The AirTAC AirTAC GFR600-20 Filter Regulator (GFR60020JC1W) 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 PT3/4" 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.
GFR60020JC1W is a genuine AirTAC G-series filter regulator - filtration and regulation combined in one body. The W suffix selects the finer 5 um filter element instead of the 40 um standard, for applications where finer particulate capture matters. This code also gives the 600 size with a PT3/4 port and standard PT thread, a differential-pressure drain, an external round pressure gauge on an MPa scale, and no mounting bracket. Maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi); regulating range with the differential-pressure drain is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi).
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR family covers sizes 200 to 600 with ports from 1/8 in. to 1 in., and element, drain, thread and gauge options across the range. The 600 body uses an aluminium alloy bowl and runs from -5 to 70 C (non-freezing), suiting it to main-line duty where a finer element is wanted. Flow is published as curves rather than a single figure, so we will confirm sizing and the datasheet against your application 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.

Feeds purge and actuation air to instrumented skid components, where the 5 um element helps keep fine particulate away from sensitive pneumatic control devices.
Conditions the air driving chuck jaws, tailstock quill and part-catcher cylinders on a machining center, holding a stable regulated pressure for repeatable workholding.
Supplies clean, regulated air to dome valve and diverter actuators on a silo filling line, with the 5 um element reducing debris carryover into valve pilot circuits.
The key choice on this code is filtration: W specifies the 5 um element, one step finer than the 40 um standard - choose it when downstream valves, cylinders or instruments need cleaner air. If 40 um is enough, order the code without W. The 600 frame is the largest GFR size, suited to 3/4 in. PT main lines where a smaller port would restrict demand; G and NPT threads are alternatives. Drain is differential-pressure by default, with manual and automatic variants available (manual widens the regulating range to 0.05-0.9 MPa). The round external gauge carries an MPa scale; square gauges and psi/bar scales are the other options. J means no bracket. Flow appears as curves, not a single rating - ask us to confirm sizing from the datasheet before ordering.
Quick checklist
The aluminium-alloy bowl on the GFR600 suits harsher environments than a PC bowl. Without the K option, air cannot flow back through the unit. A filter regulator adds no oil to the line.
There is no single rated flow figure we can quote: AirTAC publishes GFR performance as curves across inlet pressures. Send us your line pressure and required air demand and we will confirm suitability and provide the datasheet on request.
Choose W (5 um) when downstream equipment is sensitive to finer particulate - instrument air, precision valve pilots or close-tolerance pneumatic components. Stick with the 40 um standard for general cylinder and actuator duty; the choice is made purely through the W suffix in the code.
