Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C08LJW
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C08LJW 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 GAFR300C08LJW
The GAFR300C08LJW is a filter & regulator with both functions in one body, so it replaces a separate GAF filter and GAR regulator. It has a 1/4in port, a 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) lower-pressure range, and a 5 um element that traps finer particles for sensitive equipment.
This unit spins incoming air to separate liquid water and solid grain into its 60 cc metal drain bowl. The balanced, self-locking regulator holds the outlet steady as supply pressure varies, and the pressed-in knob resists drift from vibration.

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 GAFR300C08LJW Is Used
Precision valve control
Feed a precision pneumatic valve or small instrument loop that needs clean, regulated air at a stable lower pressure.
Bench test rigs
Use on a laboratory or workshop bench where a compact 1/4in unit with a 5 um element protects sensitive test fixtures.
Single actuator line
Protect a single cylinder or actuator on a light assembly machine, with the manual drain checked during routine maintenance.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C08LJW the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFR300 body for 1/4in to 1/2in ports; it has a 60 cc drain bowl and a flow curve plotted to 3500 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet. The metal bowl (C) suits demanding environments, while the 5 um element (W) filters finer particles than the standard 40 um grade. This model has the lower-pressure type (L) topping at 0.4 MPa, a semi-auto plus manual drain, no bracket (J), and a fitted gauge with MPa/psi scale. If your line needs oil downstream, order the matching GAFC300-08 combination instead. 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.6 MPa above the 0.4 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 GAFR300C08LJW FAQ
It is a filter & regulator with a 1/4in port, 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) working range, 1.0 MPa (145 psi) max pressure, 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and -5 to 70 C temperature range. The drain bowl holds 60 cc and the unit weighs 500 g.
The L type is designed for applications that only need up to 0.4 MPa outlet pressure. If your machine may ever require more than that, choose the standard S type instead, which goes up to 0.9 MPa.
