Overview
The Vortec 701S-24A is a precision auto-drain compressed air filter designed for industrial pneumatic, hydraulic, and cooling applications. This 5 micron water/particulate filter removes contaminants and moisture from compressed air supplies, ensuring clean air delivery to downstream equipment. With a maximum flow capacity of 25 SCFM and 3/8″ NPT female connections, the 701S-24A is ideal for equipment requiring precise air purity and protection from system corrosion and component wear.
Key Features
- 5 micron filtration – Removes water droplets and particulates in a single stage
- Auto-drain design – Automatically expels collected moisture without manual intervention
- 3/8″ NPT (F) ports – Standard industrial pipe thread for quick installation
- 25 SCFM rated capacity – Suitable for small to medium pneumatic systems
- 250 PSI rated – Compatible with standard industrial compressed air systems
- Compact, lightweight construction – Easy mounting and minimal footprint
