Clean air or nitrogen applications requiring high levels of filtration
accuracy now have an outstanding solution thanks to development
engineers from SMC, the world leaders in automation solution and their
new Series SFD clean air filter.
Designed for clean air environments, the SFD provides filtration
efficiency of 99.9% accuracy thanks to its built-in hollow fibre
membrane with a nominal filtration rate of 0.01µm. Available in both
disposable and cartridge types and with either plastic or metal case
options, the filter can effectively operate with flow rates of between
60 to 500 l/min ranges. For ease of operation the cartridge options can
be quickly disassembled allowing simple replacement of the hollow fibre
filter element and the standard clear resin case, which is resistant to
alcohol based cleaning fluids, provides fast visual detection of the
filter´s status. In the metal case options, the SFD can be ordered in
either aluminium or stainless steel which are ideal for use in
atmospheres exposed to organic solvents and chemicals.
Manufactured and quality checked in clean room environments, the SFD
filter is available with two types of piping ports for use with either
SMC´s KP fittings or similar clean one-touch or threaded female fitting
types.
