Description
SMC AW30-03 Direct Operated Filter Regulator 0.05-0.85 MPa 3/8 Port G MS
The SMC AW30-03 is a direct operated combination filter-regulator from SMC's AW30 series, designed to filter particulates and regulate pressure in compressed air lines in a single compact inline body. The unit accepts a 3/8" G-thread port connection and regulates output pressure across a range of 0.05 to 0.85 MPa via a top-mounted knurled adjustment knob. A clear polycarbonate bowl with a level window and manual float-type drain allows visual monitoring and easy condensate removal without shutting down the line.

Applications
The SMC AW30 series filter-regulator is a standard air preparation component used in pneumatic systems throughout industrial manufacturing, automation, and process control environments. Units like the AW30-03 are installed at the point of use — on machine tools, pneumatic actuators, cylinder lines, valve manifolds, and robotic end-of-arm tooling — to ensure clean, dry, correctly pressurized air reaches downstream components. They are a core part of FRL (Filter-Regulator-Lubricator) assemblies on production equipment, conveyors, packaging lines, and semiconductor fab tooling. The 3/8" port size makes this unit well suited to medium-flow branch lines typical of 3/4" or 1" main supply headers. SMC is one of the world's largest pneumatics manufacturers, and the AW30 series remains one of the most widely deployed filter-regulators in industrial settings globally.
This SMC AW30-03 Direct Operated Filter Regulator has been inspected and appears to be in good used condition. It was pulled from a working environment where it was previously in service. The polycarbonate bowl and body show light surface wear consistent with normal use. The sintered filter element is included but shows use and may benefit from replacement before putting the unit back into service — a new OEM element (SMC part EA-1 or equivalent 30-series element) is inexpensive and readily available. The manual drain valve with orange float indicator is intact and functional in appearance. The pressure adjustment knob and all body ports are in good condition with no visible cracks or thread damage. Please review our photos carefully and contact us with any questions before purchasing.
