Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010MC1WK
The AirTAC B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010MC1WK 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).

About the Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010MC1WK
The AirTAC GFC series is a two-unit air preparation set: a filter-regulator and a lubricator working as a pair to clean, regulate and oil-mist lubricate compressed air in one installation. This GFC40010MC1WK is the size 400 frame with PT3/8 ports and PT (parallel taper) thread as standard. The filter stage is set to the fine 5 um element, the bowls drain manually, the regulator carries an external round pressure gauge reading in MPa, and a reverse (check) valve is fitted so downstream pressure is held if the upstream supply is interrupted.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The G series runs from size 200 to 600 with a choice of ports, drain types, 40 um or 5 um filtration, gauge styles and scales, and G (BSPP) or NPT thread options. Maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and the operating temperature range is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing). Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so we confirm the exact datasheet figures on request before you order.

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.
Model Code: Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010MC1WK
| GFC400 | G-series two-unit set, 400 body — sets the port range. |
|---|---|
| 10 | Port size PT3/8". This body offers 10 = PT3/8", 15 = PT1/2". |
| M | Drain: Manual drain — this also sets the regulating band (0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi)). |
| (blank) | Standard type. Blank is standard, L is the low-pressure type. |
| (blank) | Pressure gauge fitted (blank). |
| C | Gauge shape: Round. C is round, F is square. |
| 1 | Gauge scale: MPa. 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. |
| K | Reverse-flow (reflux) valve fitted. |
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.
Size Class & How It Differs From GC
- GFC200PT1/8" - PT1/4"
- GFC300PT1/4" - PT1/2"
- GFC400PT3/8" - PT1/2"
- GFC600PT3/4" - PT1"
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.

Where the Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010MC1WK Is Used
Bottling line conveyor cylinders
Clean, regulated and lubricated air for the pusher and stopper cylinders that index bottles along a filling conveyor, with the check valve holding the circuit if upstream air dips.
Pneumatic press tooling
Feeds a bench-mounted pneumatic press where the operator sets pressure on the round MPa gauge and the 5 um element shields the valve manifold from fine particulate.
Textile machine air jets
Supplies lint-laden textile machinery with filtered and oiled air so splicer and doffer cylinders keep moving smoothly shift after shift.
Is the Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010MC1WK the Right Set?
Start with the port step: size 400 in 3/8in suits mid-size machine supply lines; step up to size 600 or down to 300 according to the pipe and air demand of the equipment. Because the bowls drain manually, plan a walk-round drain routine - or select an automatic-drain code if nobody is on site regularly. The 5 um element here protects downstream valves and cylinders more finely than the standard 40 um; keep 40 um for general service. The round MPa gauge is an option on top of the embedded square gauge, and G (BSPP) or NPT threads are available as catalogue options instead of the PT standard. Flow is published as curves, not a single rating - ask us to confirm sizing against your application before ordering.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (PT3/8" here)
- ✓ Element 40 µm or 5 µm
- ✓ Drain sets the regulating band
- ✓ Gauge fitted, shape and scale
- ✓ Two-unit (GFC) or three-unit (GC) layout
- ✓ Oil mist acceptable downstream
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Install with the airflow arrow: filter regulator first, lubricator last.
- check Mount vertically, bowls down.
- check Keep inlet pressure at or below 1.0 MPa (145 psi).
- check Adjust only within 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi).
- check Drain condensate before the bowl fills; check the oil level.
- check Keep the set 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, 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 B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010MC1WK FAQ
AirTAC publishes flow for this series as curves, not as a single rated number, so we do not quote a figure here. Tell us your working pressure and demand and we will confirm the sizing from the datasheet on request before you order.
Manual drain means someone opens the drain on each bowl by hand, which suits attended machines and keeps the drain path simple. If the set sits in an unattended corner, choose the automatic-drain (A) version of the same code instead.
