Product Identity

The Festo MS6N-LFM-3/8-BUV-DA is a Size 6 fine filter designed for compressed air systems requiring 1 µm filtration. It suits pneumatic installations in food-industry environments where residual oil content must stay at 0.5 mg/m3 and filter efficiency reaches 99.99 %.

Installation Checks

Verify that your supply line provides 3/8 NPT ports and operates between 2 bar and 12 bar. Confirm the mounting orientation can stay vertical within +/- 5° and that ambient temperatures remain within 5 °C to 60 °C. Ensure the housing material — die-cast aluminum with NBR seals — is compatible with your media.

Thermals Noise Power

The unit handles medium temperatures up to 60 °C and stores safely down to -10 °C. A visual differential-pressure display signals element loading without electrical consumption. Maximum condensate volume is 38 ml with fully automatic drainage, and the metal bowl guard adds durability under moderate corrosion stress.
