The SMC Type air source processor delivers clean, dry compressed air critical for sensitive pneumatic systems. This AF series filter, available in AF20, AF30, AF40, and AF50 models, efficiently removes oil mist, water, and particulates. It protects downstream equipment from contamination, reduces maintenance costs, and ensures consistent performance for tools and actuators. Features and Benefits
- Multi-stage filtration with coalescing element - Effectively removes oil aerosols and water droplets down to 0.3 microns for exceptionally clean air output.
- Manual or automatic drain options - Provides flexibility for installation and maintenance, allowing for efficient condensate removal based on system requirements.
- Standard SMC thread porting (Rc, NPT, G) - Ensures easy integration and compatibility with existing industrial pneumatic systems and components.
- Transparent polycarbonate bowl with guard - Enables visual monitoring of condensate level and collected contaminants for proactive maintenance.
- Robust aluminum alloy body - Offers durability and corrosion resistance for reliable long-term operation in demanding industrial environments. Applications
- CNC machinery and precision pneumatic tools - Protects sensitive valves and cylinders from oil and water contamination, preventing malfunctions.
- Paint spray booths and finishing systems - Ensures oil-free air supply is delivered to spray guns, eliminating defects in the final finish.
- Packaging and automation equipment - Maintains consistent actuator speed and force by providing clean, dry air to pneumatic circuits.
- Laboratory and medical air lines - Acts as a primary filter to remove bulk contaminants before further purification stages. Note: Ensure correct model selection (AF20, AF30, AF40, AF50) based on your system's flow rate and port size requirements for optimal performance. Regular element replacement is recommended.
