Where a main line filter goes
Machine-level filters are sized for one set of valves and cylinders. A main line unit sits at the compressor room outlet or at the entry to a building, and has to pass the whole plant demand without creating pressure drop. Undersizing here is expensive in a way that is hard to trace — every machine downstream runs a little low and nobody knows why.
Filtration and drainage
The filter separates bulk water and solid particles carried over from the compressor and the receiver. On a main line the collected volume is significant, so the drain arrangement matters as much as the element — an auto drain is usually specified rather than manual.
Typical use
Compressor room outlet, building or line entry, and ahead of large air preparation sets.
Ordering
Order by the full code AF800-12. Port size, drain type and bracket options are in the code. Replacement elements are ordered separately — tell us the housing code and we will confirm the matching element. The AF900 covers the larger flow range.
