Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C20JW
The AirTAC Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C20JW 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 3/4" ports and a 205 cc drain bowl. It is a filter only — it does not regulate or set pressure.

About the Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C20JW
The GAF600C20JW is a heavy-duty air filter that spins incoming air to throw liquid water and solid particles into its 205 cc metal bowl, while the 5 um HDPE element traps fine grain. It is a filter only - there is no regulator, gauge, or lubricator on this unit.
Built for 3/4" lines, this 1040 g filter protects downstream valves and cylinders from contamination. The metal bowl suits demanding environments, and the 5 um element catches far finer particles than the standard 40 um for precision applications.

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 GAFR600 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 GAFR600-20 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 GAF600C20JW Is Used
Machine Tool Header
Feed a central header supplying multiple pneumatic cylinders on a large machining center. The 3/4" port and 205 cc bowl handle the volume and condensate load of continuous operation.
Instrument Air Feed
Protect precision measuring equipment or air bearings with the 5 um element. The fine filtration removes particles that could affect sensitive downstream components.
Multi-Station Assembly Line
Supply a multi-station assembly line where several valves and actuators share one air source. The high flow envelope and large bowl reduce maintenance frequency across the whole system.
Is the Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C20JW the Right Filter?
Choose the GAF600 body for high-flow 3/4" or 1" lines where a large 205 cc drain bowl extends service intervals. The metal bowl is the only option on this size class, and the 5 um element is ideal for precision valves or instrument air. This model ships without a mounting bracket (J code) for panel-mount installations, and the PT thread standard matches common regional fittings. If your line also needs pressure control, step up to the GAFR600-20 filter-regulator instead. With a 12000 L/min flow envelope versus GAF500's 9000 L/min, this unit delivers about 1.33x the sizing capacity of the next body down.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (3/4" here)
- ✓ Element 40 µm (general) or 5 µm (fine)
- ✓ Bowl material: Metal (C) only
- ✓ Drain: semi-auto + manual, or automatic
- ✓ Bracket kept or removed (J)
- ✓ Need pressure control too? Use GAFR600
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 205 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 1040 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 GAFR600-20 filter-regulator as your air-prep needs grow.
Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C20JW FAQ
This is a filter-only unit with a 5 um filtering grade. Working pressure range 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. It has a 205 cc drain bowl, weighs 1040 g, and the flow curve is plotted to 12000 L/min.
The J code means the mounting bracket is omitted. This suits panel-mount installations or setups where you already have an existing bracket. You must provide your own mounting solution, as the 1040 g unit cannot be supported by the tubing alone.
