Use cases & applications
Compact Machinery Servicing
Ideal for small-footprint compressors like the Elmo Rietschle Pico KTN 16 or Pico KLT 15, where space is limited. Its compact 40 mm diameter and 70 mm height allow easy installation in tight engine compartments.
Continuous-Duty Vacuum Pumps
Suited for continuous operation in vacuum pumps such as the Pico VLT 20. The filter cartridge ensures consistent air intake quality, reducing wear on internal components during extended runs.
Multi-Machine Maintenance Kits
Perfect for workshops servicing multiple Elmo Rietschle Pico models (e.g., DTN 15, DLT 15). Stocking one cartridge simplifies inventory for several machines, saving storage space and ordering time.
Light Industrial Environments
Effective in light industrial settings with moderate dust levels, such as packaging or assembly lines. The filter captures airborne particles to protect sensitive pump internals without restricting airflow.
