Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008AS
The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008AS is a genuine three-unit F.R.L. combination — a filter, a pressure regulator and a lubricator pre-assembled on one bracket with quick mounting clamps. It has 1/4" ports, a 40 µm filter element and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).

About the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008AS
The GAC20008AS is a compact F.R.L. combination - filter, regulator and lubricator - pre-assembled on one L-shape bracket with quick clamps, so there is no inter-unit tubing to leak and commissioning is a single bracket mount. With a 1/4in port and a 750 g mass, it suits small jigs and single actuators where panel space is tight and the tubing should not carry the unit's weight.
Air passes filter, then regulator, then lubricator, so the oil mist is added last and never fouls the regulator seat. This model regulates 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) with a 40 um element, and the automatic drain clears condensate from the 25 cc bowl without an operator - a real advantage on a line that is not watched continuously.

Figures are the end of the flow curve plotted in the AirTAC catalogue at 0.7 MPa inlet pressure — a sizing envelope for comparing bodies, not a rated flow. Read the catalogue curve for a real duty point. Outlet pressure falls as flow rises, so size a body with headroom above your peak demand.

Where the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008AS Is Used
Small jig clamping
Feed a single pneumatic clamp on a benchtop assembly jig where the 1/4in port and 750 g body mount directly to the fixture frame.
Bench press actuator
Supply a small bench press cylinder with regulated air and controlled lubrication, keeping the compact unit within arm's reach for adjustments.
Lab test rig
Condition air for a single-acting actuator on a lab test rig, where the automatic drain keeps the 25 cc bowl clear during long unattended runs.
Is the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008AS the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAC20008AS when a 1/4in port and a 750 g body fit the machine. The automatic drain (A) removes the need to manually dump the 25 cc condensate bowl, while the standard S type covers 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi). The circular gauge reads MPa/psi on the default PT thread, and the 40 um element is the standard grade. If the line must stay oil-free, omit the lubricator and choose a filter-regulator instead. Spares for this body-port are GAF200-08, GAR200-08 and GAL200-08.
Because the maximum supply is 1.0 MPa and the Standard type tops out at 0.9 MPa, there is only about 0.1 MPa of regulation headroom - plan a supply near 1.0 MPa if you truly need 0.9 MPa out, or set lower.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (1/4" here)
- ✓ Standard 0.9 MPa or lower-pressure 0.4 MPa
- ✓ Bowl material: PC (blank), Metal (C), Nylon (N)
- ✓ Drain: semi-auto + manual, or automatic
- ✓ Element 40 µm or 5 µm
- ✓ Thread & gauge scale (PT / G / NPT)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Install with the airflow arrow: filter first, lubricator last.
- check Keep inlet pressure at or below 1.0 MPa (145 psi).
- check Fill the oil bowl with ISO VG 32 or equivalent only.
- check Drain condensate before the 25 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 750 g unit on its bracket, not on the tubing.
The lubricator adds an oil mist downstream of the regulator. If any part of the line must stay oil-free, use a filter-regulator instead of an F.R.L. combination on that branch.
Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008AS FAQ
The GAC20008AS operates at 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) with a maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). Temperature range is -5 to 70 C, recommended lubricant is ISO VG 32, the drain bowl is 25 cc, the oil bowl is 36 cc, and the unit weighs 750 g.
The automatic drain (A) clears condensate from the 25 cc bowl without operator action, which is useful for lines that are not attended continuously. It replaces the semi-auto and manual drain pair found on models without the A code.
