Description
Prevost Filter-Regulator + Shut-Off Valve (2 & 3 Unit Assembly)
Clean Air & Safety Control in One Modular Package
Streamline your air preparation and maximize safety with the Prevost ALTO 2-Unit Assembly, featuring a high-performance Filter-Regulator paired with a Manual Shut-Off Valve. This pre-configured modular system provides the three essential functions for a safe workstation: filtration, pressure control, and emergency isolation—all in a compact, easy-to-install block.
The “piggyback” Filter-Regulator ensures your air is clean (removing moisture and dust) and stabilized at the correct working pressure. The integrated Shut-Off Valve (Safety Release Valve) acts as your primary control point: a simple turn of the knob blocks the supply and safely vents downstream pressure, allowing you to change tools or service the filter without risk.
Key Features & Benefits
- Integrated Safety Isolation: The Shut-Off Valve module allows for instant system depressurization. When closed, it exhausts trapped air, rendering the downstream line safe for maintenance (OSHA compliant).
- Compact “Piggyback” Design: Combines the Filter and Regulator into one vertical stack, coupled horizontally with the Shut-Off Valve. This reduces the overall width, saving valuable wall or machine space.
- Precise Regulation: The regulator maintains consistent torque and performance for your tools, regardless of main line fluctuations.
- Lockout/Tagout Ready: The shut-off valve knob is designed to accept safety padlocks, preventing accidental re-energization while technicians are working.
- Effective Filtration: Cyclonic action and a high-quality element (typically 25µm) remove water condensates and pipe scale that damage air tools.

Ideal Applications
- Individual Workstations: The perfect “entry point” assembly for a bench technician, providing clean air and a local safety switch.
- Machine Isolation: Protecting pneumatic automation equipment with both clean air and a dedicated Lockout point.
- Paint Booths (Pre-Stage): Safe isolation and basic water removal before air enters fine finishing filters.
- Construction Sites: Rugged and compact enough for portable compressor setups.
Assembly Note: This unit typically ships pre-assembled with the necessary wall brackets and modular joining kits. The Shut-Off Valve is usually positioned on the inlet side to protect the filter and regulator during service.
