Separators and Filter Regulator Lubricator Combos What it is A product line that includes Separators and Filter Regulator and Lubricator (FRL) Combos for pneumatic systems. Separators remove moisture and contaminants from compressed air prior to entering downstream components. FRL Combos provide filtration, pressure regulation, and lubrication in a single unit to deliver clean, controlled, and lubricated air to tools and actuators. Why you need it Protects downstream equipment from moisture, rust, and particulate contamination Improves reliability and reduces downtime caused by air quality issues Ensures consistent performance of pneumatic tools and cylinders Simplifies installation by combining filtration, regulation, and lubrication in compatible configurations How it solves common problems Moisture and condensate in compressed air can cause corrosion and wear; separators prevent these issues Fluctuating or dirty air can lead to erratic tool operation; FRL combos stabilize pressure and filter contaminants Lack of lubrication can shorten actuator life; lubricators in FRL combos provide controlled oil delivery for smoother action Key attributes to consider Function: separators for moisture/particle removal; FRL combos for filtration, regulation, and lubrication Compatibility: configurations designed to fit standard pneumatic systems; compatible with common fittings and mounting patterns (model dependent) Size: available in multiple sizes and flow ratings to match system requirements Material: built for industrial use; material options vary by model (metal or durable plastics) Performance: designed to maintain clean air supply, stable pressure, and reliable lubrication with minimal pressure drop Use scenarios On an automated assembly line, place separators upstream of pneumatic actuators to prevent condensate from entering cylinders and sensors, reducing corrosion and downtime In a spray painting or finishing operation, use FRL combos to deliver clean, regulated, and lubricated air to spray guns and actuators for consistent spray quality and tool life In a CNC or precision machining environment, deploy separators and FRL combos to provide dry, stable air to pneumatic clamps and positioning cylinders, supporting repeatable cycles and reduced maintenance Practical notes Exact configurations, port sizes, and mounting styles vary by model Refer to the product datasheet for modelspecific specifications and compatibility details Summary Separators and Filter Regulator Lubricator Combos are designed to improve air quality, stabilize pressure, and extend the life of pneumatic equipment. They provide a practical, integrated solution for keeping compressed air clean and consistent across a range of industrial applications.
