The AirTAC GFR300C08MLC2WG AirTAC Filter Regulator G1/4 5 um 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 See datasheet 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 GFR300C08MLC2WG is an AirTAC GFR-series filter regulator: one body that removes water and particulate from compressed air and holds downstream pressure at a set point. This configuration is the 300 size with G1/4 (1/4 in) G-thread ports, the W filter grade (5 um against the 40 um standard), a manual drain on the metal bowl, the low-pressure regulator type, and a round pressure gauge reading in psi. The mounting bracket is included, maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), and the working temperature range is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing).
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR family spans sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with ports from 1/8 to 1 inch, plus options for thread (PT standard, with G and NPT to order), drain type, filter grade, gauge style and scale, and bracket. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so ask us to confirm sizing and 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.

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 spray guns and air-assisted applicators on a paint or coating line, where the 5 um element and a steady regulated set point keep water and grit out of the finish.
Regulating supply pressure to clamp cylinders and power vises on a CNC machining centre, with filtered air protecting the directional valves and actuators downstream.
Supplying filtered, regulated air to sealing jaws and pick-and-place cylinders on a packaging line, with the manual drain suited to lines that get a daily maintenance walk.
The real choices on this series are all decodable from the code: step between sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 to match the port and flow path your line needs; choose the drain - manual as fitted here, or automatic or differential-pressure where the unit is not visited daily; pick 40 um standard filtration or the finer 5 um W grade fitted here; select the gauge scale (MPa, psi or bar) and round or square style; order PT, G or NPT thread; and include or omit the bracket. Because rated flow is published only as curves, not a single figure, send us your pressure and flow requirements and we will confirm the right size 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 flow for this series as curves rather than a single rated figure, so we do not quote a number here. Tell us your working pressure and required flow and we will confirm the sizing against the datasheet on request.
The M in the code sets a manual drain: collected water is released by opening the drain by hand. It suits installations with a regular maintenance walk; if the unit will not be visited daily, ask about the automatic or differential-pressure drain options on the same series.
