Q1: What is the VF vacuum filter used for?
A: It filters dust/particles in vacuum lines to help protect vacuum-side components and improve system stability.
Q2: What is the key feature of the VF series?
A: It is a flat-type design that connects to high-flow vacuum ports and is designed for easy maintenance.
Q3: Do I need tools or to remove piping to replace the element?
A: No. The element can be replaced tool-free while piping.
Q4: What port sizes/models are available?
A: VF-3 (Rp1/8), VF-5 (Rp1/4), and VF-6 (Rc3/8).
Q5: Can I use the VF on positive pressure (compressed air) lines?
A: Not recommended. The manufacturer states the VF series is for vacuum line only—use only on the vacuum side.
Q6: How should I install it for dusty environments?
A: The manufacturer recommends attaching the filter in the air flow line to protect vacuum equipment under dusty conditions.
Q7: What are the filtration rating and filtration area?
A: The filtration rating is 15 µm; filtration area varies by model: 1100 / 2095 / 2646 mm².
Q8: How do I choose between VF-3/5/6?
A: Choose by your port size and system flow needs; the available ports are Rp1/8, Rp1/4, and Rc3/8.
