Festo LFR
Festo LFR
Characteristics
At a glance
Space-saving design with filter and regulator in a single device.
• Two pressure gauge connections for variable installation
• Sizes Mini, Midi, Maxi
Pneumatic connection
Individual fittings can be connected via connecting plates with female threads.
Version
Grade of filtration
Grade of filtration of 5 µm or 40 µm can be selected.
Pressure gauge
The filter regulator can be ordered with or without a pressure gauge. The interface has a thread of 1/4 NPT or 1/8 NPT.
Function
Direct or pilot actuated pressure regulator with or without integrated return flow function.
The condensate is separated; then the compressed air is filtered. The output pressure is adjustable within the pressure range.
Condensate drain
The following functions can be selected:
• Manual
• Fully automatic, normally closed
