The AirTAC GFR20008JC3WT AirTAC Filter Regulator NPT1/4 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 PT1/4" 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.
The AirTAC GFR20008JC3WT is a size-200 filter regulator: it removes water and particulate from compressed air and sets a stable downstream pressure in one compact body. This configuration is threaded NPT1/4 (1/4 in), carries the fine 5 um filter element (code W) instead of the 40 um standard element, drains condensate by the differential-pressure method, and is fitted with an external round pressure gauge reading in bar. The regulator is the standard type with an adjustment range of 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), and the unit is ordered without a mounting bracket. The polycarbonate bowl suits the -5 to 70 C (non-freezing) working range, and maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi).
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR family is available in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with port sizes from 1/8 in to 1 in, a choice of differential-pressure, automatic or manual drains, 40 um or 5 um filtration, gauge styles and scales, and PT, G or NPT threads. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so ask us to confirm the 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 0.15 - 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.

| C | Gauge shape: Round. C is round, F is square. |

| W | Filtering grade 5 µm. Only 40 µm (blank) and 5 µm (W) exist. |

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.

Feeding a bench pneumatic press or clamping fixture: the 5 um element keeps fine dirt out of the cylinder valves while the regulator holds the set working pressure the tooling was designed around.
Supplying pick-and-place cylinders and diverters on a packaging or bottling conveyor, where the differential-pressure drain clears collected condensate during normal operation without stopping the line.
Conditioning shop air for a lab test bench or pilot rig, where the fine 5 um grade and a bar-reading gauge give cleaner air and a directly readable set pressure for repeatable runs.
Size the unit by the port and flow step: this is size 200 with a 1/4 in NPT port, the smallest GFR frame - step up to 300, 400 or 600 if your line needs more flow. This unit already carries the fine 5 um element (W); choose the blank 40 um grade only if coarse water and particulate removal is enough. Drain is differential-pressure here; automatic (A) or manual (M) drains are the other catalogue choices. The fitted round gauge reads in bar; square embedded gauges and MPa or psi scales are alternatives. Thread is NPT on this code - PT is the standard thread and G (BSPP) is the other order option. A bracket is omitted (J) on this code but can be included. Because flow is published as curves and not a single rating, send us your application details 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. Without the K option, air cannot flow back through the unit. A filter regulator adds no oil to the line.
AirTAC publishes G-series flow as curves rather than a single rated figure, so we do not quote a rated flow, Cv or l/min number. Send us your application details and we will confirm the relevant datasheet flow-curve figures for this 1/4 in size-200 unit before you order.
The W code in GFR20008JC3WT selects the optional 5 um filtration grade; the catalogue default for GFR units is 40 um. Choose 5 um where downstream valves, cylinders or instruments need finer particulate removal, and 40 um where coarse water and dirt removal is sufficient.
