Airtac GFR Filter Regulator GFR400C15ANW
The AirTAC GFR Filter Regulator GFR400C15ANW 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 GFR400C15ANW
The GFR series is AirTAC's filter regulator: filtration and pressure regulation in a single body on one 1/2 in PT connection. The W in this 400-size code selects the fine 5 um filtration element instead of the standard 40 um, for air that feeds sensitive pneumatic equipment. It has an automatic drain (A) that empties the polycarbonate bowl unattended, and no gauge fitted (N). Maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and the outlet is adjustable 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) on this automatic-drain version.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. G-series filter regulators come in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with ports from 1/8 to 1 in, and options for manual or differential-pressure draining, 40 um or 5 um elements, an embedded square gauge or external round gauge, a reverse (check) valve and G (BSPP) or NPT threads. Working temperature is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing) and a mounting bracket is included. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so we confirm the datasheet figures 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.

Where the Airtac GFR Filter Regulator GFR400C15ANW Is Used
Laboratory pneumatic instrumentation
Conditions the supply to bench-top pneumatic instruments and test rigs in a lab, where the 5 um element keeps fine particulate out of small-bore sensing circuits.
Automotive refinish spray booth feed
Filters and regulates the air line feeding spray guns in a paint booth, with the 5 um element and automatic drain helping keep water and grit away from the gun.
Pneumatic measuring fixtures
Supplies air-gauging and comparison-measuring fixtures on a production line, where the fine element protects the restriction orifices that the measurement depends on.
Is the Airtac GFR Filter Regulator GFR400C15ANW the Right Unit?
Size 400 with a 1/2 in PT port is the mid step of the G-series range; step to 300 or 600 to match the line's air demand. This W variant carries the 5 um element - choose it when downstream equipment needs finer filtration than the standard 40 um, and remember the automatic drain (A) matters more as finer elements collect water; manual (M) and differential-pressure drains are also catalogued. No gauge is fitted (N); an embedded square gauge or external round gauge with MPa, psi or bar scale can be selected. Thread is PT as standard, with G (BSPP) and NPT as catalogue options, and the mounting bracket is included.
AirTAC publishes flow as curves rather than a single rated number, so ask us to confirm sizing against the datasheet 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 GFR400C15ANW FAQ
AirTAC publishes flow for the G series as characteristic curves rather than a single rated figure, so no one rated-flow number can be quoted here. Give us your line pressure and air demand and we will confirm the sizing from the datasheet on request before you order.
The standard 40 um element suits general plant air for cylinders, valves and air tools. The 5 um element of this model is for equipment that needs finer filtration, such as spray equipment, instrumentation and measuring devices. Finer elements load up faster, so pair the W code with a drain strategy you will actually maintain - this model already has the automatic drain (A), and manual (M) and differential-pressure versions exist.
