Description
Product Overview
The SMC AMG550C-N10BC water separator is engineered for demanding industrial environments where clean, dry compressed air is essential for optimal equipment performance. Constructed from high‑grade, RoHS‑compliant materials, the unit offers exceptional durability and resistance to corrosion, ensuring a long service life even in harsh conditions. Its compact footprint—measuring 11.8 x 7 x 6.9 inches—and lightweight design (5.35 pounds) make it easy to install in confined spaces without sacrificing capacity.
Designed with a 1 inch NPT female inlet and outlet, the separator integrates seamlessly with existing air piping systems, eliminating the need for custom adapters. The internal bowl utilizes a non‑contact automatic drain mechanism that continuously removes accumulated liquid, preventing water buildup and reducing the risk of downstream component damage. With a maximum airflow capacity of 3,700 liters per minute, this separator can handle high‑volume applications while maintaining consistent moisture removal efficiency.
Usage
Ideal for a wide range of industrial and scientific applications, the SMC water separator excels in environments such as manufacturing plants, automotive workshops, food processing facilities, and laboratory settings where moisture‑free compressed air is critical. It is particularly effective in pneumatic tool operations, paint spraying systems, and air‑driven instrumentation that require reliable moisture control to prevent corrosion, clogging, and performance degradation.
Installation is straightforward: connect the 1 inch NPT inlet to the upstream air source and the outlet to the downstream equipment. The automatic drain operates without user intervention, making it suitable for continuous‑run processes and automated production lines. The separator’s robust construction also allows it to withstand temperature fluctuations and exposure to oil‑containing air streams, providing consistent performance across diverse operating conditions.
