Featuring a 5 micron recleanable element, it efficiently removes oil, water, dirt, and rust to prevent equipment damage and ensure product integrity. With a max supply pressure of 250 PSI and a high flow rate of 74 SCFM at 90 PSI, it supports demanding industrial applications. Its durable polycarbonate bowl with manual drain and included mounting bracket make installation and maintenance straightforward. Made in Korea to OEM standards, this filter is a trusted choice for enhancing air quality and system longevity. ## Description Pneumatic Plus PPF series particulate filters remove harmful oil/water condensate, pipe scale, dirt and rust from your compressed air system. This prevents corrosive damage to compressed air equipment and finished products. Typically, particulate filters are installed upstream of regulators to prevent valve failure. They are also used as pre-filters to oil removing and coalescing filters to insure high efficiency and long element life in applications such as paint spraying, instrumentation and pharmaceuticals. Each filter is equipped with a highly efficient baffling system for maximum bulk liquid and dirt particle removal. The Pneumatic Plus heavy-duty, cleanable porous plastic element removes fine particles. Particle removal can be tailored to specific needs with either the 40 or 5 micron element. An optional 2 micron absolute pleated fiber element is also offered for extra-fine particle removal. The Pneumatic Plus 2 micron absolute element is a high efficiency filter element with solid particulate removal in the 90% efficiency range down to . 28 microns. The Beta efficiency rating is 99. 5%. When used as a pre-filter to a coalescing filter, it will increase the life of the coalescing element by 4 to 6 times. Pneumatic Plus offers quality Air Preparation Units for various pneumatic applications. PPR Series Regulators offer stable air flow with locking adjustment knob to prevent accidental setting changes. PPR Modular Series Regulators can connect to PPF Modular Series Air Filters & PPL Modular Series Air Lubricators using our brackets to form a fully functional FRL unit. PPF Series Filters and PPL Series Lubricators are available for purchase along with other Pneumatic Plus Air Preparation Units. Review: Works great with an aftercooler - I used this in conjunction with a homemade compressor aftercooler and the result is incredible! So good, in fact, that I may have to purchase an automatic-draining unit because otherwise I have to stop what I'm doing and empty it constantly. It's completely full of water after 2-3 fill cycles. The idea here is to cool the air charge as quickly as possible, and as early as possible in the system. When you add an aftercooler and put the dryer between the cooler and tank, it helps to condense and remove the excess moisture long before it reaches the air hose. Since I've done this, I have ZERO moisture coming out of my air tools, and almost zero moisture draining out the bottom of the compressor tank. I have yet to run a paint gun on this setup, but will be doing so soon. For those wondering, the aftercooler setup is simple... a box fan, the largest cheapo transmission cooler I could find, a roll of 3/8 aluminum fuel line, some compression fittings, this dryer, and some creativity. Review: So far so good as airbrush filters - So far so good, bought these to keep water and possible oil out of my airbrush line from a 30 gal oiled compressor. I have the 1/2 post air compressor and the 1/4 at the terminal end. Had to purchase 1/2 in to 1/4 in reducer separately for the half inch model. Posted a pic for size comparison since seller failed to do so for some reason. I’m not sure if this was the issue that others have been complaining about with leaking but the 1/2 leaked from the release valve at first but once it fully pressurized and the rubber seal on the bottom fully seated, it’s now air tight. I tested it out in ~70% humidity, the filter first in line air felt a little moist from the release valve, the second seems completely dry and the air from the brush is completely dry. So I would say definitely worth the purchase. Summer time will be the real test though, will update then if they under-perform ## Features - Max.

It is small that's for sure. *by W***M on August 21, 2020* What I don't like is the fact that the bowl does not screw on. All it has is an O'ring that seals the bowl to the metal housing . I just got it today and to be fair have not installed it yet. I got it because it is just a device to filter out small particles and trap moisture from getting into my few air tools. I have Passche units with a regulator and gauge which don't have the plastic cover over the bowl yet the bowls on the Passche units for air brushes have a thick O'ring and the bowl screws in place. That to me seems much better built. Outside of the regulator and gauge the Passche units bowl is larger has the same 5 micron filter and a much better drain. It is also a metal housing . I'm not sure about the air flow ratings with the regulator wide open or if it's restrictive since this model I just got is designed for no air flow restriction. I can see this as an add on for an air brush if your compressor has a regulator or as an add on after and air brush regulator like the Badger or Passche . My compressor has a regulator and I always used it to control the pressure before the air brush regulator even though the bowl and unit are rated for 135 PSI Max , My compressor only puts out 100 PSI . Once I figure out what the flow is on the Passche unit model R-75 I may use it instead . Basically I just don't like the bowl sealed by a thin O'ring held in place via the gray plastic cover, the bowl is the only outward force to seal the O'ring . I did read a few reviews that mentioned air leaks. The bowls shield is a good idea just in case the bowl ruptures. Not sure I may return it . It looks very similar to the one Ingersoll Rand offers just costs less. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ie/products/45886350-pneumaticplus-ppf3-n02b-compressed-air-particulate-filter-1-4-npt](https://www.desertcart.ie/products/45886350-pneumaticplus-ppf3-n02b-compressed-air-particulate-filter-1-4-npt) --- *Product available on Desertcart Ireland* *Store origin: IE* *Last updated: 2026-06-25*
