The AirTAC GFR200-06T AirTAC Filter Regulator, NPT 1/8, 5 um 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 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 AirTAC GFR200-06T is a filter regulator: it removes water and particulate from compressed air and regulates downstream pressure in a single compact body. This size 200 unit is built with a 1/8 in NPT port, the low-pressure regulator type, a fine 5 um filter element (the 40 um standard element is the alternative), a differential-pressure drain that bleeds collected condensate automatically as flow passes through, a round pressure gauge reading in MPa, and a mounting bracket. The polycarbonate bowl lets you see the condensate level at a glance, and the unit handles a maximum inlet pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) at temperatures from -5 to 70 C (non-freezing).
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR filter-regulator family spans sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with port sizes from 1/8 in up to 1 in, a choice of differential-pressure, automatic or manual drains, 40 um or 5 um filtration, gauge styles and MPa/psi/bar scales, and G (BSPP), NPT or PT threads. Flow for this model is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, so ask us and we will 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. The low-pressure type adjusts over a lower band than standard; we confirm the exact figures from the factory datasheet. 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.

On a milling or turning cell, air-powered clamps hold the workpiece while the cycle runs. A filter regulator at the fixture supply keeps chips and moisture out of the clamp cylinders and holds the clamp pressure steady for the duration of the cut, with the 5 um element protecting the clamp valve spools.
Packaging lines use short-stroke air cylinders to push, divert and gate products between conveyor lanes. This unit conditions and regulates the supply to those gate cylinders, and the low-pressure regulator type suits circuits that run at reduced working pressure, with the round MPa gauge giving the line technician a visible setpoint.
Test and research benches driving small pneumatic actuators need clean, stable, low-pressure air. The 5 um filtration protects precision bench components, the differential-pressure drain handles condensate without operator attention, and the compact 1/8 in port fits the tight tubing runs typical of benchtop rigs.
Start with the port step: size 200 with a 1/8 in port suits compact circuits, and stepping up to GFR300/400/600 gives larger ports and more flow capacity - match the size to the air demand of the circuit rather than the fitting alone. This unit is the low-pressure regulator type, so choose it where the working pressure sits in the lower part of the range; the exact adjustment window for the low-pressure type is not published in the standard table, so confirm it with us before ordering. The 5 um element (code W) is the finer choice for sensitive downstream components; the 40 um standard element suits general protection. Drain options are differential-pressure (fitted here), automatic, or manual. Gauge scales are available in MPa, psi or bar (MPa round gauge fitted here). PT is the standard thread; G (BSPP) and NPT (fitted here) are catalogue options ordered by suffix, and a bracket is included.
One honest note on sizing: AirTAC publishes flow for this family as curves, not as a single rated number, so we do not quote a flow figure here. Send us your application details and we will confirm the sizing against the datasheet curves before you order.
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.
AirTAC publishes flow for the GFR family as curves, not as a single rated figure, so we do not quote a flow number for this model. Tell us your application - the air demand of the downstream cylinders or equipment and your working pressure - and we will confirm the sizing against the datasheet curves on request before you order.
The W suffix on this model specifies the 5 um element, the finer of the two published grades, which suits sensitive downstream components such as precision valves and actuators. The 40 um element is the standard grade for general-purpose protection and is available on the same size 200 body - order the version without the W suffix if coarse filtration is sufficient for your circuit.
