Festo Fine Filter - G1/4''

The primary function is to remove oil aerosols and fine contaminants down to 1 µm from compressed air, protecting downstream equipment.

The maximum operating pressure for this Festo MS4-LFM-1/4-BRM fine filter is 14 bar.

The filter can operate in ambient temperatures ranging from -10 °C to +60 °C.

Replace the filter element when you notice a significant drop in airflow, increased pressure drop, or if visual inspection reveals heavy contamination that cannot be easily cleaned. Refer to the product manual for recommended replacement intervals.

The 'BRM' typically indicates the type of drain mechanism. In this context, it likely refers to a manual drain function.

This fine filter is effective at removing oil *aerosols* (liquid droplets). For removing oil *vapor*, an activated carbon filter would be more appropriate.

The pneumatic connection size is G1/4.

This model may feature manual draining. Ensure you are following the correct manual draining procedure for your specific unit, or check if a different model with automatic draining is required.

Check for incorrect installation direction or a clogged filter element. If the element is clogged, replace it.

The 1 µm filter may not be sufficient for your application's needs. Consider a finer filtration grade (e.g., 0.01 µm) or an activated carbon filter for oil vapor removal.
