Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C25W
The AirTAC Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C25W 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 GAF600C25W
The GAF600C25W is a heavy-duty air filter that spins incoming air to throw liquid water and solid particles into its 205 cc metal drain bowl, while the 5 um HDPE element traps fine grain. It is a filter only - it has no regulator, no gauge, and no lubricator, so it cleans the air but never sets pressure.
This 1in-port model weighs 1040 g and is built for high-flow machine headers or multi-station lines. The metal bowl and included bracket suit fixed industrial installations, and the semi-auto plus manual drains give you both automatic condensate release and a manual backup for scheduled maintenance.

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 GAF600C25W Is Used
Machine Header Feed
Protect a multi-station assembly machine by filtering the main 1in air header before it branches to individual valves and cylinders.
High-Flow Tooling
Supply clean air to a bank of pneumatic tools on a production line where 5 um filtration guards precision tool internals from fine abrasive dust.
Central Plant Air
Install at the drop point for a plant air ring main, using the 205 cc bowl to handle condensate from long distribution runs before it reaches process equipment.
Is the Airtac GAF Filter GAF600C25W the Right Filter?
Choose the GAF600C25W when your line needs 1in ports and the largest condensate capacity in the GAF family. The metal bowl is the only option on this body, and the 5 um element traps finer particles than the standard 40 um for sensitive downstream valves. The included bracket supports the 1040 g unit, and the PT thread standard must match your existing fittings. If you also need pressure control, step up to the GAFR600-25 filter-regulator instead. The 205 cc drain bowl holds about 8x the condensate of a GAF200's 25 cc bowl, so this unit needs far fewer manual drain interventions.
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 GAF600C25W FAQ
This filter has a 5 um HDPE element, a working pressure range of 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and a temperature range of -5 to 70 C. Its metal drain bowl holds 205 cc and the unit weighs 1040 g, with a flow curve plotted to 12000 L/min.
The GAF600C25W is a filter only - it removes water and solids but does not regulate pressure. The GAFR600-25 combines the same filtering capability with a built-in regulator, so it can both clean and set the downstream pressure. If your application needs pressure control, choose the GAFR version.
