Product Description:
The Norgren F07, F72G, and F73G series are general purpose filters specifically engineered to eliminate water, oil, and solid contaminants from compressed air lines. By doing so, they effectively safeguard downstream pneumatic equipment against contamination and corrosion. These filters are ideal for applications in industrial automation, packaging machinery, material handling, and various pneumatic systems where maintaining clean and dry air is critical to ensuring dependable operation.
The F07 series comprises a range of miniature filters equipped with G1/8 and G1/4 ports, making them perfectly suited for installations where space is limited. This series features a sturdy zinc alloy body combined with a polycarbonate bowl that provides a full 360° view of condensate levels. Typically, these filters handle flow rates up to 9 liters per second and can operate at a maximum pressure of 10 bar.
The F72G and F73G series belong to the Excelon modular system, which offers the flexibility of either in-line or modular installation alongside other Excelon air preparation components. The F72G series is constructed with a zinc body, whereas the F73G series is made with an aluminium body. Both variants include polycarbonate bowls and feature a quick-release bayonet bowl design for ease of maintenance. These filters support higher flow rates, with the F72G handling up to 30 liters per second and the F73G up to 35 liters per second, both operating at pressures reaching 10 bar.
All models in these series come with options for filter elements rated at either 5 microns or 40 microns. Users can choose between manual or automatic drain systems, and the polycarbonate bowls can be equipped with metal guards for enhanced durability in demanding environments. The transparent bowls facilitate convenient visual monitoring of condensate levels, while the modular design simplifies maintenance tasks and allows for straightforward system expansion.
