Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR20008SWK
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR20008SWK 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 5 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 GAFR20008SWK
The GAFR20008SWK is a genuine AirTAC filter & regulator, combining both functions in a single body to condition air for small pneumatic circuits. It handles a 1/4in port and delivers a regulated output from 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), with a 5 um element for finer filtration.
This unit's diversion structure spins incoming air to separate liquid water and solid particles into its 25 cc condensate bowl, while the balanced, self-locking regulator maintains a steady outlet pressure. Weighing just 290 g, it suits compact machines where space is tight, and the included bracket simplifies mounting.

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 GAFR20008SWK Is Used
Precision valve control
Feed a 5 um-filtered, regulated air supply to a precision pneumatic valve on a small assembly fixture, protecting its internal pilot from particle wear.
Single actuator station
Power a compact clamping cylinder on a benchtop work cell, using the included bracket to mount the 290 g unit directly to the frame.
Instrument air prep
Condition air for a sensitive pressure sensor or gauge in a lab setup, where the 5 um element removes fine particulates that could affect readings.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR20008SWK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFR200 for small actuators, jigs, or single tools where a 1/4in port and 290 g mass fit the layout. The PC bowl (blank code) is the standard build; the 5 um element (W) traps finer particles than the 40 um default, making it suitable for precision valves or instrument air, though it will need more frequent service. This model ships with the mounting bracket, a circular gauge reading MPa/psi, and both semi-auto and manual drains for flexible condensate removal. The K code adds a reverse-flow (reflux) valve as an ordering difference. If your line needs lubrication downstream, order the matching GAFC200-08 combination instead. With a 1.0 MPa max supply, you have about 0.1 MPa of headroom above the 0.9 MPa top of the regulated 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 GAFR20008SWK FAQ
The GAFR20008SWK operates from 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), with a maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). It is rated for -5 to 70 C and has a 25 cc drain bowl, weighing 290 g.
The K code indicates a reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted to the GAFR20008SWK. It is an ordering difference from models without this valve; its specific function is detailed in the full catalogue.
