Monnier air line filters are built to ensure solid and liquid
contaminants are removed from compressed air. All Monnier filters
are emgineered with the exclusive Whirl-Away design which
creates high centrifugal force with low pressure drop. The whirling
action forces all liquids and solids against the bowl wall causing
them to run down below the quiet-zone baffle where they can be
1
drained out. The air then flows through the elements where the
smaller particles are removed and the filtered air passes
downstream. The leak proof drain valve has an 'O' ring seal that
can be opened and closed without tools.
For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions
(IM-P504-12) supplied with the product.
Warning:
Polycarbonate bowls are attacked by phosphate ester fluids,
solvents, paint thinners and carbon tetrachloride. These and similar
substances should never be allowed to come into contact with the
bowl. Certain synthetic and standard compressor lubricating oils
also contain additives harmful to polycarbonate and, where there is
any doubt we recommend, in the interests of safety, that a metal
bowl or a bowl guard should be fitted.
Installation note:
Fit into a horizontal pipeline with the air flow in the direction of the
arrow and the bowl vertically downwards, as close as possible to
the equipment it is protecting.
Example: 1 off IF2AM Monnier international compressed air filter
having a female 1⁄2" screwed BSP (BS 21 - Rp) connection.
Note 1: The product will be supplied with a 5 μm element and
polycarbonate bowl as standard. If a metal bowl is required (with or
without sight level) it must be clearly specified on the order. The
IF2M manual drain is available with metal bowl only.
Note 2: If any optional extras are required, they must be clearly
specified on the order.
