SMC 10-IR1020-F01B | Clean Room Precision Regulator IR1000 Series 1/8" Port Bracket Mount Set Pressure 0.005-0.2 MPa

The SMC 10-IR1020-F01B is a clean room specification precision regulator from the IR1000 series with 1/8" ports and bracket mounting. Part number decoded: IR = precision regulator, 1020 = IR1000 series size 20 (compact body), F01 = 1/8" female NPT port size, B = bracket mount option. The 10- clean series prefix ensures fluorine grease, controlled assembly, and anti-static packaging for particle generation grade 1 environments. Precision regulators are critical in clean room pneumatic systems where standard regulators cannot maintain the tight pressure tolerances required for sensitive processes.

What makes a precision regulator different from a standard regulator? The IR1000 series delivers set pressure accuracy within ±0.2% of full scale and features a relieving function that bleeds excess downstream pressure when supply fluctuates. This level of control is essential for applications including semiconductor wafer handling pneumatics, precision dispensing, analytical instrument gas supply, and low-pressure clean room actuator control where even small pressure variations affect process quality. The set pressure range of 0.005 to 0.2 MPa covers ultra-low-pressure applications that standard regulators cannot reliably regulate.

The compact IR1020 body with bracket mount (B) enables panel or equipment frame installation. For higher flow capacity, the IR2000 and IR3000 series offer larger body sizes with increased Cv values. For higher set pressure ranges, the IR1020-F01 without the 20 designation covers 0.005 to 0.8 MPa. Compatible with SMC clean series air preparation equipment including 10-AF micro mist separators and 10-AFD super micro mist separators. Clean series (10-) fluorine grease, Particle Grade 1. RoHS compliant.
