The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR200C08ALNW 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 GAFR200C08ALNW is a compact filter and regulator combined into a single body, so it cleans incoming air and sets a steady outlet pressure without needing separate units. This model uses a 1/4in port and a lower-pressure range of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), with a 5 um element that traps fine particles for sensitive equipment.
The metal bowl holds 25 cc of condensate and uses an automatic drain, while the unit weighs 290 g. Because the filter and regulator share one housing, there are fewer potential leak points and less rail space required compared to a separate filter plus regulator setup.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC GAFR catalogue (pages 235-236). Air must not freeze in the unit. No gauge is supplied with this model — the gauge connection on a GAFR200 is 1/8" if you add one. 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 positioning cylinder on an assembly bench, where the 5 um element protects fine valve internals from abrasive particles.
Supply clean, regulated air to a small air tool or manual work station, with the automatic drain keeping the 25 cc metal bowl from overflowing during long shifts.
Provide filtered air at a stable low pressure to a lab fixture or test rig, where the lower 0.4 MPa ceiling prevents over-pressurizing delicate components.
Choose this GAFR200 for small jigs or single actuators where 1/4in ports and a compact 290 g body fit tight spaces. The metal bowl suits demanding environments, while the 5 um element provides finer filtration than the standard 40 um, though it will need more frequent service. The automatic drain handles wet lines without manual attention, and the included bracket simplifies mounting; the lack of a gauge means you'll need to add one via the 1/8in connection to read set pressure. This lower-pressure version tops out at 0.4 MPa, so if your machine may ever need more, select the standard 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 the 0.4 MPa top of this unit's regulated range.
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 pressure range of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), a maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi), and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). It operates from -5 to 70 C, has a 25 cc drain bowl, and weighs 290 g.
The metal bowl (C) is a build choice for environments where a transparent PC or nylon bowl might not be preferred; the common pressure and temperature specs are identical for all bowl materials. The 'N' after the port code means no gauge is fitted, so you'll need to add one via the 1/8in gauge connection to monitor outlet pressure.
