Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C25AW
The AirTAC Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C25AW 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" ports and a 205 cc drain bowl. It is a filter only — it does not regulate or set pressure.

About the Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C25AW
The GAF600C25AW is a filter-only unit from AirTAC's GAF600 size class, built to strip liquid water and solid particles from compressed air lines using a diversion structure that spins the flow before the HDPE element traps fine grain. It carries a 1in PT port, a 5 um filter element, and a 205 cc metal drain bowl, with the automatic drain handling condensate release.
This model weighs 1040 g and is rated for 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) working pressure with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, operating from -5 to 70 C. As a filter only, it does not regulate pressure, so pair it with a separate regulator or the matching GAFR600-25 if your line needs pressure control.

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 GAFR600-25 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 GAF600C25AW Is Used
Machine Header Feed
Protect a multi-station assembly machine by filtering the main 1in header line, removing water and scale before they reach precision valves and cylinders.
Plant Air Distribution
Install at the branch takeoff for a production cell, using the 5 um element to safeguard downstream instrumentation and control circuits from fine particulate.
High-Cycle Automation
Feed a bank of pneumatic actuators on a high-speed packaging line, where the large 205 cc bowl and automatic drain reduce maintenance interruptions.
Is the Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C25AW the Right Filter?
Choose the GAF600 body when your main line or machine header uses 3/4in or 1in ports and needs the 205 cc drain bowl to minimize service stops; the 12000 L/min flow envelope gives ample headroom for multi-station systems. The metal bowl suits demanding environments, while the automatic drain (A) removes condensate without manual attention, and the 5 um element (W) protects precision components downstream. The included bracket simplifies mounting, and the PT thread standard must match your existing fittings. For pressure control, step up to the GAFR600-25 filter-regulator instead of expecting this filter to set pressure. With a 205 cc bowl versus GAF200's 25 cc, this unit holds about 8.2x the condensate between drain cycles.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (1" 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 GAFR600-25 filter-regulator as your air-prep needs grow.
Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C25AW FAQ
The GAF600C25AW is a filter-only unit with a 5 um HDPE element, 1in PT port, and 205 cc metal 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 1040 g and has a flow curve plotted to 12000 L/min.
The automatic drain (A) on the GAF600C25AW releases accumulated condensate without manual intervention, making it ideal for unattended or wet lines. This contrasts with the semi-auto+manual drain option, which requires periodic manual opening to empty the bowl.
