In modern industrial automation, compressed air quality directly affects the performance, service life, and efficiency of pneumatic equipment. As one of the world's leading pneumatic manufacturers, SMC Corporation has developed a complete range of air preparation products including filters, regulators, lubricators, and modular FRL systems.
SMC air preparation units are widely used in automotive manufacturing, electronics assembly, packaging systems, food processing, semiconductor production, and medical equipment industries. Their precision engineering and stable performance make them a preferred choice for industrial users worldwide.
An air preparation unit (FRL) typically consists of:
F – Filter → Removes dust, moisture, and contaminants
R – Regulator → Maintains stable working pressure
L – Lubricator → Supplies lubricating oil mist when required
SMC’s AW series combines filtration and pressure regulation into one compact module, saving installation space and reducing piping complexity.
Below is a typical specification of SMC AW filter regulators:
Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
Filtration Accuracy | 5 μm |
Pressure Setting Range | 0.05–0.7 MPa |
Maximum Operating Pressure | 1.0 MPa (10 bar) |
Proof Pressure | 1.5 MPa |
Operating Temperature | -5°C to 60°C |
Port Sizes | M5 to 3/4" |
Bowl Material | Polycarbonate |
Available Thread Types | Rc / NPT / G |
SMC regulators also feature:
✔ 360° transparent bowl visibility
✔ Reduced pressure drop (up to 50% improvement in some designs)
✔ Modular connection design
✔ Easy maintenance structure
