If your system already has pressure regulation handled elsewhere and you just need clean air at the main line or at a specific point of use, this is the simpler, lower-cost option compared to the C-FRS10 filter\/regulator combo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 180 CFM flow and 250 PSI maximum inlet pressure, the C-FS10 handles the output of large industrial and commercial compressors on a 1-inch main line. The 5-micron element stops solid contaminants — pipe scale, rust, particulate — before they reach downstream equipment. The 11-ounce bowl captures liquid water and oil carryover for manual draining.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat This Unit Does\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5-Micron Particulate Filtration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rated at 5 microns — stops pipe scale, rust particles, airborne dust, and solid debris.

Downstream pressure equals inlet pressure minus pressure drop across the filter element. If you need pressure regulation at this point, use the C-FRS10 instead.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1\" NPT Female Connections:\u003c\/strong\u003e Threads directly to 1-inch pipe or fittings — no adapters needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere It Fits in the Air System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstall on the main feed line downstream of the compressor tank and any aftercooler or refrigerated dryer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse upstream of a Castair coalescing filter when oil mist removal is required. The C-CF10 is the 1-inch coalescer — it needs a 5-micron prefilter to protect the coalescing element. The C-FS10 fills that role when you already have pressure regulation handled elsewhere.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso appropriate as a point-of-use filter at high-demand stations where a dedicated regulator is already installed at the tool or machine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCastair Particulate Filter Lineup\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eC-FM14 (1\/4\" Mini):\u003c\/strong\u003e 150 PSI max, 38 CFM, 1.5 oz bowl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eC-FS12 (1\/2\" Std.):\u003c\/strong\u003e 250 PSI max, 140 CFM, 8.5 oz bowl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eC-FS34 (3\/4\" Std.):\u003c\/strong\u003e 250 PSI max, 160 CFM, 8.5 oz bowl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eC-FS10 (1\" Std.):\u003c\/strong\u003e 250 PSI max, 180 CFM, 11 oz bowl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFS114 (1 1\/4\"):\u003c\/strong\u003e 250 PSI max, 390 CFM, 16 oz bowl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFS112 (1 1\/2\"):\u003c\/strong\u003e 250 PSI max, 390 CFM, 16 oz bowl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFilter vs. Filter\/Regulator — Which Do You Need?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf your system has a single regulated pressure zone and all equipment runs at the same pressure, a filter-only unit like the C-FS10 keeps it simple and saves money over the combo.
