The AirTAC B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010MC1W 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 manual drain and regulation over 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi).
GFC40010MC1W is a two-piece AirTAC G-series air-treatment set: a 400-size filter-regulator paired with a lubricator, combining filtration, pressure regulation and oil-mist lubrication on one 3/8 in (PT) connection. The M code selects a manual drain on the filter bowl, so condensate is emptied by hand as part of a routine; the set also carries a 5 um filter element and an external round pressure gauge reading in MPa.
It is a genuine AirTAC part. The G-series is made in 200, 300, 400 and 600 sizes with 1/8 to 1 in ports, PC (polycarbonate) bowls on the 200-400 sizes and aluminium alloy bowls at 600, a maximum working pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a -5 to 70 C temperature range on compressed air. Flow is published as curves rather than one rated figure, so ask us and we will confirm the datasheet and sizing figures 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. Standard type, regulating 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 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: 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.

A maintenance-friendly set on the workshop air drops of a metal fabrication shop, where the manual drain suits a daily walk-round routine and the gauge shows the line set point.
Prepared air for the clamps and ejection cylinders of a pneumatic press, with the 5 um element protecting close-tolerance tooling and the lubricator servicing the valve spools.
Filter-regulated, lubricated air on the bench circuit of a commercial-vehicle workshop, where technicians drain the bowl manually between test slots.
Size 400 with a 3/8 in PT port is the G-series mid-step: go up to 600 or down to 300/200 according to the flow your line requires, judged from the published curve rather than a single rating. With the manual drain the regulator adjusts over 0.05-0.9 MPa (7-130 psi) - a wider low end than the 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) range of the differential-pressure and automatic drain versions. The 5 um element is the finer choice against the 40 um standard, and the gauge here is the external round type on an MPa scale, with embedded square gauges and psi or bar scales orderable. PT is the standard thread; G (BSPP) and NPT are options.
Because flow is published as curves and not a single rated number, send us your flow and pressure requirements and we will confirm sizing against the datasheet before you order.
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 G-series flow as curves rather than a single rated figure, so we do not quote one number here. Tell us the flow and working pressure your application needs and we will confirm the correct size against the datasheet on request before you order.
The M drain is emptied by hand as part of a maintenance routine. On manual-drain versions the regulator adjusts over 0.05-0.9 MPa (7-130 psi), a wider low end than the 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) range offered with the differential-pressure and automatic drain options.
