The AirTAC Airtac GAF Filter GAF300C10W 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 3/8" ports and a 60 cc drain bowl. It is a filter only — it does not regulate or set pressure.
The GAF300C10W is a genuine AirTAC air filter that spins incoming air to throw liquid water and solid particles into its 60 cc metal drain bowl, while the 5 um HDPE element traps fine grain. It is a filter only, with no regulator, no pressure gauge, and no lubricator, so it cleans the air but never sets or controls pressure.
This model uses a 3/8in port and weighs 360 g, placing it in the GAF300 size class. The metal bowl is a build choice for the environment, and the 5 um element suits lines feeding precision valves or instruments, though it will need more frequent element service than a 40 um unit.

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.

Protect precision pneumatic valves and positioners on a machining cell with 5 um filtration, keeping fine abrasive grain out of tight clearances.
Feed clean, dry air to spray equipment in a finishing line, where the 5 um element and metal bowl stand up to a shop environment.
Supply a multi-fixture assembly bench with filtered air, using the 60 cc bowl to collect condensate between shifts with the semi-auto drain.
Choose the GAF300 body for 1/4in to 1/2in ports; it offers a 60 cc drain bowl and a flow curve plotted to 6000 L/min, a step up from the GAF200's 3000 L/min envelope. The metal bowl here is a build choice, and the 5 um element is for finer filtration, while the included bracket supports the 360 g unit. The semi-auto plus manual drain gives you both automatic dumping and a manual override, and the PT thread standard must match your fittings; if you also need a set pressure, use the matching GAFR300-10 filter-regulator instead. The 1.5 MPa proof pressure is about 1.67x the 0.9 MPa top of the working range, a burst-test margin and not a license to run above the rated range.
Quick checklist
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.
The GAF300C10W is a filter only with a 3/8in port, 5 um filtering grade, and a 60 cc drain bowl, weighing 360 g. Its working pressure range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi) and a temperature range of -5 to 70 C. The flow curve is plotted to 6000 L/min.
The C code specifies a metal bowl, which is a build and environment choice. The common specification is identical for PC, nylon, and metal bowls, so confirm compatibility for aggressive surroundings, as no temperature, chemical, or impact data is printed. This unit also includes the mounting bracket and uses a PT port thread.
