The AirTAC GFR400-10 AirTAC Filter Regulator, NPT 3/8 in, 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 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 GFR400-10 is a filter regulator: it removes water and particulate from compressed air and sets downstream pressure in a single 400-size body. This configuration is fitted with a 5 um filter element (the finer of the two catalogue grades), an automatic drain that ejects collected condensate without manual attention, and a round pressure gauge with an MPa scale. A reverse/check valve is fitted, and the standard mounting bracket is included. The 3/8 in NPT port suits mid-to-large air lines feeding valves, cylinders and air tools.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR series is offered in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with a choice of port, thread (PT standard; G and NPT as order options), drain type, filter grade and gauge scale. Maximum working (inlet) pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and the operating temperature range is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so ask us to confirm the datasheet figures for your application.

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. |
| 1 | Gauge scale: MPa. 1 is MPa, 2 is psi, 3 is bar. |
| W | Filtering grade 5 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.

Feeding a bench or C-frame pneumatic press where the 5 um element protects the valve stack and the regulator holds a steady working pressure stroke to stroke.
Conditioning the air supply to a cartoning or wrapping line, with the automatic drain handling condensate on a line that runs unattended through shifts.
Regulating and cleaning shop air ahead of plasma-cutting or spray-finishing stations, where the finer 5 um grade helps keep tips and nozzles clear.
Size and port set the air capacity: step up from 200 through 600 as your line flow demand grows - this 400 size carries a 3/8 in port. Choose the drain to suit access: automatic (as here) for unattended duty, manual where you prefer a controlled blow-down, or the differential-pressure default. The 5 um element (code W) suits finer air-quality needs; the 40 um standard element suits general protection. Gauge scale can be MPa, psi or bar, and the thread can be PT (standard), G or NPT - order the variant you need.
Because flow is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, we do not quote one number here. 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. The reflux valve permits reverse flow through the unit. A filter regulator adds no oil to the line.
AirTAC publishes G-series flow as performance curves rather than a single rated figure, so we do not quote one number. Send us your line conditions and required flow, and we will confirm the datasheet figures for the GFR400-10 on request before you order.
This GFR400-10 carries the automatic drain (code A), which discharges collected condensate from the PC bowl without anyone opening it - useful for units mounted high or on lines that run unattended. Manual and differential-pressure drain versions are available in the same size if you prefer those.
