It is also possible to use each component individually. These individual units can combine into one unit to ensure clean air in a pneumatic system. View our online selection of filters, regulators & lubricators!Īn FRL unit comprises a filter (F), regulator (R), and lubricator (L).
improving an air system's service life, safety, and reliability.requiring compliance with ISO, OSHA, ASHRA, or other air quality standards.Filters, regulators, and lubricators can be bought individually or as a package (as seen in Figure 1) depending on the need for components to meet the proper air specifications for downstream equipment. The air supplied by compressors is often contaminated, over-pressurized, and non-lubricated, meaning an FRL unit is required to prevent damage to equipment. They are lubricated, if necessary, to ensure proper pneumatic component operation, which increases their operational lifetime. Filter, regulator, and lubricator (FRL) units in compressed air systems deliver clean air at a fixed pressure.
