The AirTAC GFR Filter Regulator GFR400C15AJC1WK 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.
The GFR400C15AJC1WK is an AirTAC G-series filter regulator combining filtration and pressure regulation in one body with a drain bowl and no lubricator. The W code specifies the fine 5 um element instead of the 40 um standard, and the trailing K adds a reverse (check) valve so downstream pressure is not lost back through the unit when upstream supply is shut off. This 400-size unit takes a 1/2 in PT thread, includes an external round gauge reading in MPa (C1), and is supplied without a bracket (J). Drainage is automatic, the regulator adjusts from 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) with this drain, max inlet is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), and the temperature range is -5 to 70 C. The bowl on the 400 size is polycarbonate (PC).
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The G-series filter regulator family spans 200, 300, 400 and 600 sizes in ports from 1/8 to 1 in, with differential-pressure, automatic or manual drains, 40 um or 5 um (W) elements, embedded square or external round gauges in MPa, psi or bar scales, optional reverse/check valve, and G (BSPP) or NPT threads alongside the PT standard. Flow figures are published as curves rather than a single rating, so we confirm datasheet values 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.

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.

Supplying grippers and clamps on an automated sample-handling system, the 5 um element protects the fine pneumatic components and the check valve holds actuator pressure while the upstream supply is switched off between runs.
Mounted on the instrument-air feed to a shutdown or isolation panel, the reverse valve prevents the regulated panel pressure decaying back into a depressurised header, and the MPa gauge gives operators a direct setpoint check.
Feeding air knives and nozzles that dry containers on a filling line, the fine 5 um element guards the small nozzle orifices against particle blockage while the regulator pins the blowing pressure the line was set up with.
Specify the WK combination when the downstream circuit is both particle-sensitive and must hold pressure through a supply interruption: the W code gives the 5 um element and the K code the reverse valve. Match the 400 size and 1/2 in PT port to lines already running 1/2 in piping, and compare candidate sizes on the flow curves for your duty point rather than on port size. Automatic drain keeps bowl drainage hands-off here. The round gauge reads MPa, with psi and bar scales as options; G (BSPP) and NPT threads are catalogue alternatives to PT, and dropping the J code adds a mounting bracket. Flow 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 — 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.
Start from your duty pressure and required flow, then have us confirm the figures: AirTAC publishes flow for the GFR400 series as curves, not as a single rated number, so we will not quote an invented l/min or SCFM value. Send us the application details and we will confirm the datasheet values on request before you order.
The K code fits the reverse (check) valve inside the unit, so you get filtration, regulation and backflow prevention in one 400-size body on the 1/2 in PT connection, alongside the automatic drain, 5 um element and MPa round gauge. If your circuit does not need pressure held through supply interruptions, the non-K versions do the same filtering and regulating job without the check function.
