When space is at a premium, combine superior dual-layer filtration with precise downstream pressure control in one integrated module. Air Filter Regulator Combination Units provide a combined filter/regulator system as a single unit to save space without compromising control or filtration.

    The filter's dual-layer element eliminates the need for multiple filters in series, providing high flow, minimal pressure loss, and 3 times the life of standard single-layer elements.

    The filter should first receive the supply air and then extract most of the moisture and air duct contaminants, typically as low as 5 microns and can be as small as 0.3 microns depending on the type of filter selected.

    Compressed air filters require preventive maintenance to ensure optimum efficiency and effective filtration. Compressed air filters need to be replaced approximately every 4-6 months, depending on usage and the condition of the incoming air.

    The filter can usually be seen through a bowl or sight glass for easy self-monitoring. The moisture extracted from the compressed air will collect in the filter bowl. Periodic monitoring and draining, either manually or via the optional automatic drain feature, is required as part of the air preparation procedure. Make sure to use plumbing to route the drain properly for proper disposal (and avoid mess).

    Air Preparation: Regulator

Adjust supply pressure fluctuations to precisely control downstream pressure. Streamlined embedded meter standard.

    After the filter, a pressure relief valve or regulator will draw in clean, dry air and provide a way to control downstream pressure. Using a manually controlled regulator may seem a little counterintuitive. "Closing" the valve by turning it clockwise actually compresses the regulating spring inside the valve and allows more pressure to pass downstream.

    While the regulator itself affects flow in the process, best air preparation practices require that the regulator be used only to regulate downstream pressure. For on/off functions, or controlling airflow in a system, simple on/off valves and metering valves (or flow controls) are recommended.
