The AirTAC Airtac GAR Air Regulator GAR40010LJN is a genuine compressed-air pressure regulator. It sets and holds a steady downstream pressure across the 0.05 - 0.4 MPa range, with 3/8" ports and a no-gauge (N) port for a panel gauge. It regulates pressure only — it does not filter the air or remove water.
The AirTAC GAR40010LJN is a regulator-only unit that takes a higher supply pressure and holds a steady, lower downstream pressure you set with the knob. It does not filter or clean the air, and it has no bowl or element, so pair it with a GAF or GAFR if the line needs filtration.
This 3/8in model weighs 570 g and regulates in the lower 0.05-0.4 MPa (7-58 psi) band. The pressed-in self-locking knob keeps the setpoint from drifting when the machine vibrates, so a calibrated low-pressure setting stays put through a shift.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC GAR catalogue (pages 228-229). This is a regulator only — it sets and holds a downstream pressure but does not filter the air or separate water. To clean the air as well, use the matching GAFR400 filter-regulator or add a GAF filter upstream. Never run above the 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.

A GAR regulates pressure but does not filter — there is no bowl, element or drain code. Need to clean the air too? The matching GAFR400-10 is the same regulator with a built-in filter.
All bodies share the same 0.05-0.9 MPa (S) regulated range, 1.0 MPa max and 1.5 MPa proof; the body number sets the port size and the flow the regulator can pass. Bigger ports feed higher air demand. The catalogue plots a flow curve at 0.7 MPa inlet but prints no numeric envelope, so size by port and weight and confirm the curve for a real duty point.

Set a delicate 0.2 MPa clamp force on a light assembly fixture. The L type's fine resolution over the low band prevents over-clamping thin-walled parts.
Feed a sensitive pneumatic instrument that needs a stable 0.15 MPa supply. The balanced design holds the setpoint as the shop compressor cycles.
Maintain a consistent 0.3 MPa to a small spray gun. The self-locking knob resists drift from hose whip, keeping the finish uniform.
Choose the GAR400 body when 3/8in ports and a 570 g mass suit your panel layout; step down to the 300 g GAR300 for lighter duty or up to the 1390 g GAR600 for a large header. The L type here regulates only 0.05-0.4 MPa (7-58 psi), which gives finer control over that low band but cannot reach a 0.5-0.6 MPa setpoint, so it is the wrong part for standard machines. This unit has no gauge (N), so read pressure on the line's own panel gauge, and no bracket (J), so mount it directly to the panel. PT threads carry an MPa/psi gauge scale if you add one later. For clean air, use the matching GAFR400-10 or a GAF filter upstream. The standard S type spans about 2.4x this L type's adjustable band (0.85 MPa vs 0.35 MPa).
Quick checklist
This is a regulator only — it sets and holds pressure but does not filter or lubricate. Add a GAF filter, a GAL lubricator, or step up to the GAFR400-10 filter-regulator as your air-prep needs grow.
It regulates air from 0.05 to 0.4 MPa (7-58 psi) with a max supply pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). Operating temperature is -20 to 70 C. The unit weighs 570 g and has a 3/8in port.
The N code means no pressure gauge is fitted, so you read the setpoint on the line's own panel gauge. The J code omits the mounting bracket, so the unit mounts directly to a panel or an existing bracket you already have.
