The AirTAC Airtac BF Air Preparation Filter BF2000MWT 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 BF2000MWT is a compact B-line air filter from AirTAC. It removes water and particulate from compressed air only - it does not regulate pressure and does not lubricate. This configuration uses the larger B-line body with a 1/4 in NPT thread, a 5 um filter element for finer filtration than the standard 40 um grade, and a manual drain you operate by hand to empty the PC bowl. A high-strength plastic protective cover shields the bowl. Maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and the ambient and media temperature range is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing. This is a genuine AirTAC part in the compact A/B line, not the larger G/GA series. The B-line filter is also available in 1/8, 3/8 and 1/2 in sizes, with G or PT thread options, differential-pressure or automatic drain, and a 40 um standard element as alternates. Flow is not published as a single rated figure, so contact us and we will confirm the datasheet figures for your sizing 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 B-line BF body when your 1/4 in line needs the larger compact frame; the A-line AF2000 covers the same port in a smaller body. Pick the 5 um W element, as coded here, when downstream equipment needs finer filtration than the standard 40 um grade. The M drain means manual - select the A-suffix automatic drain if the bowl cannot be drained by hand on schedule. Thread is NPT in this code; PT is the standard and G is available to order. Because flow is not a single published rating, ask us to confirm the datasheet figures before ordering.
Installed on the 1/4 in air line feeding directional valves and cylinders on packaging or assembly machines, the 5 um element removes water carryover and fine particulate that can score valve spools and foul seals. The manual drain is emptied during shift-start checks.
Mounted at a workshop wall drop or hose reel feeding impact wrenches, grinders and air ratchets, this filter keeps rust flakes and condensed water out of the tools. The bowl's protective cover guards against knock damage in a busy bay.
On a laboratory or quality-test bench supplied with 1/4 in NPT compressed air, the 5 um grade gives finer cleaning than a standard element ahead of sensitive instruments, gauges and small pneumatic fixtures. The manual drain suits intermittent, supervised use.
AirTAC does not publish flow for this filter as a single rated figure - actual flow depends on pressure and the restriction you can accept. Send us your line size and operating conditions and we will confirm the datasheet flow figures so you can size the unit correctly before ordering.
M is the drain: manual, so you open the drain by hand to empty collected water instead of relying on the default differential-pressure drain. W is the filter grade: a 5 um element instead of the standard 40 um. The port in this code is 1/4 in NPT; PT is the standard thread and G is available to order.
