Overview
The SMC AFD30-N02D-Z-X2141 is a micro mist separator from SMC’s AFD series, engineered for pneumatic system air treatment and compressed air conditioning. This unit removes oil mist and moisture from compressed air lines in industrial automation, manufacturing, and hydraulic systems. The 1/4″ NPT connection ensures compatibility with standard pneumatic plumbing.
Key Features
- 0.01 Micron Filtration: Removes fine oil mist and moisture with 0.01μm filtration level
- Auto Drain (Float Type): N.O. Automatic Drain prevents bowl overflow and maintenance downtime
- Element Service Indicator: X2141 option provides visual alert when filter element requires replacement
- Transparent Bowl Guard: 360° visibility while completely protecting the bowl from the environment
- Durable Construction: Polycarbonate case bowl material for extended service life
- Flow Direction: From Left to Right
