Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C08ALJW
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C08ALJW 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.

About the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C08ALJW
The GAFR300C08ALJW is a filter and regulator combined in a single body, cleaning incoming air and holding a steady outlet pressure without needing separate units. This version uses a 1/4in port, a 5 um element, and a metal bowl, with an automatic drain that clears condensate without manual attention.
Its lower-pressure type regulates from 0.15 to 0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), suited to gentle or sensitive circuits. At 500 g with a 60 cc drain bowl, it fits compact machine builds where a full filter-regulator train would waste rail space and add leak points.

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 GAFC300-08 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.

Where the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C08ALJW Is Used
Fine-pitch assembly
Feed a small pneumatic press or alignment fixture that needs clean, low-pressure air without sudden pressure swings.
Lab air bench
Supply a test rig or calibration station where the 5 um element protects sensitive instruments from fine dust.
Compact maintenance cart
Mount on a portable service cart to provide filtered, regulated air to handheld tools in a workshop.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C08ALJW the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFR300 body for 1/4in or 3/8in ports; the 1/4in port here suits small actuators or single workstations. The metal bowl (C) is a build choice, not a performance upgrade, and the automatic drain (A) suits wet or unattended lines. This model omits the bracket (J), so plan for panel mounting or an existing frame. The 5 um element (W) traps finer particles than the standard 40 um, ideal for precision valves but requiring more frequent service. The fitted gauge reads MPa/psi per the PT thread. If oil is needed downstream, order the matching GAFC300-08 combination instead. With a 1.0 MPa max supply, you have about 0.6 MPa of headroom above the 0.4 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 60 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 500 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 GAFC300-08 combination; do not expect an oil mist from this unit.
Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C08ALJW FAQ
It is a filter & regulator with a 1/4in port, working range 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), max pressure 1.0 MPa (145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature range -5 to 70 C, 60 cc drain bowl, and 500 g weight. It has a 5 um element, automatic drain, metal bowl, and no mounting bracket.
The L code sets the regulated range to 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) instead of the standard 0.15-0.9 MPa. This suits delicate circuits that must never see higher pressure, but if your machine may need more than 0.4 MPa, choose the standard S type instead.
