Automatic-Drain Compressed Air Separators
A float-operated drain valve on these separators automatically opens when the bowl begins to fill. The first step in water removal, use one of these separators to remove the large amount of water as compressed air cools, preventing equipment damage and wear caused by moisture. Install in your air line after compressors and aftercoolers.

High-Flow Compressed Air Separators
These separators have higher flow rates compared to our other compressed air separators. Prevent equipment damage and wear caused by moisture in your compressed air supply. The first step in water removal, use one of these separators to remove the large amount of water created as compressed air cools. A float-operated drain valve automatically opens when the bowl begins to fill. Install separators in your air line after compressors and aftercoolers..

Heavy Duty Compressed Air Filters for Particle Removal
Use these filters where high water and dirt removal is needed—they have a two-layer filter element made of stainless steel wire mesh and cotton/polyester packing. Filters clean your compressed air to extend the service life of air-powered tools and equipment.

Two-Stage Compressed Air Filters for Coarse and Fine Particle Removal
Get two stages of filtration—the first stage removes most particles and water droplets; the second captures any remaining particles and water droplets down to 5 microns. Use these filters to clean your compressed air to extend the service life of air-powered tools and equipment.
Replacement filter element kits include first- and second-stage filter elements, a base core, a base gasket, and four cap gaskets.

High-Discharge Compressed Air Filters for Particle Removal
An automatic drain discharges up to 300 gallons per hour to handle compressed air with high moisture content. Filters extend the service life of air-powered tools and equipment by removing particles and water droplets from your compressed air.

Desiccant Compressed Air Dryer/Filters for Oil and Particle Removal
These dryer/filters have a clay desiccant that removes moisture, oil, and particles, so there’s no need to install a separate filter and dryer. Once aftercoolers and separators have removed the bulk of the water, they remove any remaining moisture in your air line. Dryer/filters have a clear bowl or sight glass that allow you to see inside to monitor the contents. When the desiccant becomes saturated, it changes color to indicate that it should be replaced.
Dryer/filters with an aluminum bowl stand up to synthetic compressor lubricants and solvents better than dyers with an acrylic plastic bowl can.

Desiccant Compressed Air Dryers
Once aftercoolers and separators have removed the bulk of the water, use these dryers to remove any remaining moisture in your air line. To reuse saturated desiccant, heat it at its reactivation temperature until it returns to its dry desiccant color. Install after an oil filter to protect the desiccant.
Dryers with a clear bowl and dryers with a sight glass allow you to see inside to monitor contents.
Dryers with a metal bowl are more durable and stand up to vapor better than dryers with a plastic bowl.
