About the Airtac BC Series Air Treatment Combination (Filter Regulator Lubricator) BC2000A1W
BC2000A1W stacks three options onto the B-line BC2000: A for the automatic drain of the 40 cc bowl, 1 for an MPa-scaled gauge, and W for the 5 um fine element in place of the standard 40 um. Finer filtration ahead of the BR2000C regulator and BL2000C lubricator suits circuits with sensitive pilot valves and instrumentation on PT1/4 ports.
Regulating range stays 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20 to 130 psi) with a 1.0 MPa (145 psi) maximum and 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, running from -5 to +70 C with no freezing. Keep the 60 cc lubricator topped up with ISO VG32 turbine oil; confirm element service details from the datasheet.

How to choose
Pick BC2000A1W over BC2000A1 when the 40 um standard element is too coarse for the downstream components - W is the only route to the 5 um element in the BC2000 size. Drain and gauge options match its siblings: BC20004 is the manual-drain version with a kgf/cm2 and psi dial, while BC2000A1 keeps the auto drain and MPa gauge with the 40 um element. For G or NPT threads order the G or T suffix instead of PT; BC3000 and BC4000 cover PT3/8 and PT1/2 flow.
Applications
Precision valve and pilot supply
The 5 um element cleans air feeding pilot-operated valves and small-bore actuators that suffer from particles the standard 40 um stage lets through.
Lab and test benches
Instrument air for rigs and gauges, with the MPa dial on the BR2000C regulator allowing repeatable low-end settings from 0.15 MPa.
Humid-plant automation lines
Automatic drain plus fine filtration on PT1/4 feed lines in damp workshops, so the 40 cc bowl clears itself between production cycles.
FAQ
What are the key figures of the AirTAC BC2000A1W?
BC2000-size FRL on PT1/4: BF2000C filter with 5 um W element, BR2000C regulator, BL2000C lubricator with 60 cc capacity, 40 cc drain bowl with A automatic drain, MPa gauge (scale 1). Regulating range 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20 to 130 psi), max 1.0 MPa (145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), -5 to +70 C, fluid air.
How does the W element change this set versus BC2000A1?
Only the filtration grade moves: W fits a 5 um element instead of the standard 40 um, improving particle removal for sensitive equipment. Ports (PT1/4), automatic drain, MPa gauge and all pressure and temperature limits stay the same; verify element change intervals on the datasheet.
