Airtac GAF Filter GAF200N08
The AirTAC Airtac GAF Filter GAF200N08 is a genuine compressed-air filter. Its diversion structure spins the air to separate liquid water and trap solid particles down to 40 µm, protecting downstream valves and tools. It has 1/4" ports and a 25 cc drain bowl. It is a filter only — it does not regulate or set pressure.

About the Airtac GAF Filter GAF200N08
The GAF200N08 is a genuine AirTAC air filter that spins incoming air to throw liquid water and solid particles into its 25 cc drain bowl, while the 40 um HDPE element traps fine grain. It is a filter only - it has no regulator, no pressure gauge, and no adjusting knob, so it cleans the air but never sets or controls pressure.
This 1/4in port model weighs just 200 g and comes with a nylon bowl plus both semi-auto and manual drains fitted. The nylon bowl is a build choice for your environment; confirm compatibility for aggressive surroundings since the rated temperature range is -5 to 70 C and the unit must not freeze.

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 GAFR200-08 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 GAF200N08 Is Used
Protect a single valve
Mount the GAF200N08 ahead of one solenoid valve on a small fixture. The 40 um element and 25 cc bowl keep water and rust flakes from jamming the valve spool.
Small workshop bench
Fit this filter on a bench air line feeding a blow gun or a small cylinder. The semi-auto drain releases condensate automatically while the manual drain lets you purge the bowl during maintenance.
Short branch line
Use the GAF200N08 on a short branch feeding a pressure switch or a sensor. Clean air at 1/4in port keeps the sensing element free of water droplets and particles.
Is the Airtac GAF Filter GAF200N08 the Right Filter?
Choose the GAF200 body for small jigs, single valves, or short branch lines where 1/4in ports match your tubing. The nylon bowl suits applications where you prefer its material properties; the included mounting bracket supports the 200 g unit properly, so do not hang it from the piping. This model ships with the standard 40 um element for general workshop air, and the semi-auto drain plus manual drain give you both automatic condensate release and a manual override. The PT thread standard is for your port fittings; there is no gauge scale because this is a filter only. If you also need a set pressure, step up to the GAFR200-08 filter-regulator instead. The proof pressure of 1.5 MPa against the 0.9 MPa working maximum gives about a 1.67x margin, a burst-test figure, not a working pressure.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (1/4" 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 GAFR200-08 filter-regulator as your air-prep needs grow.
Airtac GAF Filter GAF200N08 FAQ
The GAF200N08 is a filter only with a 40 um HDPE element, a 1/4in PT port, and a 25 cc nylon drain bowl. Working pressure is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and temperature range is -5 to 70 C. The unit weighs 200 g and its flow curve is plotted to 3000 L/min.
The GAF200N08 ships with both drain types fitted. The semi-auto drain releases condensate automatically when the air is off, while the manual drain lets you purge the bowl on demand. This gives you flexibility for intermittent use where automatic draining during operation is not needed.
