Is the Compressed air filter with reducer (filterreducer) FR, BIT series compatible with upstream pressures above 13 bar or limited to supply pressure up to 13 bar?

The Compressed air filter with reducer (filterreducer) FR, BIT series is specified with a maximum supply pressure of up to 13 bar. Therefore it is limited to upstream pressures â¤13 bar and is not rated for continuous use with upstream pressures above 13 bar. Using it with supply pressures higher than 13 bar would exceed the declared specification and is not recommended for safety and performance reasons.

Can the Compressed air filter with reducer (filterreducer) FR, BIT series be installed inline with high-temperature compressed air sources?

No. The Compressed air filter with reducer (filterreducer) FR, BIT series has a maximum operating temperature of +50Â°C, so it should not be installed inline with high-temperature compressed air sources that exceed this limit. Installing it in contact with air hotter than +50Â°C risks damage to the shaped membrane, seals and internal components, impaired regulation/filtration performance and shortened service life. If your process uses temperatures above +50Â°C, cool the air (aftercooler/intermediate piping) or select a regulator/filter rated for higher temperatures.

Does the Compressed air filter with reducer (filterreducer) FR, BIT series require specific mounting orientation for proper condensate drainage?

Compressed air filter with reducer (filterreducer) FR, BIT series does require correct mounting orientation to ensure proper condensate drainage. Install the unit vertically with the bowl (condensate chamber) pointing downward so condensate can collect and be discharged by the selected drain type (manual, semi-automatic RMSA, or automatic SAC). Avoid mounting the filter horizontally or upside down, as this impairs separation and drainage performance and may reduce filter life or cause malfunction. Also ensure sufficient clearance below the drain for operation and servicing and fit the unit close to the actuating devices or decentralized system as recommended.
