Airtac GAF Filter GAF200N08AW
The AirTAC Airtac GAF Filter GAF200N08AW 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 1/4" ports and a 25 cc drain bowl. It is a filter only — it does not regulate or set pressure.

About the Airtac GAF Filter GAF200N08AW
The GAF200N08AW is a genuine AirTAC air filter that spins incoming air to throw liquid water and solid particles into its 25 cc nylon drain bowl, while the 5 um HDPE element traps fine grain. It is a filter only, with no regulator or gauge, and it protects downstream valves and tools from water and dirt.
This model uses a 1/4in port, weighs 200 g, and is rated for 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) working pressure with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure. The automatic drain clears condensate without manual attention, and the included mounting bracket suits panel or frame installation.

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.

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 GAF200N08AW Is Used
Protect a precision jig
Feed a clean 1/4in line to a small pneumatic jig or fixture, where the 5 um element stops fine abrasive grain from wearing locating pins and bushings.
Guard a single valve
Mount this filter ahead of one solenoid valve or air cylinder to keep water and rust scale out of the pilot and seals, extending service life.
Instrument air pre-filter
Use the 5 um element as a first stage for a sensitive pressure sensor or flow meter, removing particles that could clog or drift the reading.
Is the Airtac GAF Filter GAF200N08AW the Right Filter?
Choose the GAF200 body for small jigs or single-valve protection, where the 1/4in port and 200 g mass keep the footprint light. The nylon bowl is a build choice for your environment, and the automatic drain suits wet or unattended lines. The 5 um element traps finer particles than the standard 40 um, while the included bracket and PT thread complete the package. If you need pressure control, step up to the matching GAFR200-08 filter-regulator. With a 25 cc drain bowl, this unit holds about 2.4x less condensate than a GAF300's 60 cc bowl, so plan for 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 GAF200N08AW FAQ
This AirTAC filter has a 5 um HDPE element, a 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) working range, a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and a -5 to 70 C temperature range. The nylon drain bowl holds 25 cc, and the unit weighs 200 g with a 1/4in PT port.
The A code means an automatic drain that expels accumulated condensate without manual intervention, ideal for wet lines or unattended operation. It replaces the semi-auto and manual drains found on blank models, so you do not need to check the bowl as often.
