Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C15ASN
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C15ASN 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 1/2" ports, a 40 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 GAFR300C15ASN
The GAFR300C15ASN is a filter and regulator combined in a single body, so it cleans incoming air and stabilizes outlet pressure without needing separate units. This model uses a 1/2in port, a 40 um element, and a metal bowl, with an automatic drain that clears condensate without manual attention.
It operates from 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) and weighs 500 g, placing it in the mid-size class for shop air lines. The diversion structure spins the air to separate liquid water and solid particles into the 60 cc drain bowl, while the balanced regulator holds the set pressure as supply varies.

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 GAFR300 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 GAFC300-15 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 GAFR300C15ASN Is Used
Machine tool circuits
Feed a single-axis positioning table or a small clamping fixture where steady pressure prevents chatter and the automatic drain reduces maintenance stops.
Assembly station air
Supply a workbench manifold for pneumatic screwdrivers or push-in fittings, keeping the line free of water droplets that could stain finished parts.
Test bench supply
Provide clean, regulated air to a prototype jig or a leak-test fixture where the 40 um element traps particles before they reach sensitive orifices.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C15ASN the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFR300 body when your line needs a 1/2in port and moderate flow; the flow curve is plotted to 3500 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet, which is about half the envelope of the GAFR400's 7000 L/min. The metal bowl (C) suits rough handling, and the automatic drain (A) removes condensate automatically for wet or unattended lines. The bracket is included, but there is no gauge (N), so the 1/8in gauge connection is ready if you add one later. The 40 um element handles general shop air, and the thread is PT with an MPa/psi scale. If oil is needed downstream, order the matching GAFC300-15 combination instead. 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 (1/2" 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 GAFC300-15 combination; do not expect an oil mist from this unit.
Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C15ASN FAQ
It is a filter & regulator with a 1/2in port, working range 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 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. The element is 40 um and the drain is automatic.
The N code means no gauge is supplied, which suits panels that already have a pressure readout or where remote monitoring is used. The gauge connection on the GAFR300 body is 1/8in, so a standard 1/8in gauge can be fitted later if needed.
