Automatic Drain Filter Regulator NORGREN B68G8AKAR1RLN 1 PTF Port 5µm Filtration 04-8 Bar Range No Gauge

Product Description:

The Norgren B68G Series is a high-performance Filter Regulator featured within the Olympian Plus™ product line. It is designed to provide efficient filtration and accurate pressure regulation in a single, compact unit, making it ideal for various industrial applications.

Specifically engineered for challenging industrial environments, this series effectively removes contaminants such as water, oil mist, and particulates from compressed air systems. With a standard filtration rating of 40μm, it ensures clean air while maintaining a stable and reliable output pressure to support optimal system performance.

The integrated design of the B68G Series not only saves valuable space but also reduces the number of potential leak points, thereby improving the overall reliability of the system. Its robust construction using high-quality aluminum alloy enhances durability and longevity under demanding operating conditions.

As a flagship product from Norgren, a part of IMI plc, the B68G Series is well-regarded for its excellent regulation capabilities and versatile configuration options. This makes it a trusted and widely used solution in automated manufacturing, process machinery, and various equipment applications around the world.

Features:

The integrated design of this unit combines both a filter and a regulator into a single compact device. This approach not only saves valuable space but also reduces the number of installation components required. By minimizing potential leak points, the system achieves enhanced reliability and improved performance.

Equipped with a large-area 40μm sintered plastic filter element, the coalescing filtration is highly efficient. It effectively eliminates water aerosols, oil mist, and solid particles from the compressed air stream, ensuring cleaner and purer air for your applications.

Pressure regulation is achieved through a diaphragm-operated balanced valve design. This mechanism provides accurate and stable control, allowing for quick response times and consistent output even when inlet pressures or flow demands vary significantly.

Constructed with durability in mind, the main body, bonnet, and bowl are made from robust aluminum alloy. This material choice guarantees strength and long service life, making the unit well-suited for demanding industrial environments.

The operation is user-friendly, featuring a non-rising adjustment knob with a snap-action lock. This ensures that the preset pressure is securely maintained, preventing any unintentional adjustments during use.

Maintenance is straightforward thanks to the metal bowl that incorporates a heat-resistant Pyrex sight glass. This clear window allows for easy visual monitoring of the condensate level, facilitating timely upkeep and ensuring optimal function.

To accommodate varying application requirements, the product offers flexible configuration options. These include choices between manual or automatic drains, alternative pressure ranges, a finer 5μm filter element, and a non-relief (no-bleed) version, providing tailored solutions to meet specific needs.

• Proper installation is essential; please follow the flow direction markings to ensure correct setup.
• Choose the model that best fits your requirements by considering factors such as flow capacity, pressure range, and filtration level.

Support and Services:

Our Pneumatic Filter Regulator Lubricator (FRL) units are designed to ensure optimal performance and longevity of your pneumatic systems. These products combine filtration, regulation, and lubrication functions to provide clean, controlled, and lubricated air to pneumatic tools and equipment.

For technical support, ensure that the FRL unit is installed according to the specified flow direction and pressure ratings. Regular maintenance includes checking and replacing filter elements, monitoring pressure settings, and refilling the lubricator reservoir with the recommended lubricant type to maintain system efficiency.

When troubleshooting, verify that the air supply is clean and dry, the pressure settings meet the system requirements, and that the lubricator is dispensing the correct amount of lubricant. Avoid using incompatible oils or exceeding the maximum pressure limits to prevent damage.

For service and replacement parts, always use genuine components to maintain product integrity and warranty coverage. Detailed manuals and maintenance guides are available to assist with installation, operation, and upkeep of the FRL units.
