FRL Unit

Legris and Duncan Air Preparation

FRL Unit – Filter Regulator Lubricator

Filter regulator lubricator units from Parker Legris and Duncan prepare compressed air before it reaches downstream pneumatic equipment. Compare combined FRL and Maxflow configurations, then confirm port size, pressure, flow and drain requirements.

Choose a Filter Regulator and Lubricator

An FRL unit combines air preparation functions in a planned sequence. The filter removes selected contaminants, the regulator controls downstream pressure, and the lubricator introduces oil mist where the equipment manufacturer requires it.

Not every circuit needs lubrication. Confirm the downstream component requirements before selecting a combined filter regulator lubricator.

Source: Duncan Engineering Maxflow technical data. These values apply to the referenced Duncan combinations, not every Parker Legris FRL. Ask IHPC to confirm the exact part code, filtration grade, rated flow and bowl/drain option for your circuit.

Match the air-preparation assembly with Duncan flow control valves, Legris one-touch fittings and PU tubing. Share inlet pressure, target outlet pressure and required flow so these components can be checked together.

How an FRL Unit Prepares Compressed Air

Compressed air enters the filter stage, then passes through pressure regulation. A lubricator, when required, adds a controlled oil mist downstream.

Correct sizing helps maintain pressure and flow while supporting the air-quality needs of valves, cylinders and tools.

1
Port and flow

Size the unit for the required airflow and connection.

2
Pressure range

Confirm inlet and regulated outlet requirements.

3
Filtration and drain

Specify filtration level and manual or automatic drain needs.

4
Lubrication need

Check whether downstream equipment allows or requires oil.

Typical Industrial Applications

Final suitability depends on the complete application and the current manufacturer technical data.

Factory air lines

Point-of-use preparation for pneumatic equipment.

Pneumatic machinery

Conditioned air for valves, cylinders and actuators.

Air tools

Regulated air supply where tool requirements permit.

Maintenance stations

Serviceable air preparation at machine entry points.

FRL Unit FAQs

What does FRL stand for?

FRL stands for filter, regulator and lubricator.

What is the purpose of a filter regulator?

It combines filtration with downstream pressure control. Exact performance depends on the selected unit and flow conditions.

Does every pneumatic system need a lubricator?

No. Some equipment is designed for non-lubricated air. Follow the component manufacturer requirements.

What information is needed to select an FRL unit?

Provide port size, pressure, flow, filtration, drain, bowl and lubrication requirements.
