Overview
The Pneumatic Products HEF800AF is a particulate filter designed to protect compressed air systems by removing solid particles, water droplets, and other contaminants. A particulate filter, also known as an after-filter, is usually located just after the desiccant air dryer to remove harmful liquid oil, water condensate, pipe scale, dirt and rust from compressed air systems. This helps prevents contaminants & corrosive damage to compressed air equipment and finished products. Made in Ireland, this filter features a manual bowl drain for convenient maintenance and inspection.
Key Features
