Air Filters
Boston Gear's Air Filters are designed for general applications in compressed air systems where effective filtration and removal of solid water particles and impurities are required. Order filters with an automatic drain when the filter will be installed in an inaccessible area and when large quantities of water are present.Water vapor will pass through these filters and could condense into liquid form downstream as the air temperature drops. An air dryer would be required if water condensation could have a detrimental effect on the application.

Oil Removal Filters
Boston Gear's oil removal (coalescing) filters are used in compressed air systems to provide an extremely clean air supply virtually free of oil aerosols. Unwanted oil is often introduced into compressed air systems by the lubricating oil in the air compressor. Typical applications include paint spraying, pneumatic control instrumentation, printing and paper separation and protection of air bearings and fluidic instrumentation. Oil removal filters are supplied with an automatic drain and a service life indicator as standard features. The service life indicator provides visual indication of the condition of the filter element, eliminating the guesswork of when to replace the element. The indicator shows green when new and as the pressure differential across the element increases it will turn to red. To ensure that the filter element provides a long service life, it is recommended that a standard air filter with a 5 micron element is placed prior to the oil removal filter.

Regulators
Boston Gear's pressure regulators are used in compressed air systems to reduce system pressure to a level which can be used to efficiently operate air tools and other air operated equipment. These regulators maintain the reduced pressure at a constant level despite the changes in the inlet pressure and changes in downstream flow requirements. All regulators are relieving which allow the outlet pressure to be reduced even though the system is dead-ended. Nonrelieving models are available.

Lubricators
Boston Gear Lubricators are used in compressed air systems to provide the proper amount of lubrication required for downstream components. Two styles of lubricators are available, the Standard and Micro-Lube. Each has its own characteristics as described below.
