Compressed Air Treatment (FRL)

Filters, regulators, and lubricators provide stable supply of clean, dry, properly pressurized compressed air. Achieve optimal air quality from compressor room to point of use.

Prevost Compressed Air Treatment FRL Unit

Compressed Air Treatment System (FRL)

Prevost's compressed air treatment system consists of Filters (F), Regulators (R), and Lubricators (L). It delivers optimal air treatment tailored to each application, from the compressor room to the point of use.

It removes moisture, oil, and particles from compressed air to provide stable supply of clean, dry, properly pressurized air. This contributes to extending air tool life, improving paint quality, and preventing equipment failures. High-performance filtration compatible with ISO 8573-1 air quality standards meets the demands of every industry.

Why Compressed Air Treatment Is Needed

Three contamination sources lurk in compressed air

💧

Moisture

Air compressed by the compressor contains large amounts of water vapor. Condensation during cooling causes corrosion inside piping and air tool failures.

🛢

Oil

Compressor lubricating oil mixes into the air as mist. This causes paint defects and poses food hygiene risks.

🌫

Particles

Rust and scale from inside piping, along with dust from ambient air, contaminate compressed air. This adversely affects precision equipment and quality control.

Product Features

🔍

High-Performance Filters

Capture particles down to 0.01 um. Activated carbon filters also remove oil vapor. Multi-stage filtration achieves air quality tailored to each application.

🎯

Precision Regulators

Provide stable secondary pressure. Suppress pressure fluctuations to maximize air tool performance. Equipped with highly visible pressure gauges.

Automatic Lubricators

Automatically supply optimal amounts of lubricating oil to air tools. Extend tool life and reduce maintenance costs.

💧

Drain Processing

Automatic drain traps discharge condensate automatically. Combined with oil-water separators for environmentally conscious wastewater treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should the filters be replaced?

It depends on the operating environment, but generally every 6 months to 1 year. Models with differential pressure indicators allow you to visually check when replacement is needed.

Where is the optimal installation location for FRL units?

In addition to the main filter at the compressor room outlet, we recommend installing at each point of use. Two-stage filtration ensures higher air quality.

Can it be used in food factories?

Yes. We offer food-grade filter elements and food-grade oil for lubricators. Air quality management based on ISO 8573-1 is possible.
