Efficient and reliable components for water handling
SMC’s water equipment range provides reliable and easy-to-integrate components for industrial water systems where stable flow, clean water and controlled pressure are essential. Designed for general-purpose industrial applications, this portfolio supports accurate flow adjustment, effective water filtration and consistent pressure regulation, helping engineers build dependable and long-lasting industrial water treatment systems.
The range combines compact design, robust materials and straightforward operation, making it suitable for both new installations and retrofits in water supply lines, cooling circuits, washing processes and test equipment.
Flow controllers for accurate flow adjustment
For applications that require controlled and repeatable water flow, SMC offers a dedicated water flow controller. This solution allows smooth and precise regulation of flow rates, even when upstream pressure conditions change. It also helps maintain stable operating conditions across multiple lines, reducing manual adjustment and improving process consistency.
Designed for industrial environments, the flow controller supports a wide range of flow capacities and is suitable for automated systems where reliable flow adjustment is required. Its compact construction makes it easy to install in space-constrained panels or equipment layouts, while its stable control behaviour supports predictable system performance.
In-line water filters for effective water filtration
To protect equipment from contamination, the range includes an in-line water filter designed to remove solid particles from water circuits. This water filtration system helps prevent clogging, reduces wear on downstream components and contributes to longer service life across the installation.
Available with different mesh sizes, the industrial water strainer can be selected according to the required filtration level, making it suitable for a wide variety of industrial water equipment applications. Its compact, durable body allows easy integration into existing pipework while maintaining efficient water filtration under typical industrial operating conditions.
Water pressure regulators for stable pressure control
Completing the portfolio, the water pressure regulator ensures consistent downstream pressure in industrial water lines. By maintaining a stable pressure level, it protects sensitive equipment, reduces pressure fluctuations and improves overall system reliability.
Designed specifically for water applications, the regulator supports controlled pressure regulation in compact installations. Its straightforward adjustment mechanism allows operators to quickly set the required pressure, contributing to safer operation and more predictable performance in industrial water systems
Typical applications for SMC water equipment
SMC water equipment is suitable for a wide range of industrial water systems, including:
- Cooling circuits for moulds, rollers, tools and electronic components
- Process and test benches requiring stable, repeatable flow and pressure
- Washing and rinsing systems in manufacturing and surface treatment
- General water supply lines where filtration and pressure control protect sensitive devices
- Industrial utilities and auxiliary circuits that must remain reliable with minimal manual adjustment.
Why choose SMC for water equipment?
By combining flow controllers, in-line water filters and water pressure regulators, you can build a complete, easy-to manage water handling solution:
- Clean water thanks to in-line filtration that removes particles before they reach valves, sensors and cooling channels
- Stable flow delivered by an electronic controller that compensates for upstream pressure variations and supports remote control via IO-Link on compatible models
- Reliable pressure control using a compact regulator designed for water lines.
Together, these components will help you increase equipment availability, reduce maintenance and keep your industrial water systems running smoothly with minimal manual intervention.

Frequently asked questions about Water Equipment
What is water equipment used for?
Water equipment is used to control flow, filter particles and regulate pressure in industrial water systems. It helps keep water circuits stable, clean and reliable in applications such as cooling, washing and general water supply.
Can SMC water equipment be used in automated systems?
Yes, the water equipment range is suitable for automated industrial systems. Flow controllers can be integrated into control architectures and, depending on the model, support electrical control and communication for remote monitoring and adjustment.
Do I need all three components in one industrial water system?
Not necessarily. Flow controllers, water filters and pressure regulators can be used individually or combined, depending on the requirements of the water system and the level of control and protection needed.
