The AirTAC B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC30008NW is a genuine G-series two-unit air-preparation set: a filter regulator that filters and regulates in one body, coupled to a lubricator. Two bodies do the work of three, with PT1/4" ports, a 5 µm element, a differential-pressure drain and regulation over 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
The AirTAC GFC two-unit set pairs a filter-regulator with a lubricator, giving filtration, pressure regulation and oil-mist lubrication in one assembly. This GFC30008NW is built for 1/4 in. PT ports, uses the differential-pressure drain that bleeds condensate as air flows through, a 5 um fine filter element in place of the standard 40 um grade, and no gauge. With differential-pressure drainage the regulator adjusts from 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20-130 psi).
It is a genuine AirTAC part, rated for compressed air at up to 1.0 MPa (145 psi) inlet and -5 to 70 C, non-freezing, with polycarbonate bowls at this 300 size. The GFC series spans sizes 200 to 600 with drain-type choices, gauge variants, a reverse-valve option and G (BSPP) or NPT threads. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so we confirm flow and 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). The set has no separate bracket code — the two 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 set. Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GFR300-08 filter regulator and GL300-08 lubricator.
A GFC is two units because filtering and regulating share one body. A GC is three separate units — filter, regulator and lubricator. Both filter, regulate and lubricate; the GFC is the shorter assembly, the GC keeps the filter and regulator serviceable as separate bodies.

Conditioning instrument air for lab analyzers and sample-handling panels, where the 5 um element gives finer filtration than the standard 40 um grade ahead of sensitive pneumatic components.
Supplying the pneumatic feed of a PCB pick-and-place machine, with filtered, regulated and lubricated air serving the placement-head cylinders and the differential-pressure drain clearing condensate automatically.
Feeding the short-stroke cylinders on a labelling machine's application head, where the regulator sets the head pressure and the lubricator mists oil for the cylinders on each stroke.
Choose the size step (200, 300, 400 or 600) against the port and air demand of the line; this set is size 300 with 1/4 in. PT ports. Drain options are differential-pressure (this set, the default), automatic (A) or manual (M); the W in this code selects the 5 um filter element against the 40 um standard, for finer particulate removal ahead of sensitive components. Gauge variants add an embedded square or external round gauge on MPa, psi or bar scales. Thread is PT as standard, with G (BSPP) and NPT catalogue options. Because flow is published as curves rather than one rated figure, ask us to confirm sizing against your application before ordering.
Quick checklist
The PC bowls must not be cleaned with solvents — wipe them with a dry cloth. The lubricator adds an oil mist downstream, so if any branch must stay oil-free, take that branch off before the lubricator or use a GFR300-08 filter regulator on its own.
Flow for the GFC300 is published as curves in the AirTAC datasheet, not as a single rated figure, so we do not state a number on the page. Send us your line pressure and air demand and we will confirm the curve and sizing from the datasheet on request before you order.
W changes the filter element from the standard 40 um grade to 5 um, for finer particulate removal ahead of sensitive devices such as precision valves, cylinders with close-tolerance seals or instrumentation. If your air feeds general plant equipment, the standard 40 um GFC30008N keeps the choice simpler and remains a catalogue variant of the same set.
