Norgren B68G Applications & Industries
The Norgren B68G Olympian Plus filter regulator is deployed across a wide range of industrial sectors in Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC:
- Oil & Gas: Air preparation for instrumentation and process control systems on upstream and downstream facilities
- Petrochemical Plants: High-pressure compressed air filtration for automation and valve actuation systems
- Industrial Automation: Pneumatic control circuits in assembly lines, robotics, and material handling equipment
- Manufacturing & Packaging: Reliable air preparation for packaging machinery requiring consistent regulated pressure
- Power Generation: Air preparation units for turbine control and plant maintenance systems
- Water Treatment: Filtration and regulation for pneumatic instrumentation in water and wastewater systems
- General MRO: Replacement for existing Olympian 15 / F15 series units across any industrial compressed air application
How to Select the Right Norgren B68G Olympian Plus Variant
When specifying a Norgren B68G for your application, consider the following:
- Port Size: Match to your existing pipework. B68G-8AS-005 uses 1-inch PTF. Other variants use G1 / G1.5 thread.
- Drain Type: Manual drain (B68G-8AS-005) requires periodic manual emptying. Auto drain variants (B68G-NNK-AR3-RLN) empty automatically — preferred for continuous or unattended systems.
- Pressure Gauge: Some variants come without a built-in gauge. A separate gauge can be fitted to the 1/8-inch gauge port.
- Relieving vs Non-Relieving: For systems where downstream pressure may increase above set point (e.g. temperature changes), specify a relieving type regulator.
- Modular Assembly: The B68G is designed for the Olympian Plus modular system. It fits into a G 3/4 or G1 ported yoke assembly for combination with filters, regulators, and lubricators.
FAQs
What is the Norgren B68G filter regulator?
The Norgren B68G is a high-capacity filter regulator from the Olympian Plus series, combining a 40-micron air filter and a precision pressure regulator in a single unit. It is designed for industrial pneumatic air preparation applications requiring clean, regulated compressed air at flows up to 230 dm³/s.
What is the part number for the Norgren B68G with 1-inch PTF port?
The Norgren B68G with a 1-inch PTF port and manual drain is part number B68G-8AS-005. This is the variant stocked by Astro Global Solutions for delivery across Saudi Arabia.
What filtration rating does the Norgren B68G provide?
The Norgren B68G uses a 40-micron (40 μm) sintered filter element. This rating is effective at removing solid particulates and condensed water droplets from the compressed air supply, protecting downstream pneumatic equipment.
What is the maximum operating pressure of the Norgren B68G?
The Norgren B68G is rated to a maximum operating pressure of 17 bar (approximately 250 psi), making it suitable for high-pressure industrial compressed air systems.
What is the Norgren Olympian Plus series?
The Norgren Olympian Plus is a modular plug-in air preparation system that allows filters, regulators, and lubricators to be combined in a single assembly. The B68G is the large-body filter regulator in this range. Olympian Plus units fit into a common yoke assembly for easy combination and maintenance.
Is the Norgren B68G compatible with the older Olympian 15 / F15 series?
Yes. The Norgren B68G series is the upgraded replacement for the Olympian 15 (F15) series. B68G units are fully interchangeable with existing Olympian 15 installations and fit into the same G 3/4 and G1 ported yoke assemblies.
What is the difference between manual drain and auto drain on the Norgren B68G?
The B68G-8AS-005 has a manual drain, which requires the operator to open the drain valve periodically to remove accumulated liquid from the bowl. Auto drain variants (e.g. B68G-NNK-AR3-RLN) use a float mechanism that automatically discharges collected liquid — recommended for continuous or unattended operation.
What bowl capacity does the Norgren B68G-8AS-005 have?
The Norgren B68G-8AS-005 has a 1 pint (approximately 473 ml) aluminium bowl. The Pyrex liquid level indicator allows visual inspection of bowl fill level without disassembly.
What temperature range is the Norgren B68G rated for?
The Norgren B68G operates reliably in temperatures from -20°C to +80°C (-4°F to 176°F). This range covers standard industrial environments including outdoor installations in the Gulf region.
Can I get the Norgren B68G delivered to Saudi Arabia?
Yes. Astro Global Solutions supplies the Norgren B68G-8AS-005 with delivery to all regions across Saudi Arabia including Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, Al Khobar, Jubail, Yanbu, and Dhahran. Contact us on WhatsApp or by email for pricing, lead time, and bulk order enquiries.
Does the Norgren B68G-8AS-005 come with a pressure gauge?
The B68G-8AS-005 is supplied without a built-in pressure gauge. A gauge can be added separately using the 1/8-inch BSP gauge port on the unit.
What is the flow rate of the Norgren B68G?
The Norgren B68G supports a maximum flow rate of 230 dm³/s (440 SCFM), making it one of the highest-flow filter regulators in the Olympian Plus range, suitable for large-bore pneumatic systems and high-consumption applications.
What material is the Norgren B68G made from?
The Norgren B68G features an aluminium body, aluminium bonnet, and aluminium bowl. The push-to-lock pressure adjusting knob is in acetal resin, and the O-ring seals are nitrile rubber (NBR), compatible with standard compressed air and light oil applications.
