Airtac GAF Filter GAF20006W
The AirTAC Airtac GAF Filter GAF20006W 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 1/8" ports and a 25 cc drain bowl. It is a filter only — it does not regulate or set pressure.

About the Airtac GAF Filter GAF20006W
The GAF20006W is a compact air filter that spins incoming air to throw liquid water and solid particles into its 25 cc drain bowl, while the 5 um HDPE element traps fine grain. This 1/8in port unit weighs just 200 g, making it the lightest body in the GAF range for protecting a single small valve or jig.
This filter-only device has no regulator, no pressure gauge and no lubricator. It cleans the air but does not control pressure. The 5 um element suits precision applications, though it will need more frequent service than the standard 40 um version.

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 GAFR200 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 GAFR200-06 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.

Where the Airtac GAF Filter GAF20006W Is Used
Single Valve Protection
Mount this filter directly upstream of one precision solenoid valve on a small indexing table. The 5 um element keeps fine abrasive dust from scoring the valve spool, extending its service life.
Bench Pneumatic Tool
Feed a handheld air screwdriver or small sanding tool on a workbench. The 25 cc bowl captures the water from a short compressor line, and the manual drain lets you purge it at the end of each shift.
Instrument Air Pre-Filter
Use it ahead of a sensitive pressure sensor or a small flow meter in a test rig. The 5 um element removes the fine rust and pipe scale that could otherwise drift into the instrument port.
Is the Airtac GAF Filter GAF20006W the Right Filter?
Choose the GAF200 body for the smallest pneumatic circuits, with 1/8in ports and a 25 cc bowl that suits light condensate loads. The PC bowl is the standard build, the semi-auto plus manual drain gives you both automatic purging and a backup lever, and the included bracket simplifies panel mounting. The 5 um element traps finer particles than the 40 um default, ideal for sensitive valves, while the PT thread matches common local fittings. If you also need a set pressure, step up to the GAFR200-06 filter-regulator instead. The 3000 L/min flow envelope is twice the scale of the unstocked GAF100, giving you a clear sizing margin for small actuators.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (1/8" here)
- ✓ Element 40 µm (general) or 5 µm (fine)
- ✓ Bowl material: PC (blank), Metal (C), Nylon (N)
- ✓ Drain: semi-auto + manual, or automatic
- ✓ Bracket kept or removed (J)
- ✓ Need pressure control too? Use GAFR200
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Install with the airflow arrow: IN to OUT, bowl accessible.
- check Place the filter FIRST in the air-prep train, ahead of any regulator or lubricator.
- check Keep pressure at or below the 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof limit.
- check Drain condensate before the 25 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 200 g unit on its bracket, not on the tubing.
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 GAFR200-06 filter-regulator as your air-prep needs grow.
Airtac GAF Filter GAF20006W FAQ
It is a filter-only unit with a 5 um HDPE element, a working pressure range of 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and a temperature range of -5 to 70 C. The drain bowl holds 25 cc and the unit weighs 200 g. The flow curve is plotted to 3000 L/min.
The W indicates a 5 um filter element instead of the standard 40 um. This finer grade traps much smaller particles, making it suitable for precision valves or instrument air, but the element will load up faster and need more frequent replacement.
