The AirTAC BF Air Preparation Filter BF2000 is a genuine A/B-line filter with PT1/4" ports. It is the compact air-preparation line, with 40 um standard / 5 um optional filtration and high water-separation. Flow is confirmed from the datasheet on request.
The BF2000 is a compact B-line air filter from AirTAC. It removes water and particulate from compressed air and does nothing else: there is no pressure regulation and no lubrication in this unit. This configuration has a 1/4 inch PT threaded port, the standard 40 um filter element, and a differential-pressure drain with manual override in a polycarbonate bowl. Maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and the operating temperature range is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing). As a B-line unit it carries a high-strength plastic protective cover over the bowl.
This is a genuine AirTAC part from the compact A/B line, available in four body sizes: 1500 (1/8 inch), 2000 (1/4 inch), 3000 (3/8 inch) and 4000 (1/2 inch), each in PT as standard with G (BSPP) and NPT as order options. Rated flow is not published as a single figure, so we confirm the datasheet flow and sizing figures for you on request before you order.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC A/B-line air-preparation data. Drain type, filter grade, gauge and low-pressure options are set by the model-code suffix - see the description. Flow curves, weight and outline dimensions are not published in our data set — ask us and we confirm from the factory datasheet.
Choose the BF2000 when your line needs the larger B body at a 1/4 inch PT port; the smaller A-line BF1500 covers 1/8 inch, while BF3000 and BF4000 step up to 3/8 and 1/2 inch. The default drain is differential-pressure with manual override; pick the BF2000-A if you want an automatic drain instead. The 40 um element is standard for general air preparation, and the BF2000-W variant gives you a 5 um element for finer particulate removal. PT thread is standard, with G (BSPP) or NPT available to order. Because rated flow is not a single published rating for this family, ask us to confirm sizing against your flow requirement before ordering.
Installed on the air drop feeding a compact pneumatic punch or press station, the BF2000 strips water carryover and pipe-scale particulate before air reaches the press cylinders, with the manual drain letting an operator purge collected moisture at shift start.
Mounted ahead of the directional valves on a carton sealing or shrink-wrap conveyor line, the BF2000 protects cylinders and valve spools from rust particles and condensed water that cause sticking and seal wear.
Fitted at the point of use on a maintenance-shop air drop feeding impact wrenches and air ratchets, the BF2000 keeps moisture and debris out of the tools, with the protective cover shielding the bowl in a busy working area.
Flow for the BF2000 is not published as a single rated number, and we will not quote an invented figure. The body size (2000, 1/4 inch port) indicates its position in the AirTAC compact range, but the correct datasheet flow and pressure-drop figures depend on your operating conditions. Tell us your line pressure and required flow and we confirm the datasheet figures for you on request before you order.
The standard BF2000 has a differential-pressure drain with manual override, so collected condensate is expelled automatically as pressure differentials build and an operator can also drain the PC bowl by hand. Ordering the BF2000-A gives you a fully automatic drain instead. Separately, the standard element is 40 um; ordering the BF2000-W substitutes the optional 5 um element for finer filtration.
