Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C08ASWK
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C08ASWK 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 GAFR300C08ASWK
The GAFR300C08ASWK is a filter and pressure regulator combined into one body, saving rail space and reducing potential leak points compared to separate units. It handles 1/4in ports, regulates from 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), and uses a 5 um element for fine filtration.
A diversion structure spins incoming air to separate liquid water and solid particles into the 60 cc metal bowl, while the balanced regulator holds the set outlet pressure steady. The automatic drain clears condensate without manual attention, and the pressed-in self-locking knob resists drift from vibration.

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 GAFR300C08ASWK Is Used
Precision valve control
Feed a bank of precision pneumatic valves on a small assembly station, where the 5 um element protects fine internal passages from particle wear.
Machine tool air supply
Supply clean, regulated air to a single CNC machine tool's clamping circuit, with the automatic drain handling condensate from a wet compressor line.
Instrument air for test rigs
Provide stable pressure to a laboratory test fixture that cycles actuators, where the balanced regulator holds setpoint as shop supply fluctuates.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C08ASWK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
This GAFR300 body suits 1/4in lines and is rated for flows plotted to 3500 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet. The metal bowl (C) is a build choice for environments where PC or nylon may not be preferred; confirm compatibility for aggressive surroundings. The automatic drain (A) is for unattended or wet lines, while the 5 um element (W) traps finer particles for precision applications. The included bracket simplifies mounting, and the fitted gauge reads in MPa/psi. The reverse-flow (reflux) valve (K) is an ordering difference. If oil is needed downstream, order the matching GAFC300-08 combination instead. Note that 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.1 MPa above the 0.9 MPa top of the 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 GAFR300C08ASWK FAQ
Pressure range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), max pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and temperature range is -5 to 70 C. The drain bowl holds 60 cc and the unit weighs 500 g. It has a 1/4in port, 5 um element, and automatic drain.
The K code indicates the reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted to this model. It is an ordering difference from the standard version; the catalogue defers its function to a separate page not included in our data, so no operational details are provided here.
