Review on NANPU 1/2" NPT Air Dryer System - 5 & 0.5 Micron Filtration, Pressure Regulator, Water Trap Separator, Semi-Auto Drain & 150 Psi Gauge W/ Poly Bowl & Metal Bracket by Daniel Steele

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ultra Compact and Seems Well Built

Just unpacked this and fitted the pressure gauge to the pressure regulator/primary ( 5 micron ) filtration unit. That is the only assembly required other than attaching it to the compressor. There are no nuts and bolts that come with this unit so you will need to figure out what bolts are required for your particular situation.It is ultra compact and the body seems to be made of die cast metal. The bowls are poly carbonate so you need only clean these with soap and water when necessary. No chemical cleaners as the PC bowls will become cloudy.Input and output ports are 1/4 NPT and a pair of brass couplers come with this along with a plastic fitting connector. Why they include this connector I couldn’t say. Seems like a waste as no self respecting tradesman would ever use it.I’m going to install it on my Porter Cable pancake compressor and put it through some heavy use in the next week.Will revisit this review with the details and post accordingly.

Pros
  • Filter & Regulator Combos
Cons
  • Limited Protection: While the system's 5 & 0.5-micron filtration and water trap separator offer some protection against contaminants, they may not be sufficient for heavy-duty applications
