SMC AF20-F02 Inline Pneumatic Filter Assembly

SMC's AF20-F02 Inline Pneumatic Filter Assembly is a compact inline air filter from SMC's AF20 family, designed to protect pneumatic systems by removing particulates from compressed air before it reaches actuators and valves. Built on the AF20 modular concept, this model integrates the filter element and bowl in a single unit for straightforward element replacement and reduced maintenance downtime. Within the AF20-F02 family, variants such as AF20-F02-A are specified with a 5 µm filtration rating, a polycarbonate bowl, and an 8 ml element volume, with flow capacity claims around 1500 L/min at 10 bar according to distributor listings; automotive sourcing such as VW's component list also references AF20-F02-A with a 5 µm rating and a G1/4 connection, listing approximately 1100 L/min flow in that catalog. The AF20 line is widely cataloged by distributors and OEMs as a modular, inline air filter suitable for compressed-air lines in automation and manufacturing settings, underscoring its role in delivering cleaner air to pneumatic circuits and protecting downstream devices.
