About the Airtac B52-GC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GC400C10MC1W
GC400C10MC1W is a genuine AirTAC GC-series three-unit F.R.L. combination: a separate air filter, pressure regulator and lubricator supplied as one coordinated set for compressed air only. This size 400 set is ported 3/8 in. with PT as the standard thread, and the code decodes to a 5 um filter element (W), manual drain bowls (M) and an external round pressure gauge reading in MPa (C1). Maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), the working temperature range is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing), and the filter and lubricator bowls are polycarbonate at this size. Because the drain is manual, the regulator adjusts from 0.05 to 0.9 MPa (7-130 psi).
As a genuine AirTAC part, this set belongs to the GC series offered in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600, with ports stepping from 1/8 in. to 1 in. Drain type, 5 um filtration, gauge scale (MPa, psi or bar), and G (BSPP) or NPT threads are all orderable options. Series flow is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, so ask us to confirm sizing and the datasheet for your application before ordering.

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). The combination has no separate bracket code — the three units couple together with their own mounting hardware. 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, gauge, shape, scale, grade, thread, reflux — there is no bracket position on a combination. Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GF400-C1 filter, GR400-C1 regulator and GL400-C1 lubricator.
Size Class & How It Differs From GFC
- GC200PT1/8" - PT1/4"
- GC300PT1/4" - PT1/2"
- GC400PT3/8" - PT1/2"
- GC600PT3/4" - PT1"
A GC is three separate units, so the filter and the regulator can each be serviced or replaced on their own. A GFC is the two-unit set, where filtering and regulating share one body — shorter, but the two functions come as one part. Both filter, regulate and lubricate.

Where the Airtac B52-GC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GC400C10MC1W Is Used
Paint and powder-coat spray lines
Feeds spray guns and atomising stations on a finishing line, where the 5 um element protects finish quality, the regulator holds gun pressure steady, and the lubricator mists the gun trigger and needle packing. Manual drain suits an attended booth that is checked each shift.
CNC clamping and tool-change circuits
Supplies the pneumatic clamps, drawbar and tool-changer on a machining centre. The regulator sets consistent clamp pressure, the 5 um element guards tight-tolerance valves, and the MPa gauge gives the operator a direct setpoint readout.
Packaging and case-sealing conveyors
Runs the cylinders on carton sealers, case erectors and diverters along a packaging conveyor. Clean, regulated, lubricated air keeps the directional valves and cylinders cycling smoothly through multi-shift production.
Is the Airtac B52-GC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GC400C10MC1W the Right Station?
Move up or down through GC200, GC300, GC400 and GC600 to match the port and flow your line needs; this 400 set sits at 3/8 in. PT. Choose manual drain where an operator can routinely bleed the filter bowl, automatic drain where the point of use is hard to reach, or the differential-pressure default where a pressure drop across the element should prompt draining. This code carries the finer 5 um element instead of the 40 um standard, and its external round gauge reads MPa; psi and bar scales are available. PT is the standard thread, with G (BSPP) and NPT as orderable alternatives, and a mounting bracket is optional. Because published flow is curve-based rather than a single rated number, ask us to check the datasheet against your air consumption before ordering.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (See datasheet here)
- ✓ Element 40 µm or 5 µm
- ✓ Drain sets the regulating band
- ✓ Gauge fitted, shape and scale
- ✓ Three-unit (GC) or two-unit (GFC) layout
- ✓ Oil mist acceptable downstream
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Install with the airflow arrow: filter first, lubricator last.
- check Mount vertically, bowls down.
- check Keep inlet pressure at or below 1.0 MPa (145 psi).
- check Adjust only within 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
- check Drain condensate before the bowl fills; check the oil level.
- check Keep the station above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
The PC bowls must not be cleaned with solvents — wipe them with a dry cloth. The lubricator adds an oil mist downstream of the regulator. If any branch of the line must stay oil-free, take that branch off before the lubricator, or use a GR400-C1 regulator with a GF400-C1 filter on that branch.
Airtac B52-GC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GC400C10MC1W FAQ
AirTAC publishes GC-series flow as performance curves, not as a single rated figure, so we do not quote a number here. Tell us your operating pressure and air consumption and we will confirm the datasheet curve for this size 400, 3/8 in. set on request.
The M code means the filter bowl is drained by hand. With manual drain the regulator adjusts from 0.05 to 0.9 MPa (7-130 psi); with automatic or differential-pressure drain the range is 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20-130 psi). Choose the drain style that matches how often the unit will be serviced.
