Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300N15SW
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300N15SW 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.

About the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300N15SW
The GAFR300N15SW is a filter and regulator combined into a single body, eliminating the need for separate components. This 1/2in unit handles a standard pressure range of 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) and uses a 5 um filter element to trap fine particles.
Its nylon bowl collects condensate, and the included semi-auto plus manual drain offers flexible maintenance. Weighing 500 g, this unit is designed for stable panel mounting, not for support from the tubing alone.

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 GAFR300N15SW Is Used
Precision Fixturing
Feed a precise pneumatic clamp or fixture on an assembly line. The 5 um element protects sensitive valves from fine particulates, while the integrated regulator maintains a steady force.
Machine Tool Circuits
Supply a consistent air pressure to a small machine tool's control circuit. The combined filter and regulator saves space on crowded panels and reduces potential leak points.
Single-Actuator Stations
Power a single pneumatic actuator at a dedicated work station. The 1/2in porting and 60 cc drain bowl provide a balanced service interval for moderate use.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR300N15SW the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose this GAFR300 model for 1/2in port lines needing a compact, integrated solution. The nylon bowl is a build choice, and the 5 um element suits precision applications, though it will require more frequent service than a 40 um unit. The included bracket simplifies installation, and the fitted gauge with MPa/psi scale allows direct pressure reading. For lines needing oil downstream, order the matching GAFC300-15 combination instead. Note that the 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.1 MPa above the 0.9 MPa top of the range, so plan your inlet pressure accordingly.
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 GAFR300N15SW FAQ
This filter & regulator has a 1/2in port, a working pressure range of 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), a maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi), and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). Its operating temperature range is -5 to 70 C. The unit weighs 500 g and has a 60 cc drain bowl.
The 'W' code specifies a 5 um filter element instead of the standard 40 um. This traps much finer particles, making it suitable for precision valves or instrument air, but it will clog faster and require more frequent replacement.
