Festo MS4-LFX-1/4-R, Activated Carbon Filter

The Festo MS4-LFX-1/4-R is a manually activated carbon filter designed to clean compressed air before it reaches sensitive pneumatic equipment. Its main job is to remove oil vapours, odours, and fine contaminants that standard filters cannot capture. With a flow rate of up to 360 L/min, it fits well into compact air preparation systems where air quality matters more than high volume. This unit is commonly used as a final filtration stage, especially in applications that require clean, dry, and neutral air for reliable operation.

Unmatched Advantages of Buying the Festo 360L/min Activated Manual Carbon Filter

Unlike automatic or continuously active filters, this carbon filter is manually activated. That means it is used when needed, not all the time. This helps extend the service life of the carbon element and keeps maintenance predictable.

• Manual activation for controlled use.
• Carbon filtration for oil vapour and odour removal.
• Designed for point-of-use air cleaning.

Manual Air Filtration for Clean Compressed Air

The MS4-LFX-1/4-R is built to integrate directly into Festo MS4 modular air preparation units. Its compact size makes it suitable for control cabinets, machine frames, or tight installation spaces. The 1/4-inch port size supports stable airflow without pressure drop issues in small to mid-range pneumatic systems. The housing is designed for industrial environments and withstands continuous operation.

Broad Range Application

This filter is usually installed where air quality directly affects performance or product quality, such as:

• Pneumatic control systems
• Packaging and assembly machines
• Air supply for valves and actuators
• Applications sensitive to oil vapour or odour
