The AirTAC GFR300-08 AirTAC Filter Regulator, NPT1/4, Low-Pressure is a genuine G-series filter regulator: water separation, 40 µm particulate filtration and balanced-type pressure regulation combined in a single body. It has PT1/4" ports, a automatic 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 GFR300-08ALNTK is a size-300 filter regulator: it removes water and particulate from compressed air and regulates downstream pressure in a single body. This configuration has a 1/4 in NPT port, an automatic drain that discharges collected condensate without manual attention, and a 40 um standard filter element. It is the low-pressure type and carries a built-in reverse (check) valve, so downstream pressure is held if the upstream supply is lost. No gauge is fitted on this variant, and a mounting bracket is included.
This is a genuine AirTAC part from the GFR filter-regulator line, which spans sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with port sizes from 1/8 in to 1 in and PT, G or NPT threads. Flow figures are published as curves rather than a single rating, so contact 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.
| GFR300 | G-series filter regulator, 300 body — sets the port range. |
|---|---|
| 08 | Port size PT1/4". This body offers 08 = PT1/4", 10 = PT3/8", 15 = PT1/2". |
| A | Drain: Automatic drain — this also sets the regulating band (0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi)). |
| L | Low-pressure type. Blank is standard, L is the low-pressure type. |
| (blank) | Mounting bracket included. |
| N | No pressure gauge (N). |
| (blank) | Gauge shape: Factory standard. C is round, F is square. |
| (blank) | Gauge scale: Factory standard. 1 is MPa, 2 is psi, 3 is bar. |
| (blank) | Filtering grade 40 µm. Only 40 µm (blank) and 5 µm (W) exist. |
| T | NPT thread. PT is the default; G is BSPP and T is NPT. |
| K | Reverse-flow (reflux) valve fitted. |
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 filtered, regulated air to clamp cylinders on a CNC fixture line, with the check valve holding clamp pressure if the main supply drops.
Conditions the air feeding sealing jaws and pick-and-place cylinders on a cartoning or wrapping line, with automatic drain keeping condensate off the machine floor.
Supplies regulated air to divertor gates and stopper cylinders on a conveyor segment where a low-pressure setting is required.
Size 300 with a 1/4 in NPT port suits lines where 1/4 in piping is the standard; step up to size 400/600 or down to size 200 if your flow path or porting differs. The automatic drain on this unit suits unattended or hard-to-reach installations; manual and differential-pressure drain variants exist if you prefer operator-controlled or pressure-differential draining. The 40 um element is the standard grade; a 5 um element (code W) is available when finer filtration is needed. Thread choice matters when ordering: PT is the catalogue standard, while G (BSPP) and NPT are order options - this unit is ordered with NPT. A bracket is included; gauge, scale and reverse-valve options are chosen at order time on other variants.
Because flow is published as curves and not as a single 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 flow for this series as curves rather than a single rated figure, so we do not quote a number here. Contact us with your line pressure and downstream demand and we will confirm the datasheet flow figures for this exact configuration on request.
The K in the code GFR300-08ALNTK means a reverse (check) valve is fitted, so downstream pressure is retained if upstream supply is interrupted. The N means no gauge is supplied with this variant; gauge options with different scales are available on other GFR300 order codes.
