AFR and BFR Air Filter-Regulators

Description

AFR and BFR filter-regulators combine particle filtration, water separation and adjustable air pressure in a compact assembly. A push-in locking knob helps retain the pressure setting. AFR2000 uses an exposed transparent bowl, while BFR models include an iron bowl guard.
