The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300C15SW 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 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 GAFR300C15SW is a filter and regulator combined into a single body, so it cleans incoming air and locks a steady outlet pressure without needing a separate filter plus regulator pair. This 1/2in version weighs 500 g and uses a metal bowl, with a 5 um element for finer particle removal.
Its working range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), and the circular gauge with MPa/psi scale is fitted. The metal bowl holds 60 cc of condensate, and the semi-auto plus manual drain gives operators both automatic purging and a manual override.

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 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.

Feed a bank of precision pneumatic valves on a 1/2in manifold, where the 5 um element protects fine internal passages from particle wear.
Supply a mid-size machining fixture with regulated air, using the 60 cc metal bowl to collect condensate over a full shift.
Provide a stable 0.15-0.9 MPa source for a laboratory test bench, where the included bracket mounts the 500 g unit securely to a frame.
Choose the GAFR300 body for 1/2in ports where a 60 cc drain bowl and 500 g mass suit a mid-size machine. The metal bowl is a build choice for the environment, while the 5 um element traps finer particles than the standard 40 um. Both semi-auto and manual drains are fitted, and the bracket is included; the PT thread sets the gauge scale to MPa/psi. If oil is needed downstream, order the matching GAFC300-15 combination instead. A 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.1 MPa above the 0.9 MPa top of the range.
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 GAFC300-15 combination; do not expect an oil mist from this unit.
Working pressure 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), temperature range is -5 to 70 C. The drain bowl holds 60 cc and the unit weighs 500 g.
The C code specifies a metal bowl instead of the standard PC plastic. It is a build and environment choice, but the pressure and temperature ratings are identical to the PC version. Confirm compatibility with aggressive surroundings before ordering.
