Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR40010LK
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR40010LK 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.

About the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR40010LK
The GAFR40010LK is a filter and regulator combined into a single body, cleaning incoming air and holding a steady outlet pressure without a separate filter-regulator train. This lower-pressure version regulates from 0.15 to 0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) and comes with a 40 um element, a 100 cc condensate bowl, and a fitted circular gauge reading MPa/psi.
Its diversion structure spins the air to drop liquid water and solid particles into the bowl, while the balanced, self-locking regulator keeps the set pressure stable as supply varies. At 880 g with a 3/8in port, this unit suits compact machine builds where a lighter, single-body solution reduces rail space and potential leak points.

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.

Where the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR40010LK Is Used
Precision pressure setting
Use the lower-pressure range to set a precise 0.3 MPa for a delicate clamping fixture, where the balanced regulator holds the outlet steady despite supply fluctuations.
Compact machine build
Mount the 880 g unit on a small assembly station with the included bracket, saving rail space compared to separate filter and regulator bodies.
Lab air supply
Feed a test bench or instrument air line at a controlled low pressure, with the 40 um element protecting sensitive equipment from solid particles.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR40010LK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFR400 body when you need a 3/8in port and a 100 cc drain bowl, stepping up from the GAFR300's 60 cc bowl for longer intervals between draining. The L type caps the regulated range at 0.4 MPa, so confirm your application never needs more than that; the included bracket mounts the 880 g unit securely, and the fitted gauge shows the set pressure directly. The semi-auto and manual drains are both fitted, and the reverse-flow valve is attached as an ordering option. 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 regulated range.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (3/8" 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 100 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 880 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 GAFC400-10 combination; do not expect an oil mist from this unit.
Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR40010LK FAQ
The GAFR40010LK is a filter & regulator with a 3/8in port, a lower-pressure range of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), a maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi), and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). It operates from -5 to 70 C, has a 100 cc drain bowl, and weighs 880 g.
The K indicates the unit has a reverse-flow (reflux) valve fitted. This is an ordering difference from models without K; the catalogue does not detail its function in our data, so treat it as a specified option.
