The AirTAC GFR300-10G AirTAC Filter Regulator G3/8, 5um, Auto 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 PT3/8" 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 GFR300-10G is a filter regulator: it removes water and particulate from compressed air and regulates downstream pressure in one body. This configuration has a G3/8 (BSPP) port, a 5 um filter element (code W, against the 40 um standard), an automatic drain that ejects condensate without operator attention, an embedded square gauge reading in psi, and no mounting bracket. Maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), the standard regulator adjusts from 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), and the operating temperature range is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing). The bowl on this 300 size is polycarbonate; only the 600 size uses an aluminium alloy bowl.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR family is offered in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with ports from 1/8 to 1 inch, a choice of PT, G or NPT thread, manual, automatic or differential-pressure drains, 40 um or 5 um filtration, and gauge options. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, so ask us to confirm the datasheet and sizing 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.

|---|---|
| 10 | Port size PT3/8". 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)). |
| (blank) | Standard type. Blank is standard, L is the low-pressure type. |
| J | Supplied without bracket. |
| (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. |
| G | G (BSPP) thread. PT is the default; G is BSPP and T is NPT. |
| (blank) | No reverse-flow valve (the default). |
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 sealing jaws and carton-closing cylinders on a packaging machine: the 5 um element protects the valves from water and debris while the regulator holds a steady working pressure for consistent seal actuation.
Supplying clamp cylinders on a CNC fixture: the regulator sets and holds the clamping pressure so parts stay gripped through the cycle, and the automatic drain keeps condensate out of the clamp circuit.
Running divert gates and stopper cylinders along a conveyor line: clean, regulated air keeps gate timing repeatable, and the psi square gauge lets operators verify set pressure at a glance.
Size and port set the capacity: this unit is size 300 with a 3/8 inch port; step up to 400 or 600 where air demand is larger. Drain type follows maintenance practice: automatic (this unit) clears condensate by itself, manual needs an operator, and differential-pressure drain is the catalogue default. Filtration is 5 um here (code W) versus the 40 um standard - choose 5 um where downstream valves and cylinders need finer protection. The embedded square gauge reads psi; MPa and bar scales are available and an external round gauge is optional. Thread is G (BSPP); PT is the standard and NPT is an order option. A bracket is optional and not fitted on this code. Flow is published as curves, not a single rating, so 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. Without the K option, air cannot flow back through the unit. A filter regulator adds no oil to the line.
AirTAC publishes flow for this family as curves, not as a single rated figure, so we do not quote a number here. Send us your application details and we will confirm the flow and sizing from the datasheet on request before you order.
This code carries the W option, a 5 um element, instead of the 40 um standard. The finer grade suits circuits with sensitive valves, cylinders or instrumentation downstream; the 40 um grade is the usual choice for general air preparation. Both are catalogue options across the GFR range.
