The AirTAC GFR400C10AC2W AirTAC Filter Regulator PT3/8 5 um Auto Drain 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 See datasheet 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 GFR400C10AC2W is a size 400 filter regulator: one body that removes water and particulate from compressed air and holds downstream pressure at your setpoint. This configuration carries a PT3/8 (3/8 in) port, the finer 5 um filter element, an automatic drain on the polycarbonate bowl, and a round pressure gauge reading in psi. The standard regulator adjusts from 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), and the operating temperature range is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFR series is offered in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with ports from 1/8 to 1 inch, a choice of 40 um or 5 um filtration, differential-pressure, automatic or manual drains, embedded square or external round gauges in MPa, psi or bar scales, and PT, G or NPT threads. 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.

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 clamp and press cylinders on a fixture line: the 5 um element keeps wear particles out of the cylinders while the regulator holds a steady clamping pressure, and the automatic drain clears condensate without an operator stopping by.
Supplying spray guns and atomising air in a finishing booth, where fine 5 um filtration protects finish quality and the psi gauge lets operators set and verify atomising pressure at the point of use.
Feeding diverters, grippers and pushers on a packaging conveyor: one body filters and regulates the supply air, the automatic drain handles condensate on a line that runs unattended, and the round psi gauge makes setpoints visible to the line technician.
Match the size and port to the flow your line needs: this unit is size 400 with a PT3/8 port. Drain choice matters in practice - differential-pressure is the default, automatic (fitted here) suits unattended installations, and manual suits periodic checks. Filtration is 40 um standard or 5 um (code W) as fitted here, for finer protection of downstream components. Gauges are an embedded square gauge or an external round gauge with MPa, psi or bar scales; this unit carries a round psi gauge. Thread is PT as standard, with G (BSPP) and NPT available as order options, and a mounting bracket is included. Flow is published as curves, not a single rating, 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 GFR series as curves, not as a single rated number, so we do not quote a rated flow figure. Tell us your application and we will confirm the flow and datasheet figures for this size 400, PT3/8 unit on request before you order.
W marks the 5 um filter element, the finer of the two grades offered on the GFR series. Without the W, the unit ships with the 40 um standard element. If you need finer protection for sensitive downstream components, choose the W grade as fitted on this unit.
