Wilkerson F18-02-SG00B Air Filter 1/4 in Npt Series 18

Product Description

The WILKERSON F18-02-SG00B is a general-purpose compressed air filter designed to remove particulate contamination from pneumatic system supply lines. It accepts a 1/4-inch NPT port connection and delivers up to 50 standard cubic feet per minute (SCFM) of filtered airflow. The filter uses sintered polyethylene media to capture solid particles before they reach downstream equipment such as valves, actuators, and instrumentation. The polycarbonate bowl with nylon bowl guard allows visual inspection of collected liquid and debris. An automatic drain eliminates the need for manual bowl draining during normal operation. Licensed HVAC and industrial maintenance technicians working on compressed air distribution systems are the typical installers.

The F18-02-SG00B is suited for general-purpose compressed air filtration in light industrial and commercial applications. It fits into Series 18 modular filter-regulator-lubricator assemblies, allowing it to be combined with other Series 18 components in a modular inline configuration. Typical installations include point-of-use filtration on pneumatic tool drops, control panel air supply lines, and instrument air branches where clean, dry air is required. The 1/4-inch NPT end connections are standard for small-bore compressed air distribution in both residential and light commercial settings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with compressed air system service. Depressurize and lock out the air supply line before installing or servicing this filter. Install with the bowl oriented downward to allow proper automatic drain function and debris collection. Verify all NPT thread connections are properly sealed with thread sealant rated for compressed air service per applicable codes.
