Airtac GFR Filter Regulator GFR400C15AF1W
The AirTAC GFR Filter Regulator GFR400C15AF1W is a genuine G-series filter regulator: water separation, 40 µm particulate filtration and balanced-type pressure regulation combined in a single body. It has See datasheet ports, a differential-pressure 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.

About the Airtac GFR Filter Regulator GFR400C15AF1W
The GFR400C15AF1W is a genuine AirTAC G-series filter regulator fitted with the W fine-filtration option: one body that removes water and fine particulate from compressed air and steps pressure down for sensitive downstream equipment. This configuration offers a 1/2 inch PT port, an automatic drain that clears condensate from the PC (polycarbonate) bowl unattended, a 5 um filter element in place of the standard 40 um, and an embedded square pressure gauge scaled in MPa. With the automatic drain, the regulating range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi); maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and operating temperature is -5 to 70 C.
This is a genuine AirTAC part from a family spanning 200, 300, 400 and 600 sizes with ports from 1/8 to 1 inch, plus manual, automatic or differential-pressure drains, gauge-scale, thread and mounting options. AirTAC publishes flow capacity as curves rather than a single rating, so send us your line conditions and we will confirm the figures from the datasheet 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.

| GFR400 | G-series filter regulator, 400 body — sets the port range. |
|---|---|
| C1 | Port size See datasheet. This body offers 10 = PT3/8", 15 = PT1/2". |
| (blank) | Drain: Differential-pressure drain — this also sets the regulating band (0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi)). |
| (blank) | Standard type. Blank is standard, L is the low-pressure type. |
| (blank) | Mounting bracket included. |
| (blank) | Pressure gauge fitted (blank). |
| (blank) | Gauge shape: Factory standard. C is round, F is square. |
| (blank) | Gauge scale: Factory standard. 1 is MPa, 2 is psi, 3 is bar. |
| (blank) | Filtering grade 40 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.

Where the Airtac GFR Filter Regulator GFR400C15AF1W Is Used
Pneumatic instrumentation on process skids
Supplying 5 um filtered, regulated air to transmitters, valve positioners and pneumatic controllers on a process skid, where fine particles would upset sensitive pilot circuits.
Paint spray booth supply
Conditioning the 1/2 inch feed to spray guns and atomizing valves in a finishing line, using the 5 um element to reduce blemishes caused by fine debris in shop air.
Precision pilot-air circuits
Feeding pilot regulators and proportional valve panels on packaging machinery, where the 5 um grade protects small internal passages and the automatic drain keeps moisture out unattended.
Is the Airtac GFR Filter Regulator GFR400C15AF1W the Right Unit?
Select the W suffix when the served equipment is sensitive to fine particles - instrumentation, spray equipment, precision valves - while staying with the standard 40 um element for general cylinder supply. Size 400 with a 1/2 inch PT port is the upper-middle step of the G range; step to 600 for more flow or down to 300/200 for compact takeoffs. The A suffix gives an automatic drain, suited to unmanned or hard-to-reach spots; manual and differential-pressure drains are alternate codes. The embedded square gauge reads in MPa; other scales, G or NPT threads and the no-bracket J option are catalogue choices.
Flow is published as curves, not a single rated number, so ask us to confirm sizing against your application before ordering.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (See datasheet here)
- ✓ Element 40 µm or 5 µm
- ✓ Drain sets the regulating band
- ✓ Gauge fitted, shape and scale
- ✓ Thread PT, G (BSPP) or NPT
- ✓ Oil needed downstream? Use GFC instead
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Mount vertically, bowl down, following the airflow arrow.
- check One body does the filtering and the regulating — no separate regulator needed.
- check Keep inlet pressure at or below 1.0 MPa (145 psi).
- check Adjust only within 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
- check Drain condensate before the bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
The PC bowl must not be cleaned with solvents — wipe it with a dry cloth. Without the K option, air cannot flow back through the unit. A filter regulator adds no oil to the line.
Airtac GFR Filter Regulator GFR400C15AF1W FAQ
AirTAC publishes filter regulator capacity as flow curves rather than a single rated figure, so we do not quote a number on the page. Tell us your line pressure, port size and downstream demand and we will confirm the right size from the datasheet on request.
The blank code ships with a 40 um element, which is right for general cylinder and valve supply. The W suffix specifies a 5 um element for downstream equipment sensitive to fine particles, such as instrumentation, spray equipment and precision pilot valves. Everything else on this unit - size 400, 1/2 inch PT port, automatic drain, square MPa gauge - stays the same.
