Remote Inlet Air Filter Assembly

The Viair Corporation 92631 Remote Inlet Air Filter Assembly is a new metal housing filter designed for air compressor and vacuum pump systems. It connects via 1/4 inch by 3/8 inch tube fittings to supply cleaner intake air. Automotive technicians and workshop operators use it to protect pump internals from airborne contaminants during regular operation.

Replacing a clogged or missing intake filter

When an existing inlet filter becomes saturated or is absent, this assembly restores proper filtration at a remote mounting point. The jump is worth it if the compressor draws air from a dusty or debris-heavy environment where the original filter location cannot stay clean. It also applies when the stock filter housing is damaged and a durable metal replacement is required.

Build integration and clearance

The unit threads into the compressor intake port using the supplied tube dimensions and can be positioned away from the pump body where airflow is cleaner. Metal construction resists cracking under vibration and heat cycles better than plastic alternatives. Buyers who need a different thread size or a larger filtration surface area will need a separate adapter or filter model. California Proposition 65 warnings apply for chemical exposure.

Questions about this item

What tube sizes does the remote inlet filter assembly accept for connection?

The assembly uses a 1/4" x 3/8" tube interface for remote inlet mounting.

How is the metal housing filter assembly installed onto the compressor system?

Connect the 1/4" and 3/8" tube fittings securely; the common error is reversing the inlet and outlet ports during installation.

When should the filter element inside the metal housing be replaced?

Replace the filter element when airflow restriction increases or at the compressor manufacturer's recommended service interval.
