The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR200C08ASW 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.
The GAFR200C08ASW is a genuine AirTAC filter & regulator with both functions in one body, so it replaces a separate filter plus a regulator and cuts the number of pipe joints to seal. It handles a 1/4in port, works across 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), and uses a 5 um element to trap fine particles.
Its metal bowl holds 25 cc of condensate, and the automatic drain clears it without manual attention. The pressed-in self-locking knob resists set-pressure drift from vibration, while the diversion structure spins the air to separate liquid water and solid grain into the bowl. Weighing 290 g, it suits small jigs and single actuators.

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 jig or fixture on an assembly bench. The 5 um element protects small precision valves from fine abrasive particles, while the regulator holds a steady clamp force.
Power a compact test rig that needs clean, regulated air at a workbench. The 290 g body mounts easily on a small panel, and the automatic drain keeps the 25 cc bowl from flooding during long test cycles.
Supply one small cylinder or air tool on a light-duty line. The filter removes water and solids, the regulator sets the outlet pressure, and the self-locking knob holds the setting despite machine vibration.
Choose the body and port first: GAFR200 with a 1/4in port is the smallest class here, and its flow curve is plotted to 2000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet, so it fits low-consumption stations rather than machine headers. The metal bowl (C) is a build choice for the condensate bowl, and the automatic drain (A) suits unattended or wet lines. This model keeps the mounting bracket, has the circular gauge fitted with an MPa/psi scale, and uses a 5 um element for finer filtration. The PT thread matches the gauge scale. If the line needs oil downstream, order the matching GAFC200-08 combination instead, since this unit does not lubricate. A 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.1 MPa above the 0.9 MPa top of the range, so plan the inlet pressure near the maximum for full output.
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.
Working pressure range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi). Maximum pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi). Temperature range is -5 to 70 C and must not freeze. The drain bowl holds 25 cc and the unit weighs 290 g. It has a 1/4in port and a 5 um filter element.
The automatic drain clears condensate from the 25 cc metal bowl without manual intervention, which is useful for unattended operation or wet compressed-air lines. Models without the A code ship with both a semi-auto drain and a manual drain, so you would empty the bowl by hand or via the semi-auto function.
