SMC Modular Compressed Air Filters for Particle Removal

Extend the life of air-powered tools and equipment by removing particles and water droplets from compressed air. Connect these filters to other SMC units in the same series with joiner clamps (sold separately) to customize your air preparation system. You’ll only need 25 mm of clearance below the filter for emptying condensate or switching out the filter element. The filter element isn’t attached to the housing, so it comes off when the bowl does.
Joiner clamps (sold separately) create compact, airtight connections between components, even if the pipe sizes are slightly different. They come with mounting brackets to attach the filter to a wall or equipment.

SMC Compressed Air Filter Bowls

Replace a damaged bowl on your SMC modular compressed air filter, or switch to a different bowl material or drain type. These bowls come with an O-ring to ensure a tight seal.
Bowls with an automatic drain periodically release condensate into the air, eliminating the need for manual emptying.
BSPP threads are also known as G threads. BSPT threads are also known as R threads.
