Compressed air has to be treated in order for the component to be used in pneumatic systems. Atmospheric air is a concentration of gas, water vapour and contaminants. Before being sucked into a compressor it has to be treated to eliminate any contaminants in order to prevent them from reaching the equipment and damaging it
Compressed air treatment units
Filters, pressure reducers and lubricators supplied by Waircom
Given the complex nature of their task, the production of compressed air treatment units is carried out with great care: the series of filters, pressure reducers and lubricators have sizes ranging from G1/4”up to G1″.
We also produce special single unit series that consist of the 3 main compressed air treatment components (filter, pressure reducer and lubricator).
Our catalogue also includes soft-start control valves and lockable valves that can be fitted with filters, pressure reducers and lubricators. We also have proportional valves that act as output pressure regulators and regulate the pressure by means of an electrical signal and pressure gauges that allow the pressure in pneumatic circuits to be detected.
Innovative accessories and pressure switches
The Waircom catalogue also includes the PRDA series for measuring the pressure of fluids: innovative pressure switches with a digital output, an integrated display and an interface via which to program various functions.
These pressure switches are small and are therefore very versatile products that can be used in applications using air and non-flammable and non-corrosive gases.

◘ SERIES UZRRM/F | Filter reducer G1/4"Filter reducer series "UZRRM /F", produced with connections G1/4", combine the characteristics of the filters and of the pressure reducers series "UZ", thus optimising the overall dimensions. |
◘ SERIES UZL | Lubricator G1/4"Lubricators series "UZL" are produced with connections G1/4"; the techno-polymer bowls can carry a metallic protection or being entirely metallic (without visualization of level). For a correct lubrication it is advisable to set the drip rate in order to have a drop of oil (WAIRSOL class ISO32) every 300 - 500 Nl/min. |
◘ SERIES UZAP | Soft-start valve G1/4"SOFT-START VALVE: soft-start valves series "UZAP" are produced with connection G1/4" in the pneumatic and solenoid actuated versions. The working of the soft-start valve consists in feeding gradually air into the circuit with adjustable flow. When the pressure in the circuit reaches the 50 ÷ 60% of the upstream set pressure, the valve switches to full capacity, supplying the circuit with the maximum flow rate. |
◘SERIES UZVL | Shut - off valve G1/4" and accessoriesShut - off valves series "UZVL" are produced with connection G1/4" and they are fit to be locked in the exhaust position by means of a standard padlock. |

◘ SERIES EZF | Filter G3/8" - G1/2" - G1"Filters series "EZF" are produced with connections G3/8", G1/2" and G1"; they are available with various degrees of filtration and with manual, semi-automatic or automatic condensate drainage system (except the size G3/8"). The techno-polymer bowls have a metallic protection as standard for the sizes G 1/2 and G 1, and made of glass stiffened polyamide on request for the size G3/8". |
◘ SERIES EZRR | Pressure reducer G3/8" - G1/2" - G1"Pressure reducers series "EZRR" are produced with connections G3/8", G1/2" and G1"; they are available with different scales of regulation and can be supplied without the relieving seal on request. |
◘ SERIES EZRR/F | Filter reducer G3/8" - G1/2" - G1"Filters reducers series "EZRR/F", produced with connections G3/8", G1/2" and G1", combine the characteristics of the filters and of the pressure reducers series "EZ", thus optimizing the overall dimensions. |
◘ SERIES EZL | Lubricator G3/8" - G1/2" - G1"Lubricators series "EZL" are produced with connections G3/8", G1/2" and G1"; the technopolymer bowls have a metallic protection as standard for the sizes G1/2" and G1", and made of glass stiffened polyamide on request for the size G 3/8.For a correct lubrication it is advisable to set the drip rate in order to have a drop (WAIRSOL class ISO32) every 300 - 500 Nl/min. (oil mist lubrication). |
◘ SERIES EZAP | Soft-start valve G3/8" - G1/2" - G1"Soft - start valves series "EZAP" are produced with connections G3/8", G1/2" and G1" in the pneumatic and solenoid actuated versions.

◘ SERIES EPR | Pressure proportional valves G1/8" - G1/4" - G1/2"Proportional valves allow to adjust the output pressure by means of an electric signal. Depending on the set pressure, there’s an output electrical signal, called “feedback signal”. These valves have a display that,besides indicating the regulated pressure, facilitates the configuration thanks to the user panel at the valveside.These valves are available in G1/8”, G1/4” and G1/2” sizes. |
◘ SERIES MA | Pressure gauges Ø 40 - 50 - 63 - 100Pressure gauges allow sensing the pressure in the pneumatic circuits.
