Product Description:
The Norgren F17 and F18 series are high flow, general-purpose compressed air filters engineered to eliminate liquid water and solid contaminants from pneumatic systems. These filters play a critical role in safeguarding downstream air-operated components such as valves, cylinders, and tools, preventing corrosion and potential damage.
The F17 series accommodates port sizes ranging from G3/4 to G1-1/4 and supports flow rates up to 236 dm³/s (500 SCFM). In comparison, the F18 series is designed for larger port sizes, specifically G1-1/2 and G2, with flow capacities reaching up to 765 dm³/s. Both series operate at a maximum inlet pressure of 17 bar and can function effectively within a temperature range of -20°C to +80°C.
Equipped with sintered polypropylene filter elements available in either 40 μm or 5 μm options, these filters provide efficient particulate removal suitable for a broad spectrum of industrial applications. Users can choose between manual 1/4-turn drains or automatic drain configurations to meet varying maintenance preferences.
The filters feature an aluminium alloy bowl integrated with a highly visible prismatic liquid level indicator lens, which simplifies monitoring of condensate accumulation. Additionally, the screw-on bowl design allows for hassle-free servicing without the need for tools or disconnecting the unit from the air line.
Features:
High Flow Capacity
The F17 series offers flow rates up to 236 dm³/s (500 SCFM), while the F18 series can handle higher volumes, reaching up to 765 dm³/s. These capacities make the series ideal for demanding applications that require large flow rates.
Filtration Options
Two filtration grades are available to suit different needs: 40 μm and 5 μm sintered polypropylene elements. These filters efficiently remove particulate contaminants to ensure clean air supply.
Drain Configurations
Users can choose between manual and automatic drain options. The manual drain features a convenient 1/4-turn mechanism, while the automatic drain offers hands-free operation for continuous maintenance.
Durable Aluminium Alloy Bowl
The unit is equipped with a sturdy aluminium alloy bowl that includes a sight glass and a prismatic liquid level indicator lens, providing highly visible monitoring of fluid levels.
Tool-Free Maintenance
The screw-on bowl design enables servicing without the need for tools or detaching the unit from the air line. This feature significantly reduces maintenance time and effort.
High Pressure Compatibility
Designed for high-pressure pneumatic systems, these filters can operate at a maximum inlet pressure of 17 bar (247 psi), ensuring reliable performance under demanding conditions.
Wide Operating Temperature Range
The filters maintain effective operation across a broad temperature range, from -20°C to +80°C, making them suitable for a variety of environmental conditions.
Reliable Sealing
Standard Nitrile Rubber (NBR) seals provide dependable sealing performance, helping to prevent leaks and maintain system integrity.
Effective Contaminant Removal
The filters are capable of removing both liquid and solid contaminants, protecting air-operated devices from damage caused by water, oil, and particulates.
Multiple Port Sizes
The F17 series offers port sizes of G3/4, G1, and G1-1/4, while the F18 series provides larger options including G1-1/2 and G2. This variety allows compatibility with different system requirements.
