Filter regulators are vital components in compressed air systems, designed to significantly enhance operational efficiency and reliability. These innovative devices seamlessly integrate the dual functions of air filtration and pressure regulation, making them indispensable in high-demand environments.

Features:

– Versatile Applications: Perfectly suited for industrial workshop air supply setups that require robust and high-volume air delivery, ensuring optimal performance.

– User-Friendly Design: The regulator assembly features a convenient locking control knob, allowing for precise pre-setting of air pressure. Users can effortlessly manage air flow to meet the specific needs of their applications.

Advanced Filtration: It is equipped with a high-quality bronze filter that effectively captures contaminants, ensuring a clean air supply and protecting downstream equipment.

Durable Protection: The filter is housed within a sturdy metal bowl cage, which provides robust protection against mechanical damage.

Efficient Condensate Management: When the pressure in the bowl drops, a float valve activates, automatically opening to drain and evacuate any built-up condensate, thus preventing water accumulation and potential system issues.

– Secure Pressure Adjustment: Features a non-raising “press to lock” adjusting knob, which allows users to securely lock in their desired pressure setting, preventing unintentional adjustments during operation.

– Easy Drainage: The drain valve is designed with a male 1/8″ BSP outlet, simplifying the process of condensate removal.

– Modular and Flexible: Its modular design allows for easy integration into various setups, while also offering excellent flow and regulating characteristics.

– Convenient Mounting: Supplied with a wall bracket for easy installation and accessibility.

Precautions:

– Flow Direction Awareness: It is crucial to observe and adhere to the correct direction of flow prior to installation; connect the piping accordingly to ensure optimal performance.

– Pre-Installation Cleaning: Always flush piping thoroughly to eliminate dirt, dust, rust, and other foreign particles that could hinder performance.

– Clean Environment Required: Install the filter regulator in a clean, dust-free environment to ensure its longevity and reliability.

– Safe Threading Practices: Utilise nipples with taper threads (R) with Teflon tape for secure sealing, ensuring that no tape enters the unit. For straight-thread nipples (G), always apply a sealing washer to guarantee a leak-proof connection.

– Material Sensitivity: Exercise caution with polycarbonate bowls; these may become compromised or fail if exposed to synthetic oils, thinners, solvents, trichloroethylene, kerosene, or other aromatic hydrocarbons, which can lead to hazardous situations.

Pressure Setting:

To adjust pressure accurately, pull the knob outward and turn it clockwise to increase the pressure to the desired level. After setting the pressure, push the knob back into its locked position to secure your settings. Conversely, turning the knob counter clockwise will gradually decrease the pressure, providing you with the flexibility needed for various applications.

Do i need a filter regulator on my air compressor?

Absolutely! When utilizing an air compressor, it is essential to incorporate both a regulator and a filter to safeguard your tools and ensure optimal performance. A regulator is vital as it meticulously controls and reduces the air pressure to an ideal level tailored for your specific tools. This not only prevents potential damage but also minimizes energy wastage. Meanwhile, a filter plays a critical role in purifying the air by removing moisture and harmful contaminants, which can lead to equipment malfunctions. By doing so, it enhances efficiency and significantly prolongs the lifespan of your tools.

• By integrating a regulator and filter into your air compressor setup, you’ll ensure your tools perform at their best while reducing the risk of damage and inefficiency.
