Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C10ALJN
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C10ALJN 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 GAFR400C10ALJN
The GAFR400C10ALJN is a filter and regulator combined into a single body, cleaning incoming air and holding a steady outlet pressure without any lubricator. 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 spun-out water.
Its metal bowl holds 100 cc of condensate, and the automatic drain clears it without manual attention. Weighing 880 g, this size class suits fixed installations where the body is supported by a frame rather than the tubing.

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.

Where the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C10ALJN Is Used
Precision pressure setting
Set a stable 0.3 MPa supply for a sensitive pneumatic gripper on an assembly cell, with the automatic drain protecting the metal bowl from overflow.
Wet utility line
Feed a washdown-area machine where condensate is frequent; the auto drain clears the 100 cc bowl and the metal body withstands the environment.
Panel-mounted station
Mount this 880 g unit directly to a control panel using the existing bracket holes, saving rail space versus separate filter and regulator parts.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C10ALJN the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose this GAFR400 when 3/8in ports and a 100 cc metal bowl fit your line, and the lower 0.15-0.4 MPa range covers your actuators. The automatic drain handles wet or unattended lines, while the omitted bracket (J) suits panel mounting, and the absent gauge (N) leaves a 1/4in connection for your own instrument. If downstream lubrication is ever needed, order the matching GAFC400-10 combination instead. Remember that 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.6 MPa above the 0.4 MPa top of the 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 GAFR400C10ALJN FAQ
Working pressure is 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 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 100 cc and the unit weighs 880 g with a 3/8in port.
The J code omits the mounting bracket for panel-mount installations, and the N code means no gauge is supplied, leaving a 1/4in gauge connection for your own instrument. The automatic drain (A) and metal bowl (C) are still included.
