ROSS CONTROLS® Introduces New MD3TM Modular Filter, Regulator and Lubricator Line
These products offer flexibility and broader application abilities
(TROY, MI) - ROSS announces the introduction of the MD3TM line, the latest addition to its filter, regulator and lubricator family. With a compact, modular design and improved flow rates, these products offer flexibility and broader application abilities.
The MD3TM family consists of:
*General purpose filters- 5 or 40 micron filtering elements and superior free water removal (up to 98% efficiency).
*Coalescing filters- 0.3 or 0.01 micron filtering elements, 99.98% free oil particulate removal and 0.3 micron (and up) solid contaminant removal.
*Oil vapor removal (adsorbing) filters- removes all vapor that a coalescing filter leaves behind.
*General purpose regulators- diaphragm type with modular or in-line mounting capability.
* Modular lubricators- lubricates downstream mechanisms by introducing atomized oil into the airline.
*Integrated filter/regulator combination- filter and regulator conveniently packaged together to reduce procurement and installation time.
All MD3™ models come in 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 port sizes with NPTF port threads (or optional BSPP threads). Unique features include convenient locating tabs on the filter and lubricators bowls for tightening accuracy and industry-leading inlet pressure of up to 250 psi on the metal bowl options.
ROSS also offers handy preassembled units such as the Modular Clean Air package with a filter, coalescing filter, and adsorbing filter for applications requiring strictly controlled airline purity. Other packages such as the integral filter/regulator plus lubricator or standard filter, regulator, lubricator combination also offer ease of installation.
