KMC Controls HFO-0006 Control Air Filter
The KMC Controls HFO-0006 is an industrial-grade inline pneumatic air filter designed to maintain high-purity air supply in sensitive HVAC control systems. This essential component features a 25-micron filtration rating, effectively capturing particulates and pipe scale that can cause costly damage to pneumatic thermostats and secondary control devices. Engineered with a durable plastic housing, the HFO-0006 supports a maximum operating pressure of 150 psi and a wide temperature range from -20??F to 150??F, making it suitable for demanding mechanical room environments.
For technicians managing multi-zone pneumatic automation, ensuring clean, dry air is non-negotiable. This filter utilizes a simple 3/16 inch barbed connection (often referred to as 1/4" NPT equivalent in specific manifold setups) for rapid installation between the main supply line and the controller. By preventing orifice clogging and internal seal scoring, the HFO-0006 pneumatic filter extends the service life of pneumatic actuators and prevents system-wide performance degradation. This product is typically supplied in a convenient 5-pack to ensure your service truck remains stocked for routine maintenance cycles.
Key Benefits- High-Efficiency Filtration: The 25-micron filter element protects precision calibrated orifices from dust, rust, and moisture-borne contaminants.
- Broad Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with KMC, Honeywell, and Johnson Controls pneumatic HVAC systems.
- Pressure Resilience: Rated for up to 150 psi, ensuring reliability even during high-pressure system surges.
- Compact Inline Design: Low-profile footprint allows for easy mounting in tight enclosures or control panels.
- Industrial Durability: Robust plastic construction resists corrosion and environmental stress in mechanical rooms.
How do I know when the HFO-0006 needs replacement?
Technicians should inspect the filter periodically for visible darkening or debris accumulation. Dramatic pressure drops across the line often indicate the element is saturated.
Is this filter compatible with 1/4 inch tubing?
The HFO-0006 is designed for 3/16" ID tubing, which is the standard for most pneumatic branching into secondary controls. Always check your tubing diameter before installation.
Can these filters be cleaned and reused?
No. These are disposable inline air filters. Cleaning may compromise the integrity of the 25-micron media, potentially allowing contaminants into the rest of the pneumatic loop.
