Puma Oil and Water Separator - 12 Bar Max Pressure, Inline Compressed Air Filter for Spray Guns and Pneumatic Tools

The Secret to a Flawless, Professional Finish

 

The Puma Oil and Water Separator is the ultimate insurance policy for your pneumatic projects. When air is compressed, it naturally creates moisture and can pick up trace amounts of oil from the compressor pump. If these contaminants reach your air tool—especially a spray gun—they can cause devastating "fisheyes," orange peel textures, and rust. This compact inline unit acts as a high-efficiency barrier, extracting both water vapor and oil mist in a single pass to ensure only clean, dry air reaches your workpiece.

Designed for versatility and ease of use, this separator handles a high working pressure of up to 12 Bar (174 PSI), making it suitable for both home workshops and semi-industrial body shops. Its lightweight, inline design allows it to be installed directly between the air hose and the tool without restricting airflow or adding significant bulk. Whether you are performing high-end automotive refinishing or simply want to extend the life of your air-powered wrenches and grinders, the Puma Separator is an essential addition to any compressed air system.

 

Key Features

• Dual Contaminant Removal: Effectively traps both water condensate and oil mist to prevent tool damage and paint defects.

• High-Pressure Rating: Built to withstand a maximum working pressure of 12 Bar, compatible with most commercial compressors.

• Inline Efficiency: Designed for direct connection to air tools (like spray guns) for localized, maximum-impact filtration.

• Durable Construction: A robust yet compact unit (approx. 11 cm height) designed for the rigors of a busy workshop environment.

• Minimal Flow Restriction: Provides high-purity air without causing significant pressure drops that would affect tool performance.

 

What’s in the Box?

• 1 x Puma Oil and Water Separator (Inline Unit)

 

Ideal Applications

• Automotive Spray Painting: Crucial for achieving "mirror" finishes without oil or water contamination.

• Precision Woodworking: Ensures clear coats and lacquers are applied without moisture bubbles.

• Air Tool Maintenance: Protects the internal mechanical parts of impact wrenches and nailers from water-induced corrosion.

 

Top 3 Frequently Asked Questions

1. Where exactly should I install this separator? For the best results, install it as close to the tool as possible (e.g., at the base of your spray gun). This ensures that any moisture that might have condensed inside the length of your air hose is caught before it exits the nozzle.

2. Does this replace a wall-mounted regulator/filter? While it provides excellent localized filtration, it works best as a "secondary" filter. Using it in conjunction with a larger wall-mounted moisture trap provides the highest level of air purity for professional-grade painting.

3. Is this compatible with high-volume compressors? Yes. Since it is rated for up to 12 Bar, it is compatible with most standard workshop compressors used for spray painting and pneumatic tool operation.
