Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40015ALC1W
The AirTAC B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40015ALC1W 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 PT1/2" ports, a 5 µm element, a automatic drain and regulation over 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).

About the Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40015ALC1W
GFC40015ALC1W is an AirTAC G-series two-unit air-treatment set: a GFR400 filter-regulator paired with a GL400 lubricator, covering filtration, pressure regulation and oil-mist lubrication in two pieces. This configuration is sized for 1/2 in. ports with PT thread, uses an automatic drain on the filter bowl, and carries the fine 5 um (W) filter element instead of the standard 40 um. It is the low-pressure (L) type and comes with a round external gauge reading in MPa. Maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and the temperature range is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing. At size 400 the bowls on both units are PC (polycarbonate).
This is a genuine AirTAC part from the GFC series. The same set is offered in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with a choice of PT, G (BSPP) or NPT threads, differential-pressure, automatic or manual drains, 40 um or 5 um (W) filtration, and round or square gauges in MPa, psi or bar scales. AirTAC publishes flow for these units as curves rather than a single rated figure, so we confirm flow and full datasheet details 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.
Model Code: Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40015ALC1W
| GFC400 | G-series two-unit set, 400 body — sets the port range. |
|---|---|
| 15 | Port size PT1/2". 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. |
| (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: GFR400-15 filter regulator and GL400-15 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-GFC40015ALC1W Is Used
Lab automation air supply
Conditioning compressed air for pneumatic actuation on laboratory automation benches, where the 5 um element keeps fine particulates out of sensitive pilot circuits.
CNC machine tool air prep
Treating the shop-air feed to a CNC machining centre's pneumatic clamps and tool-change circuits, with regulation and lubrication set at the machine's 1/2 in. inlet.
Paint-line valve conditioning
Supplying filtered, regulated and lubricated air to the actuated valves of a finishing line, with fine filtration ahead of the valve bank from a 1/2 in. branch.
Is the Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40015ALC1W the Right Set?
Size and port come first: 400 with 1/2 in. PT suits mid-size plant air take-offs; step up to 600 (1 in.) or down to 300 or 200 if your line volume differs - match the step to required flow, which we confirm from the flow curves before you order. Drain choice: automatic empties the filter bowl without operator attention; manual gives deliberate control; the differential-pressure default triggers on pressure drop. Filter grade: the W suffix here selects the 5 um element for finer particulate protection than the 40 um standard. Gauge: this set carries a round gauge on the 1 (MPa) scale; square-gauge (F) variants and psi or bar scales are orderable. Thread: PT is standard; G and NPT are catalogue options.
As the low-pressure (L) type, the catalogue adjustment range quoted for the automatic-drain version is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi); we confirm the L-type adjustment limits against the datasheet on request before you order.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (PT1/2" 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 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 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 GFR400-15 filter regulator on its own.
Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40015ALC1W FAQ
AirTAC publishes flow for this series as curves, not as a single rated figure, so there is no one number we can quote. Tell us your working pressure and air demand and we will confirm the flow from the datasheet on request, including whether 400 size at 1/2 in. matches your application.
W selects the 5 um filter element in place of the 40 um standard, for finer particulate protection downstream. Everything else in the code is unchanged: 400 size, 1/2 in. PT port, automatic drain, low-pressure type and round MPa gauge. We confirm datasheet details on request.
