PneumaticPlus SAW400-N04BG-MEP Air Filter Regulator Combo | 1/2" NPT, 106 SCFM, 10 Micron | Metal Bowl, Manual Drain
The PneumaticPlus SAW400-N04BG-MEP is a piggyback compressed air filter regulator designed to deliver clean, regulated compressed air at the point of use for pneumatic tools, automation equipment, and industrial compressed air systems.
This 1/2" NPT air filter regulator combo provides 10 micron particulate filtration, a 0–150 PSI standard operating range, and a manual drain metal bowl for applications requiring added durability in harsher environments. A 0–150 PSI gauge and bracket are included.
Common Applications & Use Cases
The SAW400-N04BG-MEP is commonly used in 1/2" NPT compressed air lines where filtration and pressure control are needed, but a metal bowl is preferred for improved resistance in tougher service conditions.
- Industrial compressed air systems: Helps support cleaner, regulated air at the point of use.
- Applications with harsher environments: Metal bowl construction is preferred where added durability is important.
- Machine panels and OEM equipment: Compact piggyback design helps simplify installation.
- General manufacturing: Supports stable downstream pressure while helping protect air-powered components.
