The AirTAC GFR200-06 AirTAC Filter Regulator NPT1/8 5um 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 sets downstream pressure in a single compact body. This 200-size unit is fitted with a 1/8 in NPT port, a 5 um filter element for finer particle removal than the standard 40 um grade, a manual drain for the PC bowl, an embedded square pressure gauge scaled in MPa, and a reverse/check valve that holds the downstream setting when the inlet supply is interrupted. Mounting bracket included. Max inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi); the regulator adjusts from 0.05 to 0.9 MPa (7-130 psi). Operating temperature is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing).
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR series is available in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with a choice of port, thread (PT standard, G and NPT as options), drain type, filter grade, gauge style and scale. Flow data is published as curves rather than a single rating, so we confirm the datasheet figures for 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 0.05 - 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.

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 and regulates the air to a compact benchtop press or crimping tool, where the 5 um element protects the valve and cylinder from fine particles and the check valve holds the set pressure if the shop supply dips.
Supplies clean, regulated air to benchtop test rigs and pneumatic sample handlers, where the fine 5 um grade and manual drain suit a supervised station that is bled down at the end of each shift.
Regulates supply to clamping fixtures on a machining cell, with the reverse/check valve maintaining clamp pressure against a momentary supply loss and the MPa gauge giving the operator a direct setting reference.
Start with the port step: the 200 size with a 1/8 in port suits the smallest branch lines, while 300/400/600 sizes carry larger ports for higher air demand - match the size to the flow your line needs. Choose the drain to suit access: manual drain (this unit) needs an operator to bleed the bowl, automatic drain bleeds itself, and the default differential-pressure drain works off the pressure drop across the element. Pick the 5 um element (code W, as here) when finer filtration matters, or the standard 40 um for general supply. Select gauge style (embedded square standard, external round optional) and scale (MPa, psi or bar), and the thread: PT is the standard, with G and NPT as catalogue options. Bracket inclusion can be specified.
Because flow is published as curves rather than one rated figure, 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. The reflux valve permits reverse flow through the unit. A filter regulator adds no oil to the line.
AirTAC publishes G-series flow as curves, not as a single rated number, so we do not quote a figure here. Tell us your line pressure and the air demand of your equipment and we will confirm the relevant datasheet curve and sizing for this unit on request.
The manual drain (code M on this model) means an operator opens the drain to expel collected water, which suits stations that are checked regularly. If the unit sits in an inaccessible spot or runs unattended, choose the automatic drain; the default differential-pressure drain bleeds the bowl using the pressure drop across the element. Note the manual-drain version also widens the regulator adjustment range to 0.05-0.9 MPa (7-130 psi), versus 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) for the auto and differential-pressure drains.
