Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C10SJW
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C10SJW 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 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 GAFR400C10SJW
The GAFR400C10SJW is a filter and regulator combined into a single body, so the incoming air is cleaned and then set to a steady outlet pressure without needing separate parts. This 3/8" model works in the 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) range and uses a 5 um element to trap fine particles.
The metal bowl holds 100 cc of condensate, and the unit weighs 880 g. Because the filter and regulator share one body, there are fewer joints to seal and less rail space is consumed compared to using two separate components.

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 GAFR400C10SJW Is Used
Precision valve control
Feed a bank of precision pneumatic valves that need cleaner air. The 5 um element removes finer particles that could affect small orifices and spool operation.
Machine tool circuits
Supply a steady 0.15-0.9 MPa to a machine tool circuit with a 3/8" line. The balanced regulator holds the set pressure as the shop supply fluctuates.
Test bench setup
Use on a test bench where a compact filter-regulator with a metal bowl is preferred. The 100 cc bowl handles a reasonable amount of condensate between manual drains.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C10SJW the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose this GAFR400 body when you need a 3/8" port and a 100 cc metal condensate bowl. The metal bowl is a build choice for the environment; confirm compatibility for aggressive surroundings since the 1.0 MPa max and -5 to 70 C rating are the same for all bowl materials. This model has the semi-auto plus manual drain (both fitted), a 5 um element for finer filtration, and no mounting bracket (J), so plan for a panel mount or an existing bracket. The fitted circular gauge reads in MPa/psi because the thread is PT. If the line needs lubrication downstream, the matching GAFC400-10 combination adds a lubricator. A 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.1 MPa above the 0.9 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 GAFR400C10SJW FAQ
Working pressure is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi). Maximum 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 J code means the mounting bracket is omitted. This is for installations that use a panel mount or an existing bracket. The unit still has the same 880 g weight and 3/8" port, so ensure it is properly supported.
