Safety instructions related to the product
and technology
W
Lay cables and lines so that they cannot be damaged and
no one can trip over them.
W
Do not operate the product in aggressive ambient air or allow
it to come into contact with aggressive media.
The substances listed as examples in the following table,
which contain solvents in various concentrations, can lead to
an aggressive ambient air/compressed air in the application
area of compressed air preparation devices and in the suction
area of air compressors.
Solvents:
Acetone, paint thinners, alcohols, ester
Detergents:
Trichloroethylene, perchlorethylene,
benzene, gasoline
Other media:
Synthetic oils, drilling oil, high-alloyed oils,
certain compressor oils, brake fluid,
ammonia, bonding and sealing agents,
plasticizers, anti-freeze, coolants/
lubricants
A pressurized polycarbonate reservoir may corrode
in an aggressive ambient air/compressed air and explode
as a result.
If the presence of the substances stated in the table cannot
be avoided, such as in gluing machines or vulcanization
plants, the use of metal reservoirs is required.
W
If a lubricator is used, please only use a suitable pneumatic oil,
see online catalog (www.aventics.com/pneumatics-catalog).
W
No soiling may be allowed to collect on or in the filters,
reservoirs or windows. Replace reservoirs if soiling cannot
be removed from the drain (drain may become clogged).
Also observe the "Customer information on material
resistance in compressed air preparation"
(MNR R412025273).

About this product
Standard filter FLS, pre-filter FLP, micro-filter FLC and active
carbon filter FLA are components of maintenance units:
W
Standard filter FLS: Solid impurities and condensate are
removed from the compressed air by centrifugal force
and filtration.
W
Pre-filter FLP and micro-filter FLC: Suitable for very high
standards in compressed air purity.
W
Active carbon filter FLA: Filters out odors from the compressed
air. The oil vapor molecules in the compressed air are absorbed.
