FXE10A-10AM1

FXE10A-10AM1 is a combination air regulator and filter. It combines the functionality of a regulator, filter, and lubricator into one unit. It is widely used as an essential component in controlling the pressure, direction, and velocity of air in pneumatically powered systems. The unit is usually installed just prior to the actuating devices.

General Description

The FXE10A-10AM1 is designed with the capability to control both the pressure and flow of air. The unit employs two stages of pressure regulation. The first stage is designed to regulate the pressure from 0.5 to 10 bar (7.25 to 145 psig). The second stage is designed to regulate the flow from 0.7 to 10 l/min (24 scfm). The unit is equipped with a standard pressure relief valve to protect the system in case of overpressure.

Application Field

The FXE10A-10AM1 has a wide range of applications including pneumatic systems, air compressors, bottling plants, food processing, and many other industrial applications. It can be used to regulate pressure, velocity, and direction of air for a variety of purposes such as controlling the speed of valves and actuators, controlling the rate of fill and discharge, and cushioning against shock and abrasion.

Working Principle

The FXE10A-10AM1 is designed to provide precise control of the pressure and flow of air. The unit employs two separate valves, one for pressure regulation and one for flow regulation. The pressure valve is located in the outlet chamber of the unit and is designed to regulate the pressure from 0.5 to 10 bar (7.25 to 145 psig). The flow valve is located in the inlet chamber and controls the flow rate from 0.7 to 10 l/min (24 scfm).

The unit also utilizes a standard pressure relief valve for added safety. This valve is located at the outlet chamber and is designed to protect the system from overpressure. When the pressure exceeds a set point, the valve will open and allow the excess pressure to escape.

Conclusion

The FXE10A-10AM1 is a versatile and effective air regulator and filter. It combines the functionality of a regulator, filter, and lubricator into one unit making it ideal for applications such as pneumatic systems, air compressors, bottling plants, food processing, and many other industrial applications. The unit provides precise control of both the pressure and flow of air and is equipped with a standard pressure relief valve for added safety. With its wide range of applications and user-friendly design, the FXE10A-10AM1 is an excellent choice for any pneumatically powered system.
