Compressed air plays a critical role in a wide variety of modern industrial applications, from advanced automation to process control and instrumentation. To work at peak efficiency, pneumatic systems rely upon clean air, accurate pressurization, and proper lubrication. Optimal airflow can be compromised by excessive friction and wear.

That’s why many modern pneumatic systems include an air lubricator as the third part of a larger filter, regulator, lubricator (FRL) assembly. The air lubricator sprays a fine mist of lubricating oil into the airflow to protect downstream components. By reducing friction and preventing wear, air lubricators ensure optimal airflow and help to minimize maintenance costs and downtime while maximizing pneumatic system reliability.

DAC Worldwide's Air Lubricator Cutaway (273-250) depicts a common industrial air lubricator frequently used in manufacturing facilities, petro-chemical plants, and other industrial and commercial environments. These common pieces of equipment are also used in instrumentation and process control applications.

The cutaway includes a formed-steel mounting assembly, allowing for stand-alone display, bench-top mounting, or mounting on specialized DAC Worldwide mounting benches and display structures. Through careful sectioning, the complete internal configuration of the air lubricator can be seen, allowing for thorough inspection. All primary features have been retained, allowing for demonstration of common maintenance activities.
