The latest addition to Parker Hannifin's innovative Moduflex modular air preparation system is the new Moduflex 80 range of products. These extend the versatility and convenience of the state of the art FRL system to applications that involve large air volumes, and require 1/2in, 3/4in and 1in ports. Ideal for use in factory pneumatic ring-main installations, the Moduflex 80 range includes filters, lubricators and regulators, as well as comprehensive series of accessories.

Individual components can be quickly assembled in almost any combination, to produce efficient, economical and easy-to-maintain air preparation systems which are exactly matched to their users' needs.

A key feature of the Moduflex 80 range, in common with other products which make up the FRL system, is its use of Parker's novel Cliplok fasteners.

These allow combinations of components to be assembled without the use of tools, in less than half the time needed with conventional systems.

The Cliplok system also eliminates the need for extra items such as pipe connectors and, since the individual components mount directly face-to-face without intermediate blocks, it produces exceptionally compact assemblies.

Further, the Cliplok system allows individual components to be easily removed or exchanged, greatly facilitating maintenance.

Filters in the Moduflex 80 range are available in standard versions with high-efficiency 5and#8209;micron or optional 40-micron filter elements, as well as in coalescing and adsorption versions for special applications.

Adsorption filters have manual drains, while standard and coalescing types can be supplied with manual, semi-automatic or automatic drains.

The unique filter element cartridge design facilitates rapid element change over without the use of tools, a real bonus for maintenance engineers.

Moduflex 80 lubricators are designed to provide constant density lubrication, and feature a large oil reservoir together with fingertip ratchet control for precise oil-rate adjustment.

With a rolling diaphragm and a balanced valve design, regulators in the range are available with secondary pressure ranges of 2, 4, 8 and 16 bar.

Options include padlockable and tamper-proofing kits.
