The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR40015LJWK 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 - 0.4 MPa (20 - 58 psi). It has no lubricator, so it adds no oil to the airflow.
The GAFR40015LJWK is a filter and regulator combined into a single body, eliminating the need for separate components. It handles a 1/2in port with a lower pressure range of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) and uses a 5 um element for fine filtration.
This unit features a 100 cc condensate bowl and weighs 880 g, placing it in the mid-size class for machine headers. The circular gauge with MPa/psi scale is fitted, and the reverse-flow valve is included as an ordering option.

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 GAFC400-15 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 that require stable, lower pressure air at 0.15-0.4 MPa for delicate actuation.
Supply filtered air to a medium-sized machine tool circuit where a 1/2in port and 100 cc bowl handle moderate condensate loads.
Use in a test bench where a 5 um element protects sensitive instruments and the lower pressure range suits calibration tasks.
Choose the GAFR400 body for 1/2in ports where a 100 cc drain bowl and 7000 L/min flow envelope at 0.7 MPa inlet suit medium automation lines. This model has a PC bowl, a 5 um element for finer particle removal, and both semi-auto and manual drains for flexible servicing. The L-type regulator tops out at 0.4 MPa, so confirm your system never needs more than that; the J code means no bracket is included, and the K code adds the reverse-flow valve. If you need lubrication downstream, order the matching GAFC400-15 combination instead. With a 1.0 MPa max supply, you have about 0.6 MPa of headroom above the 0.4 MPa regulated top.
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 GAFC400-15 combination; do not expect an oil mist from this unit.
It has a 1/2in port, a pressure range of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), a max pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi), a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and a temperature range of -5 to 70 C. The drain bowl holds 100 cc and the unit weighs 880 g.
The K code indicates a reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted to the GAFR40015LJWK. It is an ordering difference from models without this valve; the catalogue does not detail its operation.
