The AirTAC GFR40015MLJC2G AirTAC Filter Regulator G1/2 Low-Pressure 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 manual drain and regulates 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi). It does not lubricate — add a GL lubricator, or order the GFC two-unit set, if downstream equipment needs oil.
The AirTAC GFR400-15 is a filter regulator: one body that removes water and particulate from compressed air and then regulates downstream pressure. This configuration is the size 400 unit with a G1/2 (BSPP) port, a manual drain bowl in polycarbonate, the standard 40 um filter element, and the low-pressure regulator type suited to applications that run below standard line pressures. It is supplied with an external round gauge on a psi scale, without a mounting bracket, and without a reverse/check valve.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR family is available in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with port sizes from 1/8 to 1 inch, a choice of manual, automatic or differential-pressure drains, 40 um or 5 um filtration, gauge styles and scales, and PT, G or NPT threads. Maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and the working temperature range is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so ask us to confirm sizing and 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. 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.

|---|---|
| 15 | Port size PT1/2". This body offers 10 = PT3/8", 15 = PT1/2". |
| M | Drain: Manual drain — this also sets the regulating band (0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 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. |
| G | G (BSPP) thread. PT is the default; G is BSPP and T is NPT. |
| (blank) | No reverse-flow valve (the default). |
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 the pneumatic cylinders and grippers on a carton-forming or wrapping line, cleaning the shop air and holding a steady low supply pressure so sealing and folding motions stay repeatable.
Supplies the directional valves and air cylinders that divert cartons or totes on a distribution conveyor, with the manual drain bowl emptied during scheduled line checks.
Conditions the compressed air feeding bench-mounted test rigs and sample-handling actuators, where the 40 um element protects sensitive components and the psi gauge gives a readable setpoint.
Start with the port and size step: size 400 with a G1/2 port sits in the middle of the GFR range, so step up to size 600 if your line demands more flow, or down to 300/200 for compact circuits. This unit has a manual drain, which suits installations where an operator checks the bowl as part of a routine; choose automatic or differential-pressure drain variants if the bowl cannot be attended. The standard 40 um element is fitted here; specify the W code for 5 um when finer particulate removal matters. The regulator is the low-pressure type, and the exact adjustment range for that version is not published in our data, so confirm it with us before ordering. Gauge scale is psi on this unit; MPa or bar scales and an embedded square gauge are alternatives. Thread is G (BSPP); PT is the standard thread and NPT is an order option. A bracket is not included with this code but is available on other variants. Flow is published as curves, not a single rating, so 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. 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 GFR series as curves, not as a single rated figure, so we do not quote a number. Send us your line pressure, downstream demand and acceptable pressure drop, and we will confirm the right size against the datasheet curves on request.
The M in the code selects a manual drain:condensate is released by operating the drain by hand, which suits attended installations. The C2 selects an external round gauge on a psi scale; an embedded square gauge with MPa, psi or bar scales is available on other variants.
