• Reliable sealing capability up to 16 bar

The precision die-cast manufacturing process ensures consistent dimensional accuracy and structural integrity throughout the product lifecycle.

Multiple Filtration Grades Available

To meet different compressed air quality requirements, the ACF Filter is available with several filter element configurations.

C Grade Pre Filter – 5 Micron

The C-grade filter element removes larger particles such as rust, dust, and pipe scale. It is commonly used as the first stage of air treatment systems to protect downstream filtration equipment.

T Grade After Filter – 1 Micron

The T-grade element provides intermediate filtration and removes smaller contaminants that pass through the pre-filter stage, improving overall air quality.

A Grade Fine Filter – 0.01 Micron

Designed for precision applications, the A-grade filter effectively captures fine particles and oil aerosols, helping maintain clean compressed air for sensitive pneumatic equipment.

F Grade Micron Filter – 0.01 Micron

The F-grade filter delivers ultra-fine filtration performance and is suitable for applications requiring higher levels of contaminant removal.

H Grade Activated Carbon Filter – 0.01 Micron

The H-grade element combines particle filtration with activated carbon adsorption technology to remove oil vapors, odors, and hydrocarbon contaminants from compressed air systems.
