The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR200C08ALJW 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 - 0.4 MPa (20 - 58 psi). It has no lubricator, so it adds no oil to the airflow.
The GAFR200C08ALJW is a filter and pressure regulator combined into a single body, saving rail space and reducing potential leak points compared to separate units. This 1/4in version operates in the lower 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) band and comes with a 5 um element for finer filtration.
Its metal bowl and automatic drain make it suited for applications where condensate needs to be expelled without manual intervention. The unit weighs 290 g and includes a circular gauge with an MPa/psi scale so the set pressure is always visible.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC GAFR catalogue (pages 235-236). Air must not freeze in the unit. The fitted circular gauge reads in MPa / psi, set by the PT thread code. This unit filters and regulates only; it does not add lubrication.

The filter and the regulator are ONE body here — there is no separate GAF filter or GAR regulator part to assemble. Need lubrication downstream too? Add a lubricator by ordering the matching GAFC200-08 F.R.L. combination instead.
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.

Feed a single pneumatic clamp or small indexing table where a 1/4in line and lower pressure are sufficient. The 5 um element protects sensitive pilot valves from fine particles.
Provide filtered, regulated air to a benchtop test rig or analytical instrument. The automatic drain keeps the metal bowl clear of condensate during long experiments.
Supply a blow-off gun or small air tool on a service cart. The compact 290 g body mounts easily to a frame, and the gauge shows the lower pressure range clearly.
Choose this GAFR200 when your line is 1/4in and you need both filtration and regulation in one compact package. The metal bowl (C) is a build choice; the automatic drain (A) handles wet lines, while the 5 um element (W) suits precision equipment. Note the J code means no mounting bracket is included, and the L type caps the outlet at 0.4 MPa - if your machine may ever need more, select the standard S type instead. For lines needing oil downstream, order the matching GAFC200-08 combination. With a 1.0 MPa max supply, you have about 0.6 MPa of headroom above this unit's 0.4 MPa regulated ceiling.
Quick checklist
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.
This filter & regulator has a 1/4in port, a working pressure range of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), a max pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi), and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). It operates from -5 to 70 C and must not freeze. The metal drain bowl holds 25 cc, and the unit weighs 290 g.
The L designates a lower-pressure regulator type, with a maximum regulated output of 0.4 MPa instead of the standard 0.9 MPa. This is ideal for delicate applications, but if your system might require higher pressure later, the standard S type would be a safer choice.
