website), making sure not to exceed the specification range.
2) Do not use the product if no leakage is allowed due to the environment, or if the fluid is not air.
3) This product cannot be used in the following environments.
- Atmosphere containing corrosive gas, organic solvent, or chemical agent solution is, or a location
where any of these substances is attached.
- Atmosphere containing with sea water or water or containing steam, or a location where any of
these substances is attached.
- Locations subject to direct sunlight (Block direct sunlight to the product to prevent deterioration due
to ultraviolet rays or temperature rise).
- Where the product is exposed to heat sources or in areas that the product is exposed to radiant
heat.
- Where impact or vibration is present.
- In a location with high humidity and a large quantity of dust.
- Outdoor.
- Mounting on vehicle or vessel (The product may be damaged due to excessive vibration).
Note) The display window material is nylon.
4) For air blow applications, prevent airborne particles from the operating environment entering into the
compressed air stream, or foreign matter may adhere to the workpiece during the air blow.
5) If the air equipment is mounted on the outlet of the product, particles will be generated from the
equipment and required cleanliness may not be obtained. Instead, install the air equipment at the
inlet.

Caution
1) Applications in which the difference between the inlet and outlet pressure exceeds 0.1MPa must be
avoided. Or the element is broken.

Selection
Warning
1) Grease is used on the internal sliding parts and seals. The grease may flow to the outlet side.
2) Select the model so that the maximum discharge value (instantaneous) of the flow rate will not
exceed the rated air capacity. If the flowrate exceeds the maximum air flow capacity, it may cause
spillage of drainage and oil to the outlet side, and damage equipment downstream.
3) N.O. type auto drain should be operated under the following conditions to avoid operating failure.
Operating compressor: 0.75kW or more. Discharged flow rate: 100L/min (ANR) or more. When
using 2 or more auto drains, multiply the value above by the number of auto drains to find the
capacity of the compressors you will need. For example, when using 2 auto drains, 1.5kW (200L/min
(ANR)) of the compressor capacity is required. The operating pressure should be 0.1 MPa or more.
4) Use the N.C. type auto drain at the operating pressure of 0.15MPa or higher to prevent malfunction.

Caution
1) Do not use the product with low air pressure (e.g. for blower). This product is dedicated for
compressed air whose minimum operating pressure is specified depending on the equipment. If the
product is operated at a pressure lower than the minimum operating pressure, it may cause
deterioration in the performance or malfunction.

Installation
Warning
1) Do not drop or apply impact during transportation or installation. It will cause damage to the product
and result in operation failure.

-4-
2) Do not install in areas of high humidity or high temperature. Operation outside of the product
specification range may cause damage to the product or operation failure, or shorten the product life.
3) Connect the product ensuring the direction of arrow or "1"(IN) and "2"(OUT) ports for air direction or
an arrow. Incorrect connections may cause malfunction.
4) Install with adequate space for maintenance beneath the product. Refer to [13. Dimensions] (page
22) for necessary space.
5) Install vertically so that outlet of drain is facing downward. It cannot be used in horizontal or upward
direction as it may cause operation failure.
6) Do not hit the auto switch with a tool or allow it to receive any other impacts. Doing so may cause
damage.
7) Do not attach or detach the auto switch equipped with the clogging switch. Otherwise, the detection
accuracy of the clogging switch may be reduced. In addition, note that an auto switch with an element
service indicator cannot be installed in combination.
8) Do not place magnetic objects near the product. Otherwise, a machine failure may result.

Piping
Warning
1) Before piping, perform flushing or cleaning of the piping, etc. to remove any cutting chips, cutting oil,
solid foreign matter, etc. from the piping. Contamination of piping may cause damage or malfunction.
2) When screwing together pipes and fittings, etc., be certain that chips from the pipe threads and
sealant do not get inside the pipe. When a sealant tape is used, leave 1 thread ridge exposed at the
end of the threads.
3) Connect piping/fittings using the recommended torque while holding the female thread side tightly.
Insufficient tightening torque can cause loose piping or sealing failure. Excess tightening torque may
cause damage to threads. If the female side is not held while tightening, excessive force will be
applied to the bracket directly, causing breakage.

Recommended tightening torque (Unit: N m)

Thread size 3/4 1
Torque 28 to 30 36 to 38

4) Before screwing-in an SMC fitting or S coupler, please refer to "Tightening the threaded portion of
the connection thread" section of the Fitting & Tubing Precautions.
5) Do not apply torsion or bending moment other than the weight of the product itself. External piping
needs to be supported separately as it may cause damage. Non-flexible piping like steel tube is
susceptible to excessive moment load or vibration. Insert flexible tubes to prevent this.
6) Drain guide is not equipped with valve function. Be sure to connect piping for drain. No piping for
drain allows the drain and compressed air to exhaust freely. Also, the piping should be performed
with drain guide held by spanner to prevent breakage of bowl.
7) To make drain discharge piping for auto drain, connect pipes under the following conditions to avoid
malfunction. Tube with a piping internal diameter of ø6.5 (ø1/4") or above and a length of 5m (200
inch) or less.
8) Pipework for auto drain discharge which rises higher than the auto drain outlet should be avoided. It
may cause the auto drain operation to fail.

Air Source
Warning
1) Use clean air. Do not use compressed air containing chemicals, organic solvent, synthetic oil or
corrosive gas as it may be cause of breakage of components or operation failure.
2) Air containing too much moisture may deteriorate the performance. Install the refrigerated air dryer
or aftercooler before the line filter.
3) Make sure that the supply pressure is not below the minimum operating pressure. If it is used at the
minimum operating pressure or less, pressure resistance increases, leading to the decrease of
operation life or operation failure.

-5-
 Caution
1) Install the air filter AF series or line filter AFF series as a pre-filter to the inlet of the AM series in order to
avoid the clogging of early stage.
2) Install the air filter AFM series or line filter AM series as a pre-filter to the inlet of the AMD series in order
to avoid the clogging of early stage.

Maintenance
Warning
1) Release the pressure in the product to the atmosphere when replacing parts or removing piping.
2) Maintenance and checks should be done by following the procedure in the operation manual.
Incorrect handling of the product may cause breakage or operation failure of the equipment or
device.
3) Do not touch the product when operating at high temperature (40 to 60 oC). The operators may get
burnt. Be sure to confirm that the temperature of the container or operating part is reduced to 40 oC
or less to prevent burns.
4) On a product with an element service indicator, perform regular checks to find cracks, scratches, or
other deterioration of the indicator window. If any crack, scratch, and other defect is observed,
replace the element service indicator with new a one because such a defect may cause the product
to be broken. Investigate and/or review the operating conditions if necessary.
5) Check for dirt in the bowl periodically. If any dirt is seen, replace with new bowl.
6) Open and close drain cock by hand. The use of tools can result in damage to the product.
7) Replace the element before 2 years passed from start of use or pressure drop (difference between
the inlet pressure and outlet pressure) reaches 0.1MPa. Or if the element is broken.

Caution
1) Check the element periodically and replace it with a new one if necessary. If it is found that outlet
pressure drops or the flow is restricted, check the condition of the element.
2) For the N.C. type auto drain, when there is no pressure, condensate which does not operate the
auto drain mechanism will remain in the bowl. It is recommended to release the residual condensate
manually at the end of the working day.
3) For models with an element service indicator or clogging switch, as the element becomes more clogged,
the indicator will display an increasing level of red. Be sure to replace the element before the level of red
reaches the top of the indicator.
4) For the product equipped with a clogging switch, replace the element even if it has been used for 2 years
or less when the installed auto switch (SW) is detected.
