This filter regulator (FR) combines two functions. The filter removes water, dirt and other harmful particles larger than 40 μm for your air system. The pressure regulator adjusts the pressure continuously to a stable level, even when the input pressure varies. The level can be adjusted between 1 – 8.5 bar. This model has G 1/4″ ports. The maximum flow rate is 3200 l/min. Please note that the maximum flow rate alone doesn’t provide enough information to properly size your filter regulator. Use the flow curve to determine if the pressure drop (droop) within your expected flow rate range is acceptable. The flow curve shows the flow rate for a set input pressure with multiple output pressures. For each output pressure, it can be seen how the pressure changes with increasing flow rate. It is recommended to use the device in the flat range of the curve, and not on the beginning or the end of the curve. Note that the pressure regulator controls the output pressure, not the flow rate. The output pressure can be adjusted by pulling the hand wheel up and twisting. The output pressure can be locked after adjustment by pushing the hand wheel back in. The max input pressure is 15 bar and the temperature range is between -5 and 60 °C. The filter is rated for 40 microns, meaning it will not allow contaminants larger than this through. To empty, it has a semi-auto condensate drain with a drain capacity of 70 cm3. The housing material is made out of aluminium and the filter has a bowl made of Polycarbonate (PC). It has a position indicator to see the bowl level. It has a mounting bracket to mount it to a wall or your machine.
Pros:
- Combines two functions (filtering & pressure regulating) in one, compact device
- It has a semi-auto condensate drain to reduce maintenance cost
- It has a mounting bracket to mount it to a wall or your machine
Cons:
- It has a semi-auto condensate drain, which is suited for systems that are regularly depressurized. In some other cases, automatic condensate drains might be preferred
MAFR401 series
Our range of high quality Mindman filters, regulators, and/or lubricators treat your pneumatic air to maintain proper air quality, reduce equipment down time, and reduce operating costs when installed correctly. The function can be derived from the series name. MAFR represent filter-regulators, MAF filters, MAR pressure regulators, MACP FRL units, and MAL lubricators. Higher numbers in the series (e.g. MAFR501) typically represent higher flow rates. They can be purchased individually, or as a combined it, such as an air filter regulator (FR) or an air filter regulator lubricator combo (FRL). Varying options of filter mesh sizes, operating pressure ranges, pressure adjustment ranges, flow rate, lockability, and drainage options are available. Mindman is a global leader in the pneumatics industry and manufacturers a wide range of high quality pneumatic products. They follow strict manufacturing standards (ISO 9001) and verify their end products with numerous testing and calibration steps to ensure they meet specifications. You can be assured of high quality, efficiency, life cycle and excellent cost to performance ratio for these air treatment units.
