The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR40010LJN 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 3/8" ports, a 40 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.
The GAFR40010LJN is a filter and pressure regulator combined into a single body, so incoming air is cleaned and then set to a steady outlet pressure without needing separate components. This 3/8in unit operates in the lower 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) band and uses a 40 um element to trap solids and liquid water.
Its 100 cc condensate bowl collects what the diversion structure spins out, and the drain is both semi-auto and manual. At 880 g, this size class needs proper panel mounting rather than support from the tubing, and the balanced regulator helps hold 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 GAFR400 is 1/4" 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 GAFC400-10 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 delicate clamping fixture that must not see more than 0.4 MPa, using the L type to cap the outlet while the filter keeps swarf out of the pilot valves.
Supply a test bench with filtered air at a stable low pressure, where the 100 cc bowl handles moderate condensate between manual drains.
Mount this 880 g unit on a control panel for a small machine, relying on the semi-auto drain for periodic service and the 3/8in port for compact piping.
Choose the GAFR400 body when you need a 3/8in port and a 100 cc drain bowl, which holds about 1.7x the condensate of the GAFR300's 60 cc bowl. The PC bowl suits general dry indoor lines, while the L type caps the regulated range at 0.4 MPa, so confirm your machine never needs more than that. This model ships without the mounting bracket (J) and without a gauge, but the 1/4in gauge connection is ready if you add one later. The 40 um element is the standard grade, and the PT thread gives an MPa/psi gauge scale. If oil is needed downstream, order the matching GAFC400-10 combination instead. With a 1.0 MPa max supply, you have about 0.6 MPa of headroom above the 0.4 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 GAFC400-10 combination; do not expect an oil mist from this unit.
Working pressure is 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), max pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), and proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi). Temperature range is -5 to 70 C. The drain bowl holds 100 cc and the unit weighs 880 g.
The N code after the port means no gauge is supplied, so you cannot read the set pressure without adding one to the 1/4in connection. The J code omits the mounting bracket, which suits panel-mount installations or existing brackets.
