Specify the details
that affect fit and function.
Select the body format
Compare port size and bowl capacity for the individual model. The same nominal port can occur on both body formats, so check dimensions and service space.
Choose combined or separate functions
AFR/BFR integrates filtration and regulation. AFC/BFC adds lubrication to that unit, while AC/BC uses separate filter, regulator and lubricator components.
Specify condensate handling
State the drain required and confirm the option on the selected model. Include the operating cycle and maintenance access.
Define thread and pressure duty
The model tables identify G-thread ports. State any different thread requirement explicitly, together with inlet pressure, outlet setpoint, temperature and required flow.
Include in your requirement
- Required air flow
- Port size and thread
- Inlet and regulated pressure
- Filtration grade
- Drain arrangement
- Lubrication requirement
- Available installation space
Select flow at the required working pressure and allowable pressure drop. Confirm drain type, bowl protection and mounting dimensions for the chosen model. Replacement dimensions and accessories require model-specific confirmation.
Questions about a/b series frl units.
How do the A and B bodies differ?
A variants use the smaller body and bowl arrangement; B variants use the larger arrangement. Compare the exact model rather than selecting only by pipe size.
Which components form AFC and AC assemblies?
AFC/BFC combines AFR/BFR and AL/BL. AC/BC combines AF/BF, AR/BR and AL/BL as separate components.
How should I specify the drain?
Provide the exact model and drain operation. Include whether the circuit stays pressurized continuously or is regularly depressurized, plus maintenance access.
Can G ports accept R or NPT fittings?
Specify the mating thread and sealing arrangement exactly. G, R and NPT are different thread forms and must not be assumed interchangeable.
