<p>Apparatus for supporting and connecting fluid control and/or conditioning units such as air filters, lubricators and pressure regulators to permit flow of fluid through such units in series. The apparatus is of a kind employing supporting frames in which the units can be inserted to bring inlet and outlet ports of the units into sealed registration with peripheral openings in the frames. To enable frames to be connected in series into a fluid line without the need to interpose a linking conduit, insert components are provided for insertion through peripheral openings of the different frames. When the frames are assembled in series these insert components co-operate to provide a fluid path from a unit in one frame to a unit in the next frame.</p> |
