Description
The COILHOSE PNEUMATICS 8828MD is a heavy-duty compressed air filter designed to remove particulates from compressed air lines in industrial and commercial pneumatic systems. Built around a sintered bronze filter element with a 40-micron rating, it captures contaminants before they reach downstream tools, valves, and equipment. The cast aluminum body and aluminum bowl are built for durability in demanding shop and production environments. An automatic drain eliminates the need for manual bowl draining, reducing maintenance time. A built-in sight glass allows technicians to monitor bowl liquid levels without disassembly. This filter is installed by industrial maintenance technicians and pipefitters working on compressed air distribution systems.
The 8828MD fits into compressed air supply lines where consistent air quality is critical to equipment performance and longevity. Its 1-inch NPT end connections make it compatible with standard threaded pipe and fitting systems. The 23-ounce bowl capacity handles meaningful condensate accumulation between service intervals. Series 88 construction is suited for heavier-flow applications in manufacturing facilities, automotive shops, and industrial process environments where larger line sizes are common and air quality requirements are strict.
Key Features
- 40-micron sintered bronze filter element removes particulates from compressed air
- Automatic drain eliminates manual condensate removal
- Sight glass allows visual bowl level inspection without disassembly
- Cast aluminum body and aluminum bowl for durability in industrial environments
- 1-inch NPT end connections fit standard threaded pipe systems
- 23-ounce bowl capacity for extended service intervals between draining cycles
Compatibility
Designed as an OEM-style inline filter for compressed air supply lines using 1-inch NPT threaded connections, typical of Series 88 heavy-duty pneumatic filtration applications.
Installation Notes
Installation is performed by licensed pipefitters or qualified industrial maintenance technicians familiar with compressed air systems. Depressurize and lock out the compressed air supply before installing or servicing this filter. Apply thread sealant appropriate for pneumatic service to all NPT connections and verify there are no leaks before returning the system to pressure. Mount the filter in an upright orientation so the bowl hangs downward, allowing the automatic drain to function correctly.
