{"product_id":"castair-fs114","title":"Castair FS114","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Castair FS114 is a 1-1\/4\" NPT inline particulate filter rated for 390 CFM at up to 250 PSI. It removes solid contaminants — rust scale, pipe debris, compressor particulates — down to 5 microns from the compressed air stream before the air reaches tools, spray equipment, or process air applications. The 16-ounce bowl holds collected contamination between drain cycles. This is a high-flow filter sized for industrial and large commercial shop air systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere This Filter Fits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 1-1\/4\" NPT connection and 390 CFM flow capacity puts the FS114 in large shop and light industrial territory. Think 30-75 HP rotary screw compressors, large multi-drop shop air systems, or production facilities with high air consumption. If your main air distribution line is 1-1\/4\", the FS114 is the correct main-line particulate filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 16oz bowl capacity is appropriate for this flow rate — on a high-volume system, contaminants accumulate faster than on small shop filters. Castair offers auto float drain valves (AFD3 with 1\/4\" NPT, AFD1 with 1\/8\" NPT) that eliminate manual bowl draining on main-line installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e FS114\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet\/Outlet Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-1\/4\" NPT (standard)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum PSI:\u003c\/strong\u003e 250 PSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 390 CFM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFiltration Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 micron (particulate)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBowl Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilter Element:\u003c\/strong\u003e EK602VB (shared with FS112)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFS114 vs. FS112 — Connection Size Is the Only Difference\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese two filters are identical in performance — same bowl size, same 390 CFM flow rating, same 5-micron element, same 250 PSI rating.

It does not remove oil aerosols or water vapor. For spray painting, instrument air, or oil-sensitive applications, you need a Castair coalescing filter (C-CF series, 0.01 micron) downstream of the FS114. Always run a particulate filter upstream of a coalescing filter — the coalescing element is not designed for heavy solid contamination loads and will plug rapidly without the pre-filter in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAuto Drain Options\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAFD3\u003c\/strong\u003e — THB Bowl Auto Float Drain, 1\/4\" NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAFD1\u003c\/strong\u003e — Watts Bowl Auto Float Drain, 1\/8\" NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen Does a Shop Need This\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMain-line particulate filtration on a large shop air system with 1-1\/4\" mains\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-filter upstream of a coalescing filter for oil-free air applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement for a failed or undersized filter on a high-flow air system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndustrial or production air systems where solid contaminants cannot reach the process\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Buy From OEM Diagnostic Tools?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOEM Diagnostic Tools has supplied professional shop equipment and components since 2016.
