Air Intake Filtration System
A gas turbine or large compressor air intake filtration system forms a vital part of any given plant. The volume of intake air, the surrounding environment, and the operating conditions all play a major role in the design and filter element selection process. See related products for further details.
- Extensive product range
- Solutions to suit all applications

Air Inlet Cooling Solutions
Close
Air Inlet Heating Solutions
Inlet heating systems for cold climates are designed to protect gas turbines from damage due to icing and to keep the machine running with minimum effect on performance. Icing can block inlet filtration equipment, increasing pressure drop, and potentially cause the gas turbine to shut down.
- Heat the inlet when the engine is offline
- Prevent frost and ice damage

Optimize your Gas Turbine
Close
Air Inlet Cooling Solutions
Gas turbine output is affected by the temperature of the air entering the compressor. Gas turbines are rated at a temperature of 15 °C (59 °F). If the temperature increases above this point there is a loss of power, but this can be restored with AAF’s cooling solutions.
- Boost power output
- Short payback period

Stejasa Damper Support
Close
Ventilation System
A gas turbine ventilation system feeds into the gas turbine enclosure and is designed to remove the hot air generated when the turbine is operating with ambient air from outside. Incoming air can be cooled or heated depending on the seasonal conditions and filtered to remove air contamination.
- Avoid gas pockets inside the enclosure
- Cool sensitive components

Power Generation
Gas turbine power generation is heavily influenced by air filtration and challenges will vary considerably depending on if the installation is base load, peak load, or emergency power. Operating conditions are evaluated in combination with the surrounding air quality to ensure we determine the right solution for your power demands.
