Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC400C15NW
The AirTAC B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC400C15NW 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 See datasheet ports, a 40 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-GFC400C15NW
GFC400C15NW is a genuine AirTAC G-series two-unit set combining a filter-regulator and a lubricator in one order, providing filtration, pressure regulation and oil-mist lubrication of compressed air. This size 400 configuration is ported 1/2 in with PT thread as standard and specifies the 5 um filter element (code W) instead of the standard 40 um grade, making it the version to specify where finer air quality matters. The bowls use the default differential-pressure drain, the regulator adjusts from 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), and no gauge or check valve is fitted. Maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi); operating temperature is -5 to 70 C.
The G-series two-unit family runs from sizes 200 through 600, with differential-pressure, automatic or manual draining, 40 um or 5 um filtration, gauge options, check-valve variants, and G (BSPP) or NPT threads as catalogue alternatives to the standard PT. Both bowls on this size are polycarbonate. Flow for the series is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, so we confirm datasheet and flow figures 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. 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-C1 filter regulator and GL400-C1 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-GFC400C15NW Is Used
Laboratory test rig
Supplies regulated air to pneumatic test benches and calibration rigs in a lab, where 5 um filtration protects precision components and the lubricator can be dosed only where moving parts need it.
Sensor air on an assembly line
Feeds pneumatic proximity sensors and air-gauge measuring points along an assembly line, where finer 5 um air helps keep small orifices clear and the regulator holds a stable measuring pressure.
Air-motor drive on a bottling line
Prepares supply air for air-motor drives and rapid-cycling cylinders on a bottling line, with 5 um filtration guarding the motor vanes and the lubricator carrying the oil mist they rely on.
Is the Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC400C15NW the Right Set?
Here the deciding choice is the filter grade: the W in this code selects the 5 um element over the 40 um default, the right call when the same air feeds spraying equipment, air bearings, sensitive valves or instrumentation. Everything else is the standard configuration: size 400 with a 1/2 in PT port and differential-pressure drain, regulating 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi). If your demand needs a different port, step to GFC300 or GFC600; for a manual drain with a wider 0.05-0.9 MPa (7-130 psi) span, or a check valve, ask for those variants. No gauge is fitted, and G (BSPP) or NPT threads are catalogue options to order.
Flow is published as curves, not a single rating, so ask us to confirm sizing against your application before ordering.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (See datasheet 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-C1 filter regulator on its own.
Airtac B52-GFC Copper-Free Air Source Treatment Component B52-GFC400C15NW FAQ
AirTAC publishes flow for the G-series as curves, not as a single rated figure, so there is no one number we can honestly quote. This size 400 unit with its 1/2 in port serves the upper-middle of the family's flow range. Send us your flow demand and we will confirm the datasheet curves and figures for this exact model on request.
The 40 um grade is the default and suits general plant air for cylinders, valves and blow-off. The 5 um element selected by the W in this code is for finer air quality, for example when the same supply feeds spray equipment, instrumentation or sensitive pneumatic components. If part of your circuit needs fine air and part does not, we can help you split the supply across two sets.
