Overview
The SMC AFD30-N02D-Z-X2141 is a micro mist separator designed for compressed air treatment and air pressure regulation. This modular unit delivers 0.01μm filtration to remove contaminants and condensate from pneumatic systems, protecting downstream equipment and extending component life.
Key Features
- 0.01μm Filtration — Removes micro mist and fine oil aerosols from compressed air
- Element Service Indicator (X2141) — Visual indicator for filter replacement timing, minimizing downtime
- Transparent Bowl Guard — 360° visibility of condensate level while protecting the bowl from impact and environmental contamination
- Metal Condensate Bowl — Durable, corrosion-resistant bowl with manual drain cock for easy maintenance
- Modular Design — Compact 3/8″ (body size 30) unit compatible with modular air preparation systems
- NPT Threads — Standard 1/4″ NPT ports for universal pneumatic compatibility
Technical Specifications
The AFD30-N02D-Z-X2141 operates as part of the SMC AFD series micro mist separator line. Flow direction is left-to-right with an imperial unit rating plate. Maximum operating pressure is 1.0 MPa, with test pressure of 1.5 MPa. Filtration element removes particles down to 0.01 microns.
Typical Applications
- Pneumatic automation control systems requiring clean, dry compressed air
- CNC machine tool air preparation
- Industrial valve and actuator networks
- Compressed air safety systems
- OEM equipment retrofit and maintenance
