Balcrank Mini Filter/Regulator, Poly Bowl, Manual Drain (3260-066)

The Balcrank 3260-066 Mini Air Filter/Regulator is a compact, professional-grade compressed air conditioning component designed for pneumatic pumps, lubrication systems, and fluid-handling equipment. Featuring a 1/4-inch NPT female connection, durable polycarbonate bowl, manual drain, and adjustable air pressure regulation, this combination filter/regulator provides dependable air preparation for compatible air-operated piston and diaphragm pumps.

Designed to help protect pneumatic equipment from contaminants and excessive air supply pressure, the Balcrank 3260-066 combines air filtration and pressure regulation in a convenient, space-saving piggyback configuration. The integrated filter helps remove moisture and airborne particulate contamination, while the adjustable regulator allows technicians to control outlet air pressure according to the pump manufacturer's operating requirements.

Rated for air pressures up to 150 PSI (10 bar) and airflow up to 15 SCFM, this mini filter/regulator is suitable for compatible pneumatic lubrication pumps, fluid transfer systems, and professional maintenance equipment.

The poly bowl with manual drain allows technicians to remove collected moisture during routine maintenance. Unlike automatic-drain models, the Balcrank 3260-066 provides manual condensate draining for installations where technician-controlled drainage is preferred.

Its compact design makes it especially useful in automotive repair shops, fleet maintenance facilities, heavy-equipment service centers, and industrial maintenance operations where installation space may be limited.

For installations requiring additional mounting support, the Balcrank 3261-007 mini filter/regulator mounting bracket is available separately.

Whether you're replacing a worn air preparation component, servicing a Balcrank lubrication pump, or configuring a new pneumatic fluid-handling system, the Balcrank 3260-066 Mini Filter/Regulator provides an efficient solution for air filtration and adjustable pressure control.

Common Applications for the Balcrank 3260-066

The Balcrank 3260-066 mini air filter/regulator is designed for professional compressed air systems that require filtration and controlled supply pressure.

Automotive Repair Shops: Supply filtered, regulated compressed air to compatible pneumatic lubrication pumps and fluid dispensing equipment.

Fleet Maintenance Facilities: Support reliable operation of air-powered pumps used for commercial truck, fleet vehicle, and equipment servicing.

Heavy-Equipment Service Centers: Provide air preparation for compatible pneumatic fluid-transfer and lubrication systems used in construction, agriculture, and industrial equipment maintenance.

Industrial Maintenance Operations: Regulate compressed air supplied to compatible piston pumps, diaphragm pumps, and other pneumatic equipment.

Balcrank Lubrication Systems: Replace or install a compatible air filter/regulator for Balcrank air-operated pump packages.

Why Is an Air Filter/Regulator Important for Pneumatic Pumps?

Compressed air quality and proper pressure regulation are important factors in the operation and maintenance of pneumatic equipment.

Moisture, particulates, and improperly regulated air pressure can contribute to premature component wear, inconsistent pump operation, and unnecessary maintenance.

The Balcrank 3260-066 helps address these concerns by combining two essential air preparation functions:

Air Filtration: Helps capture moisture and particulate contaminants before they enter compatible pneumatic pumping equipment. Reducing contamination can help protect internal components and support reliable pump operation.

Pressure Regulation: Allows technicians to adjust and maintain appropriate outlet pressure for the connected air-operated pump, helping prevent operation outside the pump manufacturer's recommended air supply range.

For service facilities using pneumatic lubrication pumps and fluid-handling equipment, a properly selected filter/regulator is an important part of an effective compressed air supply system.

Balcrank 3260-066 vs. 3260-060 – Manual Drain vs. Automatic Drain

Balcrank offers two mini poly-bowl filter/regulator models with different drainage configurations.

Choose Balcrank 3260-066 for manual condensate draining. Choose Balcrank 3260-060 when an automatic-drain mini filter/regulator is required.
