The AirTAC B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC40015NWK 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).
The GFC40015NWK is AirTAC's G-series two-unit air preparation set for 1/2 in PT threaded lines, pairing a filter-regulator with a lubricator so one assembly filters, regulates and lubricates compressed air. The W code selects the finer 5 um filter element, and the K code adds a reverse (check) valve that helps hold downstream pressure if the supply drops. This version uses a differential-pressure drain and no gauge (N code).
This is a genuine AirTAC part in the 400 size of the G series, which also spans 200, 300 and 600 sizes with ports from 1/8 to 1 in. Options include automatic or manual drains, the standard 40 um element, gauge variants, and G (BSPP) or NPT threads. We confirm flow and datasheet figures 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 0.15 - 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.
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.

Supplies filtered, regulated and lubricated air to a test bench for trailer suspension and brake actuators, with the check valve helping hold test pressure against supply fluctuation.
Conditions air for the diverter gates and stop cylinders on a high-cycle sorting line, where 5 um air protects the pilot valves through rapid cycling.
Feeds hold-down and safety clamp cylinders where the check valve helps maintain the clamped pressure if the plant air supply is interrupted.
Step between sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 to match port and air demand; the 400 size carries the 1/2 in PT port shown here. Keep the W code for 5 um filtration of finer-particle-sensitive equipment, or move to the standard 40 um element for general plant air. Drain choice is differential-pressure here, with automatic (A) or manual (M) variants available. Keep the K code when you want the check valve to hold regulated downstream pressure through supply dips; order a gauge version instead of the N no-gauge code if a reading is needed. Threads are PT (standard), G (BSPP) or NPT. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so ask us to confirm sizing before ordering.
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 GFR400-15 filter regulator on its own.
Flow for the AirTAC G series is published as curves, not as a single rated figure, so no number is stated here. Give us your inlet pressure and required air consumption and we will confirm the flow from the datasheet on request.
W specifies the 5 um filter element instead of the standard 40 um, and K means a reverse (check) valve is fitted so downstream pressure is held back if the upstream supply dips. Both apply to this set; the drain remains the differential-pressure type.
