Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR20008ASK
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR20008ASK is a genuine two-in-one filter & regulator — a diversion-type water/particulate filter and a balanced pressure regulator built into ONE body. It has 1/4" ports, a 40 µm filter element and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi). It has no lubricator, so it adds no oil to the airflow.

About the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR20008ASK
The GAFR20008ASK combines a 40 um air filter and a pressure regulator in a single body, saving rail space and reducing potential leak points compared to separate units. This 290 g unit with a 1/4in port handles light-duty pneumatic circuits, delivering a steady 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) outlet.
Its diversion structure spins incoming air to separate liquid water and solid particles into the 25 cc condensate bowl, while the balanced, self-locking regulator maintains the set pressure despite supply fluctuations. The automatic drain clears accumulated condensate without manual intervention, making this model suitable for hard-to-reach installations.

Figures are the end of the flow curve plotted in the AirTAC catalogue at 0.7 MPa inlet pressure — a sizing envelope for comparing bodies, not a rated flow. Read the catalogue curve for a real duty point. Outlet pressure falls as flow rises, so size a body with headroom above your peak demand.

Where the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR20008ASK Is Used
Precision Fixtures
Feed a single pneumatic clamp or positioning fixture on an assembly bench where clean, regulated air at a stable pressure prevents workpiece shift.
Test Benches
Supply instrument air to a small leak tester or calibration rig that needs consistent pressure without the bulk of a larger filter-regulator.
Maintenance Stations
Protect a portable air tool or blow gun on a maintenance cart, filtering water and particulates while keeping the outlet pressure within a safe range.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR20008ASK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFR200 for small jigs, single actuators, or point-of-use filtration where space is tight. The 1/4in port suits low-flow applications, while the included mounting bracket simplifies panel installation. This unit ships with a PC bowl, 40 um element, and a circular gauge reading MPa/psi.
The automatic drain (A) eliminates manual draining, and the reverse-flow valve (K) is fitted as an ordering option. For lines needing lubrication downstream, order the matching GAFC200-08 combination instead. Note that the 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.1 MPa above the 0.9 MPa top of the range.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (1/4" here)
- ✓ Standard 0.9 MPa or lower-pressure 0.4 MPa
- ✓ Bowl material: PC (blank), Metal (C), Nylon (N)
- ✓ Drain: semi-auto + manual, or automatic
- ✓ Element 40 µm or 5 µm
- ✓ Bracket kept or removed (J); add a lubricator = GAFC
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Install with the airflow arrow: IN to OUT, gauge/knob accessible.
- check Keep inlet pressure at or below 1.0 MPa (145 psi).
- check Set pressure with the pressed-in self-locking knob; pull to adjust, press to lock.
- check Drain condensate before the 25 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 290 g unit on its bracket, not on the tubing.
This is a filter and regulator only — it delivers filtered, pressure-set air with no added oil. If a downstream tool needs lubrication, add a separate lubricator or order the GAFC200-08 combination; do not expect an oil mist from this unit.
Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR20008ASK FAQ
Working pressure range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), with a maximum supply pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). Operating temperature is -5 to 70 C. The drain bowl holds 25 cc and the unit weighs 290 g.
The K indicates a reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted to the unit. This is an ordering option that adds the valve to the assembly. The catalogue does not detail its function, so treat it as a build difference from models without the K code.
