Airtac GAF Filter GAF30010A
The AirTAC Airtac GAF Filter GAF30010A 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 3/8" ports and a 60 cc drain bowl. It is a filter only — it does not regulate or set pressure.

About the Airtac GAF Filter GAF30010A
The GAF30010A is a genuine AirTAC air filter that cleans compressed air by spinning it through a diversion structure, throwing liquid water and solid particles into a 60 cc drain bowl. It has no regulator, no pressure gauge, and no lubricator - it only filters, protecting downstream valves and tools from contamination.
This model uses a 3/8in port and a 40 um HDPE filter core, with an automatic drain that purges condensate without manual attention. The polycarbonate bowl holds 60 cc of liquid, and the complete unit weighs 360 g, placing it in the mid-size GAF300 class for branch lines feeding multiple devices.

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 GAFR300-10 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 GAF30010A Is Used
CNC machine air supply
Feed a 3/8in line to a CNC lathe's door cylinders and coolant valves, keeping water and scale out of precision solenoids.
Pneumatic test bench
Protect a lab test fixture with multiple small actuators, where the 40 um element stops pipe scale from jamming fine orifices.
Assembly line branch
Supply a group of air tools on a work cell, with the automatic drain handling condensate from humid plant air.
Is the Airtac GAF Filter GAF30010A the Right Filter?
Choose the GAF300 body when your branch line needs 3/8in ports and moderate air volume, stepping down from a GAF400 (100 cc bowl, curve to 8000 L/min) or up from a GAF200 (25 cc bowl, curve to 3000 L/min). The PC bowl suits general industrial environments, while the automatic drain handles wet or unattended lines without manual checks. The included mounting bracket supports the 360 g unit, and the 40 um element balances protection with low pressure loss; the PT thread matches standard local fittings. If you need to set a downstream pressure, pair this filter with a separate GAR regulator or upgrade to the GAFR300-10 filter-regulator. The GAF300's 60 cc drain bowl holds about 2.4x the condensate of a GAF200's 25 cc bowl, meaning roughly 2.4x longer between manual drain checks.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (3/8" 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 GAFR300
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 60 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 360 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 GAFR300-10 filter-regulator as your air-prep needs grow.
Airtac GAF Filter GAF30010A FAQ
The GAF30010A is a filter-only unit with a 40 um HDPE element, 3/8in PT ports, and a 60 cc polycarbonate 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 360 g and has a flow curve plotted to 6000 L/min.
The automatic drain opens automatically to expel accumulated condensate from the 60 cc bowl, so you do not need to manually operate a drain valve. This suits wet lines or installations where regular maintenance access is difficult. The unit still filters water and solids only; it does not regulate pressure.
