The AirTAC GFR40010ALJC2K AirTAC Filter Regulator 3/8 in PT 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 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 GFR40010ALJC2K is a GFR-series filter regulator: it removes water and particulate from compressed air and regulates downstream pressure in a single body. This size 400 unit has PT3/8 ports, an automatic drain that bleeds condensate from the PC bowl without manual attention, a 40 um standard filter element, and a round pressure gauge reading in psi. The L code marks the low-pressure regulator type, and a reverse/check valve (K) is fitted. No mounting bracket is included.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR family spans sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with ports from 1/8 to 1 inch, a choice of automatic, manual or differential-pressure drains, 40 um or 5 um (W) filtration, gauge style and scale options, G or NPT threads, and bracket options. Maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and working temperature is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so ask us to confirm figures from the datasheet 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. 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.
| GFR400 | G-series filter regulator, 400 body — sets the port range. |
|---|---|
| 10 | Port size PT3/8". This body offers 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. |
| J | Supplied without bracket. |
| (blank) | Pressure gauge fitted (blank). |
| C | Gauge shape: Round. C is round, F is square. |
| 2 | Gauge scale: psi. 1 is MPa, 2 is psi, 3 is bar. |
| (blank) | Filtering grade 40 µm. Only 40 µm (blank) and 5 µm (W) exist. |
| (blank) | PT 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 clean, regulated low-pressure air to sealing jaws and vacuum generators on a carton-sealing conveyor, with the automatic drain handling condensate through continuous shifts.
Conditioning supply air for pneumatic grippers and cylinders on robotic pick-and-place stations, where the 40 um element protects directional valves from water and debris.
Regulating air to loom jet and actuator circuits that run below standard line pressure, with the fitted psi gauge giving operators a local pressure readout.
Size 400 with PT3/8 ports suits lines needing moderate flow; step up to 600 or down to 300/200 as your demand requires. Choose the drain to match your maintenance access: automatic (this unit), manual, or differential-pressure. Filtration is 40 um standard; specify W for 5 um where finer protection is needed. Gauge scale can be MPa, psi or bar, and threads can be ordered in G (BSPP) or NPT instead of PT. A bracket can be specified if the J (no bracket) option does not suit your mounting. Because flow is published as curves rather than 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 the GFR400 as curves rather than a single rated figure, so no single number is quoted here. Tell us your line pressure and downstream demand and we will confirm the sizing from the datasheet before you order.
The A code fits an automatic drain that ejects collected condensate from the PC bowl without operator attention. Manual and differential-pressure drains are also available in the GFR family if you prefer direct control or a simpler setup.
