Product Description:
The Norgren F07, F72G, and F73G series are general purpose filters engineered to eliminate water, oil, and solid particles from compressed air systems. By doing so, they protect downstream pneumatic equipment from potential contamination and corrosion. These filters are ideal for applications including industrial automation, packaging machinery, material handling, and various pneumatic systems where the use of clean, dry air is critical for ensuring dependable performance.
The F07 series represents a range of miniature filters equipped with G1/8 and G1/4 ports, making them perfect for installations where space is limited. Constructed with a zinc alloy body and a polycarbonate bowl, these filters provide 360-degree visibility of condensate levels. They typically handle a flow rate of 9 liters per second and can operate at pressures up to 10 bar.
Meanwhile, the F72G and F73G series belong to the Excelon modular system, which supports both in-line and modular configurations alongside other Excelon air preparation products. The F72G filters are constructed with a zinc body, whereas the F73G series utilizes an aluminium body. Both feature polycarbonate bowls with a quick-release bayonet design for ease of maintenance. The flow rates for these filters are 30 liters per second for the F72G and 35 liters per second for the F73G, and both can withstand a maximum operating pressure of 10 bar.
All models in these series are equipped with filter elements available in 5 μm or 40 μm ratings. They offer options for either manual or automatic drainage, and their polycarbonate bowls can be fitted with optional metal guards to withstand harsh working environments. The transparent bowls facilitate easy visual monitoring of condensate levels, while the modular design streamlines maintenance procedures and allows for straightforward system expansion.

Applications:
Industrial Automation
Ensuring a clean air supply is essential for the optimal performance of pneumatic actuators, valves, and cylinders used in industrial automation. This clean air helps maintain the reliability and longevity of these components.
Packaging Machinery
Pneumatic components within packaging and filling machines require protection from contaminants to operate efficiently. Clean air filtration safeguards these components, preventing malfunctions and enhancing overall equipment effectiveness.
Material Handling
In material handling systems such as conveyors and pick-and-place units, air filtration plays a critical role in maintaining the smooth operation of pneumatic controls by filtering out impurities from the compressed air supply.
General Pneumatic Systems
Within manufacturing facilities, removing contaminants from compressed air lines is vital for reliable pneumatic system performance. Effective filtration ensures cleaner compressed air, reducing wear and prolonging equipment life.
Compressed Air Distribution
At the point of use, filtration is important for tools and machinery that rely on compressed air. Clean air distribution prevents damage caused by dirt or moisture, thus improving functionality and maintenance intervals.
Food and Beverage Processing
In food and beverage production lines, supplying dry and filtered air is crucial for packaging and processing operations, ensuring product safety and compliance with hygiene standards.
Textile Machinery
Textile manufacturing makes use of pneumatic controls that depend on clean air filtration to operate efficiently. This prevents contamination and helps maintain the quality of textile production.
