Trident Cleansweep Centrifugal Water Separator

Trident Cleansweep Centrifugal Water Separator

Water is the silent killer in compressed air. It condenses in piping, beats up tools, causes rust and scale, and turns “clean air” into a maintenance problem. The Trident Cleansweep Centrifugal Water Separator is built to stop that at the source by using centrifugal separation to remove up to 99% of bulk liquid water before it can reach your downstream equipment.

Designed for industrial air systems that need reliability, Cleansweep helps protect pipelines, pneumatic tools, and production processes, especially in facilities where water carryover can mean downtime, contamination, or rework.

Built for 99% Bulk Water Removal Across Real World Flow Swings

Cleansweep separators are made for modern compressor rooms where demand changes constantly. With a centrifugal design that remains effective across a broad range of flow conditions, Cleansweep is perfectly suited for variable speed compressors and fluctuating plant air loads.

Performance highlights

• For 99% bulk water removal from compressed air systems
• Flows from 6 to 3,000 scfm (model dependent)
• Tested in accordance with ISO 12500-4
• Helps reduce corrosion, tool damage, and downstream service headaches

Why Cleansweep Separates Better

Centrifugal separation works by spinning the air stream so liquid water is thrown outward and collected, instead of being carried downstream. Cleansweep takes that a step further with an internal shield that improves drainage and further boosts separation performance, helping keep separated liquid from re entering the airstream.

Rugged Housing and Exceptional Corrosion Resistance

Cleansweep is built for harsh mechanical rooms and industrial environments. The housing is designed for durability and long service life, with exceptional corrosion resistance that holds up where ordinary separators start to pit, flake, and fail.

It is also backed by a 10 year housing guarantee, so you are not buying a short lived add on. You are installing a long term reliability upgrade.

Maintenance That Is Actually Easy

Cleansweep is designed so routine service does not turn into a teardown, and keeping condensate out of your lines stays straightforward.

• Externally accessible drain valve for fast maintenance and easy servicing
• Designed to promote reliable drainage and minimize re entrainment
• Helps reduce water loading on downstream filters and dryers, extending their life and cutting service frequency

Specs Snapshot

Cleansweep is offered across a wide range of sizes to match everything from small point of use systems to large plant air mains.

Key operating specs

• Flow range: 6 to 3,000 scfm (model dependent)
• Bulk water removal: up to 99%
• Industry test basis: ISO 12500-4
• Built to perform in systems with changing demand, including variable speed compressor installations

Where It Fits in Your Compressed Air System

The Cleansweep is ideal where you want bulk water removed early, before it floods filters, overwhelms dryers, or pools in distribution piping. It is commonly installed:

1. Downstream of an aftercooler to capture condensed water immediately
2. Upstream of filters and dryers to reduce liquid loading and improve overall system stability
3. At problem branches or drops where water accumulates due to temperature swings or long runs

Common Applications

Cleansweep is a workhorse wherever bulk water shows up and causes trouble:

• Automotive and body shops (air tools, prep air, shop air distribution)
• CNC, fabrication, and general manufacturing
• Packaging and production environments where moisture threatens quality
• Plants with long piping runs, frequent compressor cycling, or heavy condensate loads
• Facilities upgrading to variable speed compressors and needing separation that can keep up

What You Are Getting

When you install the Trident Cleansweep, you are getting a separator that is focused on one job. Pulling bulk liquid water out of compressed air fast, without drama.

You get:

• 99% bulk water removal capability for real protection against moisture damage
• Flow coverage from 6 to 3,000 scfm, so it scales from small systems to large plant air
• Exceptional corrosion resistance for long service life in industrial environments
• Internal shield design that improves drainage and separation performance
• 10 year housing guarantee for confidence you can spec and forget
• ISO 12500-4 tested performance basis for a standard backed, industrial grade solution

If you want a water separator that is tough, proven, and built for the reality of modern compressed air demand swings, the Trident Cleansweep Centrifugal Water Separator is the right piece to put upstream and keep the rest of your system cleaner, drier, and easier to maintain.
