Product Overview

This ZFC75-B filter is installed in the vacuum line between a suction cup or fixture and a vacuum source. Dust picked up during handling remains in the filter instead of reaching the Venturi ejector, pump or downstream valving.

The 1,260 mm² filter-size class and 8 mm (5/16 in) tubing ports should be evaluated together: the filter element provides particulate protection while its published 3.9 CFM vacuum-flow rating helps assess pressure loss and whether the component is appropriate for the circuit.

The transparent housing supports visual inspection. The quick-change element can be serviced without removing the entire filter body from the machine, subject to the installation and isolation procedure.

Technical Specifications

Where This Filter Is Used

Point-of-use filtration on vacuum pick-and-place machines, end-of-arm tooling, packaging lines, molding-part transfer systems and other equipment that may pull surface debris into the suction circuit. ZFC75-B is particularly relevant where a 8 mm (5/16 in) flexible tube is already specified.

Its published media are air and nitrogen. It should not be promoted as a process-water or liquid filter.

Flow and Installation Guidance

The 3.9 CFM (110 NL/min) rating is the published vacuum-flow value, not the 9.9 CFM (280 NL/min) positive-flow value; these are separate test conditions. Compare the vacuum-flow requirement of the generator and the restriction allowed by the machine.

Use clean compatible tubing cut squarely to the published 8 mm outside diameter. Secure the mounting bracket, follow the indicated flow direction where marked, and inspect the bowl and element periodically.

Frequently Asked Questions

Selection note: Confirm connections, actual operating conditions and required holding force or filtration performance before final installation. Vacuum generator flow and compressed-air consumption are different measurements; ratings shown are under the published test conditions.
