1.1 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Filter/regulators combine the features of a filter and
regulator with a single compact body.
Air passes through the filter section first
removing water and particle contaminants, and is
then regulated by the top regulator section.
See individual filter and regulator sections
for details.
1.2 PERFORMANCE
CHARACTERISTICS
The regulator section of the filter/regulator
determines the flow and regulation characteristics of
the unit.
Flow is therefore measured in terms of
pressure droop from set pressure (see regulators)
and not flow versus pressure drop as in a filter.
Regulation characteristics are determined
in the same way as regulators.
