The AirTAC GFR200-06 AirTAC Filter Regulator NPT1/8, 5 um, Manual Drain 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 PT1/8" ports, a manual drain and regulates 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi). It does not lubricate — add a GL lubricator, or order the GFC two-unit set, if downstream equipment needs oil.
The AirTAC GFR200-06 is a filter regulator: it removes water and particulate from compressed air and holds a steady downstream pressure in one compact body. This size 200 unit is threaded NPT1/8 (1/8 in), carries a 5 um filter element (the finer of the two catalogue grades), a manual drain on the polycarbonate bowl, an embedded square gauge reading in psi, and a built-in check valve that permits reverse flow past the regulator. A mounting bracket is included. Maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), the regulating range with manual drain is 0.05-0.9 MPa (7-130 psi), and the working temperature range is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR family spans sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with ports from 1/8 in to 1 in, a choice of differential-pressure, automatic or manual drains, 40 um or 5 um elements, gauge scales in MPa, psi or bar, and PT, G or NPT threads. AirTAC publishes flow as curves rather than a single rated figure, so ask us to confirm flow and datasheet figures for your application before ordering.

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 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 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.

|---|---|
| 06 | Port size PT1/8". This body offers 06 = PT1/8", 08 = PT1/4". |
| M | Drain: Manual drain — this also sets the regulating band (0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi)). |
| (blank) | Standard type. Blank is standard, L is the low-pressure type. |
| (blank) | Mounting bracket included. |
| (blank) | Pressure gauge fitted (blank). |
| F | Gauge shape: Square. C is round, F is square. |
| 2 | Gauge scale: psi. 1 is MPa, 2 is psi, 3 is bar. |
| W | Filtering grade 5 µm. Only 40 µm (blank) and 5 µm (W) exist. |
| T | NPT thread. PT is the default; G is BSPP and T is NPT. |

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.

Filtered, regulated air at a set pressure feeds the tool changer, clamping fixtures and solenoid valves on a small CNC cell, with the 5 um element protecting sensitive pilot valves from particulate and condensed water.
On a carton-sealing or case-packing conveyor, the GFR200-06 supplies steady low-pressure air to the tape-head and flap-tuck cylinders, while the manual drain lets operators clear bowl condensate at shift start.
Benchtop analytical and test instruments running on shop air get clean, particulate-free, pressure-stable air; the 5 um element and the psi-scale gauge suit instruments calibrated in imperial units.
Step up through sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 as your port and flow demand grows; this unit is the 1/8 in entry point. Drain choice matters: the differential-pressure drain (default) tracks inlet flow, an automatic drain (code A) empties the bowl on its own, and this manual drain (code M) version lets you dump condensate by hand - simplest, but it needs a routine. The 5 um element (code W) suits instruments and precision pilot valves; the 40 um standard element suits general plant air. Gauges can be ordered with MPa, psi or bar scales, and threads come as PT (the standard), G or NPT. Flow is published as curves, not a single rating, so send us your flow and pressure requirements 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.
AirTAC publishes flow for the GFR series as curves rather than a single rated number, so we do not quote a figure here. Send us your required flow and working pressure and we will confirm the sizing from the datasheet before you order.
The M code means condensate is emptied by hand rather than automatically. It is the simplest option at points an operator visits regularly; if the unit sits unattended, ask about the automatic (A) or differential-pressure drain versions instead. With a manual drain, the regulating range is 0.05-0.9 MPa (7-130 psi).
