Parker P3YFA98ESAN Compressed Air Filter 1 in Npt 170 Scfm

Product Description

The PARKER P3YFA98ESAN is a particulate compressed air filter designed to remove solid contaminants from compressed air lines in industrial and commercial pneumatic systems. Rated at 170 standard cubic feet per minute (SCFM) with a 5-micron sintered polyethylene filter media, it delivers consistent particulate removal at a 1 inch NPT port connection. The aluminum body and polypropylene bowl with bowl guard handle the mechanical and chemical demands of typical shop-air and process-air environments. An automatic drain and integrated sight glass simplify service intervals. Licensed contractors and maintenance technicians install this filter as part of compressed air treatment trains protecting pneumatic tools, valves, and process equipment.

The P3YFA98ESAN belongs to the Parker P3Y Series and is suited for residential shop setups, light industrial facilities, and commercial pneumatic distribution systems requiring reliable particulate filtration. The modular connection design allows inline integration with other P3Y Series components such as regulators and lubricators to build a complete filter-regulator-lubricator (FRL) assembly. The 1 inch NPT end connections match standard compressed air piping found across most trade applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed pipefitters, millwrights, or qualified maintenance technicians. Depressurize and lock out the compressed air supply before installing or servicing this filter. Apply thread sealant to NPT fittings per facility standards and applicable plumbing or mechanical codes. Orient the bowl downward as designed to allow proper automatic drain operation and condensate removal.
