The AirTAC GFR40015JC3T 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 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 AirTAC GFR40015JC3T is a size 400 filter regulator that removes water and particulate from compressed air and regulates downstream pressure in a single body. This configuration has a 1/2 in NPT port, the standard 40 um filter element, a differential-pressure drain that bleeds accumulated condensate automatically as flow passes through, and a round pressure gauge reading in bar. The standard regulator covers an adjustment range of 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), with a maximum inlet pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and an operating temperature of -5 to 70 C (non-freezing). The polycarbonate bowl suits the 400 size, and this unit is ordered without a mounting bracket.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR family spans sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with port options from 1/8 in to 1 in, thread choices of PT (standard), G and NPT, manual or automatic drain variants, a 5 um element option, and gauge or no-gauge builds. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, so ask us to confirm the datasheet and sizing 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.

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 air to the tool-change clamps and chuck actuation on a CNC machining centre, where a 1/2 in main drops pressure for the machine's pneumatic circuit.
Supplying filtered, regulated air to the pop-up diverters and stopper cylinders along a distribution-centre conveyor line, keeping water and pipe scale out of the directional valves.
Conditioning the plant air feeding a carton-forming and sealing machine's cylinder bank, with the bar gauge giving operators a visible setpoint at the machine frame.
Size 400 with a 1/2 in NPT port sits in the upper-middle of the GFR range; step up or down a size if your line's flow demand or existing piping points elsewhere. The standard 40 um element suits general plant air; choose the 5 um (W) variant where downstream valves or instruments need finer filtration. This unit uses the differential-pressure drain, which needs no daily attention; pick a manual-drain (M) or automatic-drain (A) code if your maintenance routine differs. The round gauge here reads in bar; square-gauge and MPa or psi scales are available in the family. PT is the standard thread, with G and NPT as orderable options - this unit is built with NPT. Bracket inclusion is optional (J codes omit it).
Because flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, 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 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 data from the datasheet so you can size the unit correctly before ordering.
This unit's differential-pressure drain bleeds condensate from the bowl automatically as air flows through, with no operator action. If your line has long idle periods where little air passes, a manual-drain (M) or automatic-drain (A) version of the same GFR400 may suit better - both are orderable options.
