The AirTAC B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010ALNW 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 PT3/8" ports, a 5 µm element, a automatic drain and regulation over 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
GFC40010ALNW is a genuine AirTAC two-unit F.R.L. set from the G series: a size 400 filter-regulator paired with a lubricator, giving filtration, pressure regulation and oil-mist lubrication on one order line. The code decodes to PT3/8 ports, a 5 um filter element (W), automatic condensate drain (A) and the low-pressure regulator type (L), with no gauge fitted. The size 400 bowls are polycarbonate, maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), and the working temperature range is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing.
As the L type, the regulator is intended for circuits set below the standard adjustment band; ask us to confirm the exact adjustment range for this variant before ordering. The same GFC series is available in 200, 300, 400 and 600 sizes with ports from 1/8 to 1 inch, 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 G (BSPP) or NPT threads as catalogue options. AirTAC publishes flow as curves rather than a single rated figure, so we confirm the datasheet and flow curve for your application 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. The low-pressure type adjusts over a lower band than standard; we confirm the exact figures from the factory datasheet. 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.

|---|---|
| 10 | Port size PT3/8". This body offers 10 = PT3/8", 15 = PT1/2". |
| A | Drain: Automatic drain — this also sets the regulating band (0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi)). |
| L | Low-pressure type. Blank is standard, L is the low-pressure type. |
| N | No pressure gauge (N). |
| (blank) | Gauge shape: Factory standard. C is round, F is square. |
| (blank) | Gauge scale: Factory standard. 1 is MPa, 2 is psi, 3 is bar. |
| W | Filtering grade 5 µm. Only 40 µm (blank) and 5 µm (W) exist. |
| (blank) | PT 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, gauge, shape, scale, grade, thread, reflux — there is no bracket position on a combination set. Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GFR400-10 filter regulator and GL400-10 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.

Filters, regulates and lubricates the air feeding pneumatic clamps on a CNC machining fixture, with the automatic drain clearing condensate from the bowl without operator attention.
Conditions the supply to pusher and divert cylinders on a carton packaging line; the automatic drain handles condensate during continuous running and the 5 um element protects the machine valves.
Conditions the drop air at a workshop assembly bench so impact drivers and ratchets receive dry, regulated, oil-misted air through the 5 um element.
Step through the 200/300/400/600 sizes to match the port and flow your line needs; this size 400 unit carries PT3/8 ports. For the air-quality part of the decision there are three drain types - the default differential-pressure drain, automatic (fitted here) or manual - and two filter grades, 40 um standard or 5 um (fitted here) for finer particulate. Thread is PT as standard, with G (BSPP) and NPT available as catalogue options, and the gaugeless configuration suits panels where no local pressure reading is wanted. Because AirTAC publishes flow as curves and not one rated number, 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 GFR400-10 filter regulator on its own.
AirTAC publishes flow for the GFC series as curves, not as a single rated figure, so we do not quote a number here. Ask us for the datasheet and we will confirm the flow curve and check the sizing for your application before you order.
The A selects the automatic drain on the filter-regulator bowl, so condensate is discharged without manual intervention. If you would rather have the default differential-pressure drain or a manual drain, tell us and we will quote the matching suffix.
