Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR50020SJWK
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR50020SJWK 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 3/4" 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 GAFR50020SJWK
The GAFR50020SJWK is a filter and regulator combined into a single body, saving rail space and reducing potential leak points compared to separate units. It handles 3/4in ports and delivers a regulated output from 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), with a 5 um element for finer filtration.
This 950 g unit features a PC bowl and a semi-auto plus manual drain, allowing for flexible condensate removal. The fitted circular gauge shows the outlet pressure on an MPa/psi scale, and the reverse-flow (reflux) valve is included as an ordering difference.

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 GAFC500-20 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 GAFR50020SJWK Is Used
Machine tool circuits
Feed a 3/4in line to a machining center's pneumatic controls, where the 5 um element protects precision valves from fine particulates.
Multi-station assembly
Supply a branch header for several workstations, using the 108 cc bowl to reduce drain frequency across a shift.
Test rigs and benches
Provide a stable, filtered air supply to a laboratory test bench, with the gauge allowing operators to verify set pressure at a glance.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR50020SJWK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose this GAFR500 body for 3/4in lines where the flow curve is plotted to 8000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet. The PC bowl suits standard shop air; the 5 um element traps finer particles for sensitive equipment, though it will need more frequent service than a 40 um element. The semi-auto and manual drains are both fitted, and the bracket is omitted (J) for panel mounting. The gauge is included, and the PT thread sets the scale to MPa/psi. If oil is needed downstream, order the matching GAFC500-20 combination instead. The 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 (3/4" 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 108 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 950 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 GAFC500-20 combination; do not expect an oil mist from this unit.
Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR50020SJWK FAQ
The pressure range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), with a max pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). The temperature range is -5 to 70 C. The drain bowl holds 108 cc and the unit weighs 950 g.
The K indicates a reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted. It is an ordering difference; its specific function is detailed in the catalogue. This model also has no mounting bracket (J) and a 5 um element (W).
