Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40015C1W
The AirTAC B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40015C1W 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 differential-pressure drain and regulation over 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).

About the Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40015C1W
The AirTAC GFC series is a two-unit air preparation set: a filter-regulator that removes water and particulate and holds downstream pressure, paired with a separate lubricator that meters oil mist into the air line. This GFC40015C1W is built on the 400 size with PT1/2 (PT) ports, a 5 um filter element (the W grade), differential-pressure drain bowls and an external round pressure gauge on the MPa scale. Maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and the working temperature range is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing; at the 400 size the filter-regulator and lubricator bowls are PC (polycarbonate).
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GFC family spans sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600, with differential-pressure, automatic or manual drains, 40 um or 5 um filtration, square or round gauges in MPa, psi or bar scales, and G (BSPP) or NPT thread options to order. Flow figures are published as curves rather than a single rating - ask us to confirm sizing and the datasheet for your application.

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 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 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: GFR400-15 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-GFC40015C1W Is Used
CNC machining cell
Feeding clean, regulated, lubricated air to the pallet-clamping and tool-change circuits of a CNC machining centre, with the 5 um element protecting tight-tolerance directional valves.
Packaging line actuators
Supplying case-erectors and carton-sealing cylinders on a packaging line, where the lubricator keeps cylinder seals running and the regulator holds consistent actuation.
Robotic gripper cell
Air preparation for a pick-and-place robot's gripper and vacuum-generator circuit, with the MPa-scale gauge reading matched to the plant's instrument standard.
Is the Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40015C1W the Right Set?
Step between sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 to match port and flow demand; the 400 size with PT1/2 ports sits in the mid-to-large range for machine supply lines. Drain type matters: differential-pressure (as here) drains with flow, automatic drains without operator attention, and manual is the simplest - note the regulator setting range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) with differential-pressure or automatic drain, and widens to 0.05-0.9 MPa (7-130 psi) with manual drain. The 5 um element (W) gives finer filtration than the 40 um standard where downstream valves need cleaner air; the round gauge here reads MPa, with psi or bar selectable. Thread is PT as standard; G (BSPP) and NPT are catalogue options to order.
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 (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-GFC40015C1W FAQ
AirTAC publishes G-series flow as performance curves rather than a single rated figure, so we do not quote one number here. Send us your line pressure, port size and downstream demand and we will confirm the correct sizing and provide the datasheet on request.
The W suffix selects the 5 um filter element instead of the 40 um standard, suited to protecting fine pilot valves. The C1 code selects the external round gauge with MPa scale; psi and bar scales are available on the C2 and C3 variants. Drain here is differential-pressure; automatic (A) and manual (M) versions exist in the same size.
