Product Description:
The Norgren F07, F72G, and F73G series are general purpose filters engineered to eliminate water, oil, and solid particles from compressed air lines. These filters play a critical role in safeguarding downstream pneumatic equipment from contamination and corrosion. They are well-suited for a variety of applications including industrial automation, packaging machinery, material handling, and general pneumatic systems where the delivery of clean and dry air is vital for dependable operation.
The F07 series represents a miniature filter line, equipped with G1/8 and G1/4 ports, making it an excellent choice for installations with limited space. This series features a zinc alloy body combined with a polycarbonate bowl that provides 360° visibility of condensate levels. The filters offer a typical flow rate of 9 liters per second and support a maximum operating pressure of up to 10 bar.
In contrast, the F72G and F73G series belong to the Excelon modular system, which enables flexible installation either in-line or as part of a modular setup with other Excelon air preparation components. The F72G series boasts a zinc body, whereas the F73G series is constructed from aluminium. Both series include polycarbonate bowls and utilize a quick-release bayonet bowl design for ease of maintenance. They provide impressive flow rates of 30 liters per second for the F72G and 35 liters per second for the F73G, with a maximum operating pressure rated at 10 bar.
All models in these series come with filter elements available in either 5 μm or 40 μm options. Users can choose between manual or automatic drain configurations, and the polycarbonate bowls can be fitted with optional metal guards to withstand harsh environmental conditions. The transparent bowls facilitate visual monitoring of condensate levels, while the modular design aids in simplifying maintenance procedures and enabling system expansion.
Features:
General Purpose Filtration
This filtration system is designed to eliminate water, oil, and solid particles from compressed air lines, ensuring the protection of downstream equipment. Its primary function is to maintain the quality and reliability of compressed air systems by preventing contamination.
Available in multiple series tailored to different flow rates, the product line includes the F07 with a capacity of 9 liters per second, the F72G at 30 liters per second, and the F73G capable of handling 35 liters per second. These options allow users to select the best fit according to the size and demand of their pneumatic systems.
The Excelon modular system enhances flexibility, particularly with the F72G and F73G filters. These can be installed either in-line or as part of a modular assembly alongside other Excelon air preparation products, making it convenient to expand or customize air treatment setups.
For applications with limited space, the compact miniature design of the F07 series makes it an ideal choice. This series fits easily into tight areas while still providing effective filtration performance for small pneumatic systems.
Featuring polycarbonate bowls, the filters offer full 360-degree visibility of condensate levels. This transparency simplifies monitoring and maintenance by allowing users to quickly assess when drainage is necessary.
Maintenance is further streamlined with the quick-release bayonet bowl design found on the F72G and F73G models. These bowls can be removed rapidly without the need for tools, facilitating faster servicing and reduced downtime.
Users can choose between filter elements with different micron ratings to suit diverse filtration needs. Options include 5 micrometer and 40 micrometer sintered polypropylene elements, offering flexibility depending on the application requirements.
The system also provides both manual and automatic drain choices, enabling convenient condensate removal based on user preference or operational conditions.
Constructed from zinc and aluminium, the filter bodies are built for durability and long-lasting performance in demanding industrial environments.
The maximum operating pressure for units with transparent bowls is rated at 10 bar, making them suitable for a wide range of pneumatic applications.
These filters operate effectively across a broad temperature range, from -34°C up to +50°C, ensuring reliable functionality in diverse climate conditions.
For harsher environments, an optional metal bowl guard is available, providing additional protection and extending the lifespan of the filtration components.

Applications:
Industrial Automation
In the field of industrial automation, maintaining a clean air supply is essential for the optimal performance of pneumatic actuators, valves, and cylinders. Clean air ensures that these components operate smoothly and efficiently, reducing the risk of malfunctions and extending their service life.
Packaging Machinery
Packaging and filling equipment depend heavily on pneumatic systems. Protecting the pneumatic components within these machines is crucial to maintain consistent operation and prevent downtime caused by contaminated air supply.
Material Handling
Air filtration plays a vital role in material handling applications such as conveyors, pick-and-place units, and various handling systems. Filtering the air helps to ensure reliability and precision during the movement and placement of materials.
General Pneumatic Systems
In manufacturing facilities, general pneumatic systems benefit greatly from the removal of contaminants in compressed air lines. Clean compressed air helps to prevent damage and wear in pneumatic equipment, thus improving overall productivity and equipment longevity.
Compressed Air Distribution
Point-of-use filtration is essential for maintaining the quality of air supplied to pneumatic tools and equipment. Proper filtration safeguards tools from contamination, which can lead to inefficient operation or equipment failure.
Food and Beverage Processing
The food and beverage industry requires clean, dry, and filtered air for packaging and processing lines. Ensuring the air meets these standards is vital to maintain hygiene and quality in the final products.
Textile Machinery
Pneumatic controls in textile production rely on air filtration to function reliably. Clean air helps in maintaining the precision and speed of textile machinery, thereby enhancing productivity and product quality.
Support and Services:
Our Pneumatic Filter Regulator Lubricator (FRL) units are designed to ensure optimal performance and longevity of your pneumatic systems by providing clean, regulated, and lubricated air flow. To maintain the efficiency and reliability of your FRL, regular maintenance and proper usage are essential.
Ensure that the filter element is inspected and replaced periodically to prevent contaminants from entering the pneumatic system. Drain accumulated water and debris from the filter bowl regularly to avoid blockages and corrosion.
Check the regulator for accurate pressure settings and adjust as necessary to meet the requirements of your application. It is important to verify that the pressure gauge is functioning correctly to monitor system pressure effectively.
The lubricator should be filled with the recommended pneumatic oil and adjusted to deliver the appropriate amount of lubrication to downstream components. Over or under-lubrication can lead to equipment failure or inefficiencies.
Install the FRL unit in the correct orientation and location within your pneumatic system to maximize performance and ease of maintenance. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or corrosive environments that may damage the unit.
If you encounter any issues with your Pneumatic Filter Regulator Lubricator, consult the product manual for troubleshooting steps or replacement part specifications. For complex problems or technical assistance, professional support services are recommended to ensure safe and effective resolution.
Regular maintenance and adherence to operational guidelines will extend the life of your FRL unit and maintain the overall health of your pneumatic system.
