elements. And with their oil aerosol separation efficiency of up to 99.95 %, they even increase process reliability.

Function of CLEARPOINT® 3eco filters
The latest generation of the CLEARPOINT 3eco compressed air filter series has enabled us to improve our solutions for compressed air filtration and be able to increase the deposition rate for oil aerosols by up to 10 fold. The differential pressure can be simultaneously reduced by up to 50 % and the energy efficiency can therefore be considerably optimised. For these reasons we are very pleased to add our ECO-Label on this product.
Types of filters
All filters consist of a filter housing and a filter element. Depending on the structural conditions and the respective volume flow, the filter housings are connected to the pipeline via a thread or flange filter.
Threaded filters
Threaded filters are integrated directly into the compressed air line. This can be done directly after the compressor or at the branch of a separate supply line or directly before an application. Often several thread filters are combined to achieve the desired specification step by step via step filtration. Threaded filters are available for a wide range of pressure stages.
Flange filter
Flange filters are used for particularly large volume flows and correspondingly large compressed air lines. They are connected to the compressed air line by a flange and can be mounted on the wall or on the floor. Here, too, there are different filtration degrees and pressure stages.
