Features and Benefits
- Protects equipment from corrosion and excessive wear by removing liquid and contaminants from air lines.
- 11438-16, -17, -1, -2, -3 have screw-on transparent polycarbonate bowls with bowl guards for breakage resistance. These models are not for use in systems where the air compressors are lubricated with fire-resistant synthetics.
- All bowls have a 50 micron filter element and are designed to operate at maximum pressure of 150 psi (10 bar) and a maximum temperature of 125°F (50°C).
- Manual drain air filter features a simple petcock at the bottom of the bowl for manual drainage and an easily accessible filter.
- Automatic drain air filter is specially designed for use in inaccessible locations and features a float-operated mechanism that automatically expels liquid when it is over a critical level.
