About the Airtac AF1500/2000 Filter AF1500
AF1500 is the smallest body in the AF/BF family, built around PT1/8 ports for compact panels and low-flow branches. Its 15 cc bowl and standard 40 um element strip condensate and pipeline dirt, the drain is signalled by the differential indicator and emptied by hand, and the unit is rated 0.15 to 1.0 MPa (20 to 145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
AirTAC writes this size as AF1500C in the catalog tables; the order code here is given without the C. Service runs from -5 to +70 C provided the air never freezes, and the element is the 40 um standard grade - only the W suffix on AF1500W selects the finer 5 um element.

How to choose
AF1500 is the pick when piping is PT1/8 and space is minimal. AF2000 keeps the A-line concept but enlarges the port to PT1/4, BF2000 brings the bigger B-line bowl on that same port, and BF3000 or BF4000 serve PT3/8 and PT1/2 lines. If the branch needs finer air on the same PT1/8 footprint, order AF1500W; thread variants follow the G and T suffixes in the ordering table.
Applications
Bench and jig setups
Feed small PT1/8 pneumatic tooling on workbenches and jigs, where the compact A-line body and hand-drained 15 cc bowl keep the setup tidy.
Compact packaging machines
Package the AF1500 into tight machine frames with PT1/8 branch lines, using the differential indicator to time manual bowl draining between shifts.
Instrument air branches
Supply pneumatic gauges and pilot devices from a branch filtered by the 40 um element, with the unit working across 0.15 to 1.0 MPa.
FAQ
What are the key figures of the AF1500?
PT1/8 ports, 40 um standard element, 15 cc drain bowl, differential plus manual drain, operating pressure 0.15 to 1.0 MPa (20 to 145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), fluid air, temperature -5 to +70 C with no freezing.
The catalog shows AF1500C - what should I order?
The catalog writes the size as AF1500C, while the order code on this page is given without the C for the same unit; a G or T ending selects G or NPT thread instead of the standard PT.
