The AirTAC Airtac GAF Air Filters GAF30015AWG is a genuine compressed-air filter. Its diversion structure spins the air to separate liquid water and trap solid particles down to 5 µm, protecting downstream valves and tools. It has 1/2" ports and a 60 cc drain bowl. It is a filter only — it does not regulate or set pressure.
The GAF30015AWG is a filter-only AirTAC unit: a diversion passage whirls the incoming air so liquid water and solid grain are flung out into the 60 cc drain bowl, while the 5 um HDPE element holds back the fine particles. It mounts on a 1/2in port and contains no regulator, no pressure gauge and no adjusting knob of any kind. This version pairs the standard PC bowl with an automatic drain, so condensate is ejected without anyone opening the valve - useful on lines that run unattended. The mounting bracket is included, the port thread is G standard, and the flow curve is plotted to 6000 L/min for sizing against neighbouring bodies. Downstream valves, cylinders and hand tools all benefit from the cleaner air.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC GAF catalogue (pages 225-226). Air must not freeze in the unit. This is a filter only — it separates water and solid particles but does not set or hold a downstream pressure. To regulate pressure as well, use the matching GAFR300 filter-regulator.

A GAF has no regulator and no pressure gauge — there is no type, gauge or reflux code. Need to regulate pressure too? The matching GAFR300-15 is the same filter with a built-in regulator.
Figures are the end of the flow curve plotted in the AirTAC catalogue — a sizing envelope for comparing bodies, not a rated flow. Read the catalogue curve for a real duty point. A filter this size drops less pressure at flow than the same-body GAFR filter-regulator, so match it to your peak demand.

Packaging heads jam when sludge reaches their directional valves. The 5 um element on this 1/2in filter catches the fine grit while the automatic drain clears collected water on its own during long shifts.
Clamp cylinders stick when dirt scores their bores. Feeding the clamping manifold through a GAF30015AWG strips water and particles first, keeping the 1/2in supply branch clean at typical shop pressures of 0.15-0.9 MPa.
A busy maintenance drop serves many hand tools a day. Mounting this filter at the drop point, bracket included, lets its 60 cc bowl collect moisture before it reaches impact wrenches and ratchets.
With its 1/2in port, this GAF300 sits in the middle of the AirTAC range: step up to a GAF400 if your curve needs more than 6000 L/min, or down to a GAF200 (3000 L/min envelope) for small single-tool branches. Choose the W element when precision valves or instrument take-offs need finer capture than the standard 40 um, accepting that the element will need attention sooner. The PC bowl is the everyday build; C metal and N nylon bowls exist for other surroundings, so confirm material compatibility where conditions are aggressive. Because this is the A code, condensate leaves the bowl automatically, and the included bracket keeps the 360 g unit off the tubing. If your line also needs a set pressure, add a GAR regulator or move to the matching GAFR300 filter-regulator - this body cleans only. Its 60 cc drain bowl holds about 2.4x the condensate of a GAF200's 25 cc bowl, so between drains it runs roughly 2.4x longer.
Quick checklist
This is a filter only — it removes water and solid particles but adds no pressure control and no lubrication. Add a GAR regulator, a GAL lubricator, or step up to the GAFR300-15 filter-regulator as your air-prep needs grow.
It is a compressed air filter with a 5 um HDPE element and a 1/2in G-thread port. Working pressure spans 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and the rated temperature range is -5 to 70 C. The drain bowl holds 60 cc of condensate and the unit weighs 360 g. Its flow curve is plotted to 6000 L/min; the catalogue gives no rated flow figure beyond that chart.
This model filters only: it separates water and solids and does nothing to the pressure downstream. A GAFR300 is the same body family with a built-in regulator, so it can hold a set outlet pressure - something the GAF30015AWG has no knob, spring or gauge to do. If your circuit needs pressure control, buy the GAFR or add a separate GAR regulator after this filter.
