1.Filter, Regulator & Lubricator Combos - Overview A compact three in one air preparation unit that integrates filtration, pressure regulation, and lubrication for pneumatic systems. Designed to improve tool life, reduce maintenance, and provide clean, calibrated air to downstream components. - Key benefits - Protects downstream equipment by removing particulates, moisture, and oil aerosols from the air line. - Delivers stable, adjustable downstream pressure for consistent tool performance and predictable cycle times. - Reduces wear and friction in cylinders and actuators by introducing controlled lubrication. - Simplifies installation and service with a single, integrated unit and fewer connection points. - How it works - Filter stage removes solids and condensate from incoming air. - Regulator stage maintains a chosen downstream pressure within a specified range. - Lubricator stage introduces a precise amount of oil into the air line to lubricate moving parts. - Compatibility and sizing - Compatible with standard pneumatic systems and common connection sizes. - Available in multiple connection configurations to fit typical inline and panel-mount layouts. - Designed for straightforward integration with existing FRL setups and tool lines. - Materials and construction - Robust body construction suitable for workshop environments. - Fittings and seals chosen for durability and reliable operation. - Accessible components for inspection and routine maintenance. - Performance attributes - Consistent pressure regulation with minimal fluctuation during operation. - Effective filtration for a range of dust and condensate conditions. - Lubrication compatibility with a broad spectrum of pneumatic tools and actuators. - Quick to adjust and easy to verify with visible indicators on compatible models. - Maintenance and service - Regular inspection of the filter element and bowl for signs of wear or contamination. - Drain condensate from the bowl as required; check lubricant level if applicable by model. - Periodic verification of regulator setting to maintain target downstream pressure. - Use scenarios 1) Automotive assembly line: Drives pneumatic grippers and actuators with clean, regulated air to ensure precise pick-and-place cycles and repeatable performance. 2) Painting and finishing operations: Filters out particulates and moisture to protect spray equipment, while regulating pressure for consistent atomization and coverage; lubrication helps extend nozzle life. 3) General machining and automation: Provides reliable air preparation for cylinders, rotary actuators, and automation tooling, reducing downtime due to moisture, contaminants, or pressure drift.
