Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010MLC1W
The AirTAC B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010MLC1W 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-GFC40010MLC1W
The AirTAC GFC series combines a filter-regulator and a lubricator into a two-piece air preparation set that cleans, regulates and lubricates compressed air at the point of use. This GFC40010MLC1W is built on the size 400 frame with PT3/8 ports and the PT thread as standard. The filter element is the fine 5 um grade, the bowls drain manually, the regulator is the low-pressure (L) type for circuits that must not run at full line pressure, and an external round gauge reading in MPa is fitted.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The G series spans sizes 200 to 600 with choices of port, drain type, 40 um or 5 um filtration, gauge style and scale, and G (BSPP) or NPT thread options. Maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and the temperature range is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing). Because the L type carries a reduced adjustment span, we confirm the exact range and the datasheet flow curves 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.
Model Code: Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010MLC1W
| 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)). |
| L | Low-pressure 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. |
| (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.
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-GFC40010MLC1W Is Used
Lab automation actuators
Regulates supply to laboratory grippers and lift cylinders that work at deliberately low pressure, with 5 um filtration keeping fine valves clean.
Packaging carton erectors
Prepares air for the low-pressure cylinders that fold and tuck cartons, while the lubricator keeps the seal-less valve spools moving freely.
Assembly bench air tools
Serves a workstation where operators dial in gentle clamp pressure on the MPa gauge and manual bowl drains are part of the end-of-shift routine.
Is the Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40010MLC1W the Right Set?
The L in this code matters: this is the low-pressure regulator type, chosen when the downstream circuit runs at reduced pressure and a standard span is more than you need - we confirm its exact adjustment range on request before you commit. Size 400 with 3/8in ports fits mid-size supply lines; step up or down a size to match the pipe. Manual drain suits attended equipment; choose automatic drain if the set is hard to reach. The 5 um element is the finer option versus the standard 40 um, and the round MPa gauge can be swapped for other scales or G/NPT thread options when ordering. 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-GFC40010MLC1W FAQ
AirTAC publishes flow for this series as curves rather than one rated figure, so we do not quote a number here. Send us your pressure and demand and we will confirm the datasheet figures on request to check the size is right.
It marks the low-pressure regulator type, intended for circuits held at reduced pressure instead of the full standard adjustment span. We confirm the exact adjustment range for the L type on request so you can match it to your process.
