Air Preparation
With a product range that includes after-coolers, dryers, filters, regulators, lubricators and pressure boosters, SMC can provide all of your air purification and preparation needs. With filtration levels ranging from 5 microns down to 0.3 and 0.01 microns we can provide high levels of purification. This can be further improved on with our range of super mist separators and clean air and gas filters.
We can offer pressure regulation encompassing high pressure to high precision with further options available from compact manifold regulators to miniature regulators.
The assembly of modular combinations of filters, regulators, lubricators, soft start and shut-off valves are also supplied to meet the customers requirements.
Dryers – refrigerated and membrane
Modular FRL combination
Compact manifold regulators
Filtration levels of 5microns to 0.01microns
Booster regulator
Electro-pneumatic and precision regulators
Filters
Filters remove solid impurities such as rust, dirt particles and water droplets from compressed air. SMC manufacture a range of filters, from M5 to 2” port size, making our range suitable for applications in the smallest test instruments to the largest industrial plant. SMC has standardised on 5 micron filter elements for most ...
Regulators
Regulators can help to improve efficiency by reducing component wear and by lowering energy costs. In addition to our standard range of regulators we also offer compact regulators with our ARJ series, high pressure solutions with the ARX (20 bar) and VCHR (50 bar) series. We also provide compact manifolds designs in the form of th...
Precision Regulator
SMC have a range of precision regulators for use in applications which require pressure control to closer tolerances than is available from conventional regulators. For applications such as tension control, force control on pressing machines, leak testing, or balance systems, the precise control offered by precision regulators guar...
Lubricators
Where lubrication is required, adding a small quantity of oil to compressed air reduces greatly wear and tear of pneumatic components. SMC’s range of lubricators includes modular components, with port size from M5 to 1’’, large flow lubricators from 1 1/4” to 2” and centralised lubrication systems....
Integrated Filter/Regulator units
With a regulator and filter combined into a single unit, these products offer a similar performance as individual units but with the benefit of space saving. SMC’s range includes standard filter/regulators as well as regulator/mist separator and regulator/micro mist separator combinations. ...
Modular F.R.L Combination Units
Pre-assembled filter, regulator, and lubricator combinations are available from SMC. The most popular combinations are given one part number for easy ordering, assembled at our premises and are then tested to ensure compliance with our stringent quality control procedures prior to dispatch. They are then despatched to our customer...
Dryers
SMC’s Refrigerated Dryers can offer cooling ratings of 3-75kW. Compared to previous models the new IDFA offers a reduction in volume by 30% and in weight by 40%. It also provides an Increased level of air flow capacity by 40% when compared to previous models and with the use of a Stainless Steel Heat-Exchanger it can offer Energy...
Soft-start Valves
With increasing emphasis being placed on safety in the workplace, the need for safe start-up of machinery has prompted SMC to develop soft start-up valves. These valves reduce and then gradually increase the downstream pressure that is supplied to actuators from a safe low initial value, to the higher values that the machines deman...
Pressure Booster Regulator
SMC’s pressure boosters are twin-piston pressure intensifiers that are designed to raise the pressure of compressed air by non-electrical means. They are ideal for use in applications where a small number of end-of-line components may lack power due to lower than optimum mains air pressure. By boosting the pressure to a higher le...
Pressure Gauges
SMC manufactures a range of pressure gauges, including general purpose, oil free, copper-free, digital, clean gauges and a pressure gauge with built-in switch. To assist with plant maintenance, our differential pressure gauge identifies when compressed air filters are clogged and when the filter elements require replacement. A por...
Miscellaneous Equipment
Compressed air can sometimes reach a high temperature and when it cools, large volumes of water can be deposited in the airline system. These deposits can be problematic but they can be easily reduced by installing an aftercooler immediately after the compressor. SMC manufactures both water cooled and air cooled units. A selecti...
