The AirTAC GFR40015AC1T AirTAC Filter Regulator NPT1/2 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 PT1/2" 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 GFR40015AC1T is a size 400 filter regulator: it removes water and particulate from compressed air and regulates downstream pressure in a single body. This configuration has a 1/2 in NPT port, an automatic drain that discharges collected condensate from the PC bowl without manual attention, a 40 um standard filter element, a standard-type regulator with a 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) adjustment range, and a round pressure gauge with an MPa scale. A mounting bracket is included, and the maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi).
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR family is available in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with port sizes from 1/8 in to 1 in, a choice of differential-pressure, automatic or manual drain, a 5 um optional element (code W), gauge scale options, and G or NPT thread variants. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so we confirm datasheet figures 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. 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.

Feeds filtered, regulated air to the tool-change clamps and pneumatic actuators on a CNC machining centre, with the automatic drain handling condensate between shifts.
Supplies clean, regulated air to the cylinders and grippers on a carton packaging line, holding a stable setpoint as stations cycle throughout the run.
Conditions the air feeding spray equipment and transfer cylinders in a finishing shop, removing water and particulate before regulation at the point of use.
Start with the port step: size 400 with a 1/2 in port suits lines running larger air consumption than the 200/300 sizes; match the port to your downstream piping rather than oversizing on guesswork. Choose the drain to match access: automatic (this unit) suits installations that are not checked daily; manual suits attended stations; differential-pressure is the default. The 40 um element is standard; specify the 5 um W grade where finer particulate removal is needed. Gauge scale is selectable (MPa, psi or bar), and thread is PT as standard with G and NPT as order options - this unit is the NPT version.
Flow for this family is published as curves, not a single rated figure, 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 the GFR400 series as curves, not as a single rated figure, so we do not quote a number here. Tell us your application and we will confirm the flow figures from the datasheet on request before you order.
The A in the code means the bowl drains collected condensate automatically, which suits installations that are not checked every day. With an automatic drain this standard-type regulator adjusts from 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi); manual-drain versions of the same family adjust from 0.05-0.9 MPa (7-130 psi).
