The AF series (specifically the new AF-A generation) is the industry-leading standard for compressed air filtration. Designed to remove moisture droplets and solid contaminants from your air lines, the AF series protects sensitive downstream components such as solenoid valves and cylinders. Its modular design allows for seamless integration with SMC regulators and lubricators to create a complete F.R.L. assembly.
Key Technical Features & Engineering Highlights
Modular Design for Easy Integration: The AF-A series features a streamlined, modular connection system. Using SMC spacers and brackets, it can be combined with other air preparation equipment to save space and simplify piping.
Enhanced Visibility with Transparent Bowl Guard: The latest design features a double-layer transparent bowl guard, providing 360-degree visibility of the condensate level while offering maximum protection from the environment.
High-Efficiency 5-Micron Filtration: Equipped with a high-quality 5μm filter element as standard, it effectively captures fine particles and separates water droplets to prevent internal corrosion and mechanical wear.
Lightweight & Compact Construction: Reduced weight and dimensions compared to previous generations allow for easier installation on robotic arms and compact machine frames.
Versatile Drain Options: Available with manual drains, semi-auto drains, and high-reliability auto-drains (N.O. or N.C. types) to suit various maintenance requirements.
