FRL
An FRL is a crucial component in a pneumatic (compressed air) system. It is an acronym for Filter, Regulator, and Lubricator, which are three separate but often combined units that work together to condition the air before it reaches pneumatic tools and equipment.
The air that comes from a compressor is typically hot, dirty, and wet. If this untreated air is used directly in a pneumatic system, it can cause damage to the equipment, reduce its performance, and shorten its lifespan. The FRL unit's job is to ensure that the air is clean, at a consistent pressure, and, if needed, properly lubricated.
