The AirTAC AirTAC GF400-10 Filter (GF40010M) is a genuine G-series air filter. It separates condensed water and filters particulate from the compressed-air line through a 40 µm element, with PT3/8" ports and a manual drain. A filter does not set downstream pressure — pair it with a GR regulator, or use a GFR filter regulator, when pressure control is needed.
The AirTAC GF40010M is a GF-series air filter in the 400 size with a 3/8" PT port. It removes water and particulate from compressed air only - there is no pressure regulation and no lubrication in this unit. This configuration has a manual drain bowl, so condensate is emptied by opening the drain by hand, and the standard 40 um filter element for general-purpose air preparation. The polycarbonate bowl suits the 400 frame, and a mounting bracket is included.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GF series spans sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with ports from 1/8" to 1", and options including G (BSPP) or NPT threads, automatic or manual drains, and a 5 um element (W). Flow for this series is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, so contact us and we will confirm the datasheet figures for your application on request.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC G-series air-preparation data. The inlet-pressure band is set by the drain type: automatic and differential-pressure drains run 0.15 - 1.0 MPa, a manual drain runs 0 - 0.9 MPa. Air must not freeze in the unit. Flow curves, weight and outline dimensions are not published in our data set — ask us and we will confirm from the factory datasheet.
| GF400 | G-series air filter, 400 body — sets the port range. |
|---|---|
| 10 | Port size PT3/8". This body offers 10 = PT3/8", 15 = PT1/2". |
| M | Drain: Manual drain. Options are differential (blank), automatic (A) or manual (M). |
| (blank) | Mounting bracket included. A bracket ships by default; J orders it without. |
| (blank) | Filtering grade 40 µm. Only 40 µm (blank) and 5 µm (W) exist. |
| (blank) | PT thread. PT is the default; G is BSPP and T is NPT. |
Field order is size, port, drain, bracket, grade, thread — a blank position takes the default. Example: GF300-10AJW is a 300 body, PT3/8", automatic drain, no bracket, 5 µm element, PT thread.
A larger body carries a larger port and passes more air at the same pressure drop. AirTAC publishes flow only as curves, so size the body from your peak demand with headroom rather than from a single rated figure. The GF600 uses an aluminium-alloy bowl; the 200, 300 and 400 bodies use PC.

Installed ahead of the solenoid valves and cylinders on a punch press, this filter removes water and pipe scale from the shop-air drop so the valve spools stay clean between services.
Mounted on the air preparation drop feeding washdown-area conveyor stopper and pusher cylinders, it catches condensate carried over from the compressor before it reaches the actuators.
Fitted on the branch feeding a maintenance-shop air ring with blow guns and impact tools, it keeps rust and moisture out of the tools that machinists connect throughout the shift.
Choose the 400 size with a 3/8" PT port when your line flow and existing pipework sit at the 1/2"-class end of the G-series range; smaller sizes 200/300 suit lighter duties, 600 for larger ports. The manual drain here is best where the unit is reachable and someone can bleed the bowl on a routine; for unattended duty pick the automatic-drain variant. The standard element is 40 um; specify W (5 um) if downstream valves or tools need finer filtration. Thread: PT is the standard; G (BSPP) and NPT are catalogue options to order. Bracket is included on this code.
Flow for the GF series is published as curves, not a single rating, so ask us to confirm sizing against your application before ordering.
Quick checklist
The PC bowl must not be cleaned with solvents or exposed to synthetic oils that attack polycarbonate — wipe it with a dry cloth. A filter removes water and particulate only; it does not regulate pressure or add lubrication.
AirTAC publishes GF-series flow as curves, not as a single rated figure, so there is no one flow number to quote. Tell us your application and we will confirm the datasheet flow figures on request so you can size the 400 frame with confidence.
The M in GF40010M means the bowl drain is operated by hand: someone opens it to release collected condensate. It suits accessible mounting points on a regular walk-round. If the unit will be left unattended, the automatic-drain variant is the better decode. Note the manual-drain inlet pressure range for GF is 0-0.9 MPa.
