Airtac GAF Filter GAF200N08A
The AirTAC Airtac GAF Filter GAF200N08A 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 GAF200N08A
The GAF200N08A is a genuine AirTAC air filter that spins incoming air to throw liquid water and solid particles into its 25 cc nylon bowl, then traps fine grain in the HDPE core. It cleans the air only; there is no regulator, gauge or lubricator on this unit.
This 1/4in model weighs just 200 g and comes with a 40 um element and an automatic drain. Being the lightest body in the GAF family, it suits compact machines where the piping, not the unit, must carry the weight.

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 GAF200N08A Is Used
Protect a single jig cylinder
Mount this 1/4in filter ahead of one pneumatic jig or fixture cylinder. The 40 um element stops rust and pipe scale from jamming the valve, and the automatic drain clears water without operator attention.
Guard a small bench press
Fit the GAF200N08A on the air feed to a benchtop press or small forming station. Its 200 g body is light enough for panel mounting, and the 25 cc bowl handles typical condensate between shifts.
Supply a portable air tool
Use this filter on a drop line feeding a pneumatic screwdriver or grinder. The diversion structure keeps water out of the tool's internal motor, extending service life on intermittent duty.
Is the Airtac GAF Filter GAF200N08A the Right Filter?
Choose the GAF200 body for 1/8in or 1/4in lines; step up to a GAF300 (60 cc bowl, 6000 L/min curve) when you need more condensate capacity or a 3/8in port. The nylon bowl is a build choice, so confirm compatibility with your environment. The A code gives you an automatic drain for unattended operation, while the included bracket lets you mount it securely. With a 40 um element and PT ports, this filter handles general shop air. If you also need to set pressure, use the matching GAFR200-08 filter-regulator instead. The 25 cc bowl holds about 2.4x less condensate than the GAF300's 60 cc bowl, so plan more frequent draining.
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 GAF200N08A FAQ
This is a filter-only unit 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 has an automatic drain.
The A code means the GAF200N08A has an automatic drain that expels collected condensate without manual intervention. This suits unattended or wet lines, unlike the blank drain option which ships with both semi-auto and manual drains for operator-controlled purging.
