Product Description:
The Norgren B07 and B68G series are advanced filter regulator units that integrate both filtration and pressure regulation within a single, compact housing. These units efficiently remove liquid water and solid contaminants from compressed air lines while ensuring precise control of the downstream pressure.
The B07 series caters to installations where space is limited. It is a miniature filter regulator range constructed with a durable zinc alloy body. The design includes a transparent polycarbonate bowl that offers 360-degree visibility, helping users easily monitor the filter condition. Additionally, it features a non-rising adjustment knob equipped with a snap-action locking mechanism to maintain set pressure levels securely. The B07 series is available with G1/8 and G1/4 ports and supports flow rates up to 24 SCFM (11 dm³/s). Its outlet pressure can be adjusted within ranges of 0.3 to 7 bar or 0.3 to 10 bar, making it versatile for various applications.
On the other hand, the B68G series is part of the Olympian Plus plug-in system, which facilitates quick and modular installation or removal of the units. This series is built with an aluminium body and bowl, featuring a prismatic liquid level indicator for enhanced visibility. The B68G units come with larger port options, including G3/4, G1, and G1-1/2, and are capable of handling much higher flow rates, up to 440 SCFM (207.7 dm³/s). They offer an outlet pressure adjustment range from 0.4 to 8 bar and can operate with a maximum inlet pressure of 17 bar, suitable for demanding industrial environments.
Features:
The integrated filter and regulator unit combines particulate filtration and pressure regulation within a single, compact design. This integration helps save valuable installation space, making it an efficient choice for various pneumatic systems.
There are two filtration grades available, featuring sintered polypropylene filter elements with options of either 5 µm or 40 µm. These options ensure effective removal of contaminants based on application requirements.
For condensate removal, users can select between manual drain and automatic drain configurations. This flexibility allows for convenient maintenance tailored to different operational preferences.
The unit features a transparent polycarbonate bowl (model B07), which offers 360-degree visibility to easily monitor condensate levels. Alternatively, the aluminium bowl with level indicator (model B68G) provides a durable metal construction with a prismatic liquid level indicator lens designed for harsh environments.
Equipped with a non-rising adjusting knob, the system employs a snap-action locking mechanism that prevents accidental changes to pressure settings, ensuring reliable operation.
Its relieving design enables the reduction of downstream pressure when the system is dead-ended, enhancing safety and control.
The compact miniature design of the B07 model makes it especially suitable for installation in tight spaces within small pneumatic setups.
The Olympian Plus plug-in system found in the B68G model allows for quick modular installation and removal, simplifying maintenance tasks and facilitating easier system expansion.
Capable of handling high flow capacities up to 440 SCFM, the B68G model is ideal for demanding applications requiring large flow volumes.
Regarding operating specifications, the maximum inlet pressure is 10 bar for the B07 model and 17 bar for the B68G. Additionally, the temperature range varies between models: the B07 polycarbonate bowl supports -34°C to +50°C, while the B68G aluminium bowl operates from -20°C to +80°C.
Finally, full flow gauge ports are included, allowing pressure monitoring without restricting airflow, thereby maintaining system performance while providing essential data.

Applications:
Industrial Automation
Providing a clean and well-regulated air supply is essential for the optimal performance of pneumatic actuators, valves, and cylinders used in industrial automation. Ensuring the air is free from contaminants enhances the reliability and longevity of these components.
Packaging Machinery
Pneumatic components in packaging and filling equipment require effective protection to maintain operational efficiency. Proper air filtration and regulation safeguard these systems from impurities that could cause malfunctions or downtime.
Material Handling
Air preparation plays a critical role in the smooth functioning of conveyors, pick-and-place units, and other material handling systems. Clean and conditioned air helps improve accuracy and reduces wear and tear on pneumatic devices involved in moving goods.
Compressed Air Distribution
At the point of use, filtration and pressure regulation are vital for tools and equipment that rely on compressed air. These measures ensure consistent performance and prevent damage caused by contaminants or improper pressure levels.
General Pneumatic Systems
In manufacturing facilities, the removal of contaminants and precise pressure control are fundamental for general pneumatic systems. This leads to improved efficiency, reduced maintenance, and extended service life of pneumatic components.
Textile Machinery
Textile production relies on pneumatic controls that require consistent air filtration and regulation. Maintaining clean air supply ensures optimal operation and reduces the risk of equipment failure in textile machinery.
Automotive Manufacturing
In automotive manufacturing, air preparation is crucial in various stages such as paint shops, assembly lines, and testing equipment. Proper air quality and pressure help in achieving high standards of production and product quality.
Support and Services:
