Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C15LJNW
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C15LJNW 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.

About the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C15LJNW
The GAFR400C15LJNW is a filter & regulator with both functions sharing one body, so it replaces a separate filter plus a regulator with fewer joints to seal. It has a metal bowl, a 1/2in port, and a lower-pressure range of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) with a 5 um element.
This unit filters water and solids through a diversion structure that spins the air, then regulates outlet pressure with a balanced, self-locking mechanism that resists drift from vibration. It weighs 880 g with a 100 cc drain bowl, and its flow curve is plotted to 7000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet for sizing reference.

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 GAFC400-15 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.

Where the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C15LJNW Is Used
Precision valve control
Feed a bank of precision pneumatic valves that require clean, 5 um filtered air at a stable lower pressure, with the metal bowl protecting against rough shop conditions.
Machine tool coolant lines
Supply a machine tool's air-operated coolant pump where a 1/2in port handles the flow and the lower pressure range prevents over-pressurizing sensitive components.
Test bench air supply
Provide filtered air to a laboratory test bench needing a regulated 0.15-0.4 MPa output, with the 100 cc bowl reducing drain frequency during long test cycles.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C15LJNW the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose this GAFR400 for a 1/2in line needing lower-pressure regulation up to 0.4 MPa. The metal bowl suits demanding environments, while the 5 um element traps finer particles for sensitive equipment. This model ships without a bracket (J) and without a gauge (N); the gauge connection is 1/4in if you add one later. It has both semi-auto and manual drains fitted. If you need lubrication downstream, order the matching GAFC400-15 combination instead. 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 (1/2" 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 GAFC400-15 combination; do not expect an oil mist from this unit.
Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR400C15LJNW FAQ
Pressure range 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 1/2in port.
The N after the port code means no gauge is supplied; the 1/4in gauge connection is ready for one if you add it later. The J code omits the mounting bracket, so you must use an existing bracket or panel mount for this 880 g unit.
