The AirTAC AirTAC GFR400-10 Filter Regulator (GFR40010AF1WK) is a genuine G-series filter regulator: water separation, 5 µm particulate filtration and balanced-type pressure regulation combined in a single body. It has PT3/8" ports, a automatic drain and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi). It does not lubricate — add a GL lubricator, or order the GFC two-unit set, if downstream equipment needs oil.
The GFR40010AF1WK is an AirTAC G-series filter regulator with a reverse (check) valve fitted: filtration and pressure regulation in one body, with the K code adding a path that lets downstream air pass back through the unit when the upstream supply is removed. This 400-size unit carries 3/8 in PT ports, an automatic drain on the PC bowl, a 5 um (W) filtering element, and an embedded square gauge scaled in MPa. The regulated outlet is set anywhere in the 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) range against a 1.0 MPa (145 psi) maximum inlet.
It is a genuine AirTAC catalogue part. The G series runs from size 200 to 600 with PT, G (BSPP) and NPT threads, differential-pressure, automatic or manual drains, and 40 um or 5 um elements; the operating temperature range is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing, and the 400-size bowl is polycarbonate (PC). Because published flow data comes as curves rather than a single rating, we confirm the datasheet figures for your line on request.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC G-series air-preparation data. The regulating band is set by the drain type: automatic and differential-pressure drains regulate 0.15 - 0.9 MPa, a manual drain regulates 0.05 - 0.9 MPa. Standard type, regulating 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi). 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.

| F | Gauge shape: Square. C is round, F is square. |
| 1 | Gauge scale: MPa. 1 is MPa, 2 is psi, 3 is bar. |
| W | Filtering grade 5 µm. Only 40 µm (blank) and 5 µm (W) exist. |

Field order is size, port, drain, type, bracket, gauge, shape, scale, grade, thread, reflux — a blank position takes the default. Example: GFR300-08 is a 300 body, PT1/4", differential drain, standard type, bracket included, gauge fitted, 40 µm, PT thread, no reflux valve.
A larger body carries a larger port and holds set pressure better as flow rises. AirTAC publishes flow only as curves, so size the body from your peak demand with headroom. The GFR600 uses an aluminium-alloy bowl; the 200, 300 and 400 bodies use PC.

Feeding cylinders and actuators across an assembly cell from a 3/8 in branch, with the check valve letting downstream air pass back through the unit when the supply is shut off.
Supplying regulated air to pneumatic test rigs in a laboratory, where the 5 um element protects instrumentation from particulates and the automatic drain handles condensate.
Regulating air to fill and capper valve actuators on a bottling line, with automatic draining and 5 um filtration helping keep moisture and particles out of the valve manifold.
Pick the K version when your circuit benefits from reverse flow past the regulator - for example where downstream air should vent back through the unit when the supply valve closes; otherwise the plain GFR40010AF1W without K is the equivalent unit. Drain choice: automatic (this code) versus manual or the default differential-pressure type. Filter grade: 5 um (W) versus the 40 um standard. Gauge: embedded square, MPa scale (F1), with psi (2) and bar (3) scales and an external round gauge as alternatives. Thread: PT is standard; G and NPT are orderable options. Flow is published as curves, not a single rated figure, so share your flow and pressure duty and we will confirm sizing against the datasheet before you order.
Quick checklist
The PC bowl must not be cleaned with solvents — wipe it with a dry cloth. The reflux valve permits reverse flow through the unit. A filter regulator adds no oil to the line.
Flow for this filter regulator is published by AirTAC as performance curves, not a single rated number, so there is no one flow figure to quote. Give us your required flow, port size and working pressure, and we will confirm the datasheet curve and correct sizing on request before you order.
K means a reverse (check) valve is fitted, allowing downstream air to pass back through the unit when the upstream supply is removed. Without the K the unit is the same 3/8 in PT, automatic-drain, 5 um filter regulator with a square MPa gauge, but with no reverse-flow path.
