Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR500C20SJNW
The AirTAC Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR500C20SJNW 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 GAFR500C20SJNW
The GAFR500C20SJNW is a filter and regulator combined into a single body, eliminating the need for separate GAF and GAR components. This 3/4in unit delivers air filtered to 5 um and regulated to 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), with a metal condensate bowl.
Its 950 g mass and 3/4in port place it in the GAFR500 size class, a step below the GAFR600's 1880 g and 1in port. The 108 cc drain bowl collects water and solids separated by the internal diversion structure, while the pressed-in self-locking knob resists set-pressure drift from vibration.

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 GAFR500 is 1/4" if you add one. This unit filters and regulates only; it does not add lubrication.

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 GAFR500C20SJNW Is Used
Machine Header Supply
Feed a 3/4in machine header serving multiple pneumatic actuators, with the 5 um element protecting sensitive valves from fine particulate.
Instrument Air Feed
Supply a precision assembly station where 5 um filtration and stable regulated pressure are required for consistent operation of measurement tools.
Multi-Station Line
Regulate air for a multi-station manufacturing line, where the 108 cc metal bowl handles condensate between scheduled maintenance intervals.
Is the Airtac GAFR Adjustable Filter Regulator GAFR500C20SJNW the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFR500 for 3/4in lines needing a 5 um element and a metal bowl. The J code means no mounting bracket is included, so plan for panel mounting or an existing bracket. The N code means no gauge is fitted; the 1/4in gauge connection allows adding one later, and the PT thread uses an MPa/psi scale. The blank drain code means both semi-auto and manual drains are fitted. If oil is needed downstream, order the matching GAFC500-20 combination. 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 GAFR500C20SJNW FAQ
Working pressure range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 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 108 cc and the unit weighs 950 g.
The N code means no gauge is supplied; the 1/4in gauge connection allows adding one later. The J code omits the mounting bracket, which suits installations using existing brackets or panel mounting.
