Product Description:
The Norgren B07 and B68G series are integrated filter regulator units designed to combine filtration and pressure regulation within a single, compact housing. These units effectively remove liquid water and solid contaminants from compressed air lines while ensuring precise control of downstream pressure.
The B07 series is a miniature filter regulator range specifically developed for installations where space is limited. It features a zinc alloy body and a transparent polycarbonate bowl that offers 360-degree visibility. The series includes a non-rising adjustment knob equipped with a snap-action locking mechanism. Available with G1/8 and G1/4 port sizes, the B07 can deliver flow rates up to 24 SCFM (11 dm³/s) and supports outlet pressure adjustments ranging from 0.3 to 7 bar or 0.3 to 10 bar.
On the other hand, the B68G series belongs to the Olympian Plus plug-in system, which enables quick and easy modular installation or removal of components. These models are constructed with an aluminium body and aluminium bowl, featuring a prismatic liquid level indicator for clear visibility. The B68G series comes in port sizes G3/4, G1, and G1-1/2, handling flow rates up to 440 SCFM (207.7 dm³/s). It supports an outlet pressure adjustment range between 0.4 and 8 bar and can withstand a maximum inlet pressure of 17 bar.
Features:
The integrated filter and regulator unit combines both particulate filtration and pressure regulation in one compact design. This fusion helps save valuable installation space, making it ideal for efficient system setups.
There are two filtration grades available to suit different requirements: 5 µm and 40 µm sintered polypropylene filter elements. These options ensure effective removal of contaminants to maintain system purity.
For condensate removal, users can select between manual drain and automatic drain configurations. This flexibility provides convenience and adaptability depending on the application's needs.
The B07 model features a transparent polycarbonate bowl, offering 360-degree visibility of condensate levels for easy and accurate monitoring. In contrast, the B68G model is equipped with a durable aluminium bowl that includes a prismatic liquid level indicator lens, tailored for harsh environmental conditions.
Designed for precision, the non-rising adjusting knob incorporates a snap-action locking mechanism that prevents accidental changes to the pressure setting. Moreover, the relieving design allows for safe reduction of downstream pressure even when the system is dead-ended.
The compact miniature design of the B07 model is perfect for tight spaces commonly found in small pneumatic systems. Meanwhile, the Olympian Plus Plug-In System featured on the B68G ensures quick modular installation and removal, simplifying maintenance and facilitating system expansion.
With a high flow capacity of up to 440 SCFM, the B68G model is suitable for demanding applications requiring large flow volumes. The maximum inlet pressure differs by model, with the B07 rated at 10 bar and the B68G at 17 bar.
The operational temperature range varies between the models. The B07 can function from -34°C to +50°C using its polycarbonate bowl, whereas the B68G operates between -20°C and +80°C thanks to its aluminium bowl construction.
Finally, both models feature full flow gauge ports that enable pressure monitoring without causing any restriction to airflow, ensuring optimal system performance.

Applications:
Industrial Automation
In the field of industrial automation, it is essential to provide clean and well-regulated air supply to pneumatic actuators, valves, and cylinders. This ensures optimal performance and longevity of the components used in automated systems.
Packaging Machinery
Pneumatic components in packaging and filling equipment are safeguarded through effective air filtration and regulation. This protection helps maintain the reliability and efficiency of the machinery involved in packaging processes.
Material Handling
Proper air preparation is crucial for conveyors, pick-and-place units, and various handling systems. Ensuring clean and controlled air supply supports smooth operation and prevents unexpected downtime in material handling applications.
Compressed Air Distribution
At the point of use, filtration and regulation of compressed air are vital for the effective functioning of tools and equipment. This approach helps in maintaining the quality and pressure of the air delivered to different pneumatic devices.
General Pneumatic Systems
In manufacturing facilities, the removal of contaminants and precise pressure control in pneumatic systems play a critical role. These measures enhance system reliability and ensure consistent operational performance.
Textile Machinery
Textile production relies on air filtration and regulation for pneumatic controls within its machinery. Maintaining controlled air conditions improves the efficiency and durability of textile equipment.
Automotive Manufacturing
Air preparation is a key factor in automotive manufacturing environments such as paint shops, assembly lines, and testing equipment. Properly treated air helps in achieving high-quality finishes and reliable assembly operations.
Support and Services:
Our Pneumatic Filter Regulator Lubricator (FRL) units are designed to ensure optimal performance and longevity of your pneumatic systems by filtering impurities, regulating air pressure, and lubricating components. To maintain peak efficiency, it is essential to perform regular maintenance and follow proper installation guidelines.
Before installation, verify that the FRL unit is compatible with your system's air pressure and flow requirements. Install the unit in the correct airflow direction, typically indicated by an arrow on the housing, and ensure it is securely mounted to prevent vibration or movement during operation.
Regularly inspect the filter element for accumulated debris and clean or replace it as necessary to maintain proper filtration. Drain any collected moisture from the filter bowl to prevent water from entering downstream equipment. Check the regulator for accurate pressure settings and adjust as required to match your system specifications.
The lubricator should be filled with the recommended pneumatic oil and monitored to ensure proper lubrication levels. Avoid overfilling to prevent excessive oil consumption and potential contamination of the air supply.
If you encounter any issues such as pressure fluctuations, air leaks, or inadequate lubrication, consult the troubleshooting section of the product manual. Routine maintenance and adherence to operating instructions will maximize the reliability and service life of your Pneumatic Filter Regulator Lubricator unit.
