Filter Valve Ross Controls Low Cracking Pressure

Description

Product Overview

The Ross Controls filter valve (model 1968A6107) is engineered for demanding industrial air filtration tasks. Constructed with a robust housing measuring 10 x 10 x 10 inches and weighing 2 pounds, the unit combines durability with a compact footprint. Its self‑cleaning poppet design tolerates dirty air, reducing the frequency of manual cleaning. Low cracking pressure ensures the system opens quickly under minimal differential, while the soft‑seal mechanism delivers quiet operation. The valve is serviceable in‑line, allowing technicians to replace the filter element without dismantling the entire system.

Usage

It is suitable for manufacturing plants, clean rooms, and large‑scale ventilation networks. The low cracking pressure makes it ideal for applications that require rapid response to pressure changes, such as dust collection systems and air‑intake manifolds.
