Filters
Modular style air filters combine the element and bowl in one piece, for simple replacement requiring no tools. The standard polycarbonate 360° transparent bowl avoids corrosion, easily indicates bowl contents and has auto drain capability to minimize maintenance time. SMC pneumatic filters have a standard filtration rating of 5 microns and the capability to filter up to 0.01 microns.
AF-D
The AF-D series of modular air filters brings a modern appearance to SMC's line of filters while maintaining the high performance of our other series. These 5 μm units can serve as appropriate filtration for many applications or as a pre-filter for fine filtration/coalescing units. The transparent bowl guard on the size 30 and larger provides improved environmental protection as well as full view of the bowl contents. The AF-D is currently available in three body sizes with more to come in the near future.
AF-A
SMC's new AF modular style air filter combines the element and bowl in one piece, making element replacement easy. There is a maximum 46% reduction in size, reducing required maintenance space. The AF bowl (size 30 and 40) is covered with a transparent bowl guard, allowing 360° monitoring. The modular design of the AF allows connection with other SMC air preparation equipment. The series is available in body size 20, 30 and 40.
The AF-A series will end production in March 2025. -- Please select the AF-D series for new applications
AFD-D
The AFD-D series of modular micro mist separators (coalescing filters) brings a modern appearance to SMC's line of filters while maintaining the high performance of our other series. These 0.01 μm remove most measurable particles and further reduce the oils carried over from the compressor. The transparent bowl guard on the size 30 and larger provides improved environmental protection as well as full view of the bowl contents. The AFD-D is currently available in three body sizes with more to come in the near future.
AFD-A
SMC's newest micro mist separator, series AFD is available in 3 sizes; 1/4 (20), 3/8 (30) & 1/2 (40). Rc(PT), PF & NPT threads are available. Port sizes range from 1/8 to 3/4. Body size 30 and 40 now have a transparent bowl guard that offers 360° visibility, while completely protecting the bowl from the environment. Accessories include a bracket, and float type auto drain.
The AFD-A series will end production in March 2025. -- Please select the AFD-D series for new applications
AFM-D
The AFM-D series of modular mist separators (coalescing filters) brings a modern appearance to SMC's line of filters while maintaining the high performance of our other series. These 0.3 μm units remove finer particles than standard filters while also reducing entrained oil from the compressioin process. The transparent bowl guard on the size 30 and larger provides improved environmental protection as well as full view of the bowl contents. The AFM-D is currently available in three body sizes with more to come in the near future.
AFM-A
Series AFM modular style mist separator is available in body sizes 20, 30, and 40, and is offered with Rc, NPT or G thread types. The AFM's standard filtration is 0.3µm with a 99.9% filtered particle size. Body size 30 and 40 now have a transparent bowl guard that offers 360° visibility, while completely protecting the bowl from the environment. The modular design allows connection with other SMC air preparation equipment. Use in combination with the AF series to meet your clean room filtration requirements.
The AFM-A series will end production in March 2025. -- Please select the AFM-D series for new applications
AFG-D
AFG-D elementless water separator eliminates the need of filter elements, allowing for larger flow capacity and eliminating the hassle of regular maintenance. AFG-D utilizes centrifugal force to effectively separate water from compressed air, achieving 99% water droplet removal. AFG-D modular body style allows it to be installed into existing FRL systems.
AF8/9 Large Flow Air Filter
AF8/9 series large flow air filters are an effective filtration solution in larger port sizes. Equipped with sintered bronze (standard) or stainless (optional) elements, these particulate filters are available in 2, 5 (std), 10, 20, 40, 70, and 100 micron ratings.
HF2-BF
The new HF2-BF series of modular air filters are designed for hygiene management in accordance with HACCP and other standards. These filters were developed for applications which require sanitary air such as dental equipment or when air is touching food products. The HF2-BF series filters include nominal filtration ratings from 5μm to 0.01μm as well as odor removal. The HF2-BF series currently includes port sizes of 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 with flow rates up to 800 L/min.
ZFC
Series ZF are air suction filters that prevent trouble in vacuum equipment caused by contaminants in the air. They are light weight and compact. ZF filter elements are easily replaced without tools.
SF
SF series clean air filters are available as cartridge type or disposable type models. The filtration level is 0.01 micron (filtering efficiency of 99.99%) on units with membrane elements. The SFB20, with a sintered metallic element, has a nominal filtration of 120 micron. The SF series can be used under different environments with chemical resistant and heat resistant materials (refer to catalog specifications for each series).
