Exotic Automation & Supply’s Filter Carts provide a convenient, portable mode of off-line filtration, flushing & fluid transfer. The cart’s narrow design makes it the ideal choice to easily navigate through tight aisles and passageways.

• Visual indicators, 3-band, both filters
• Pump bypass set at 65psi to prevent motor stalling
• Vane pump, steel wand and solid rubber wheels for durability
• 2 inch drip tray to help prevent spills and increase facility cleanliness

In this white paper, Mark White – Compressed Air Treatment Applications Manager at Parker Hannifin, discusses the effect that ambient oil vapor levels can have on downstream compressed air quality and what to consider when looking for ‘Technically Oil-Free’ compressed air to ISO8573-1 Class 0 or Class 1 for total oil.

Reduce downtime and installation costs! Parker’s FastSeal connection technology is a revolutionary new way to make fast, leak-free O-ring face seal (ORFS) tube connections without the need for brazing or flanging equipment, all you need is a wrench & tube. Learn more here.
