About the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008ASNW
Delivering cleaned, pressure-set and oil-misted air for downstream moving parts, the AirTAC GAC20008ASNW is a three-unit F.R.L. combination pairing a filter, regulator and lubricator on a single L-shape bracket. This 1/4in ported body relies on quick mounting clamps, eliminating inter-unit tubing and potential leak paths during commissioning. Air passes through the filter first, then the regulator, ensuring oil mist is added last so it never fouls the regulator seat.
Configured for precision duties, this variant uses a 5 um element to trap far finer particles than the standard 40 um grade, making it ideal for sensitive valves or instrument air, albeit with more frequent element service. It operates within the 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) standard pressure range. Because the code carries an N after the port, no gauge is supplied; the 1/8in gauge connection allows operators to add one later to read the set pressure.

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 GAC20008ASNW Is Used
Micro-Assembly Jigs
Feeds clean, lubricated air to small-bore grippers and precision pick-and-place heads that require 5 um particulate protection to prevent sticking valves.
Laboratory Pneumatics
Conditions supply air for benchtop fluid dispensing robots, utilizing the automatic drain to keep the 25 cc bowl empty during continuous daily test cycles.
Single-Actuator Stations
Regulates pressure for dedicated pneumatic clamps on welding fixtures, ensuring consistent force output without manual condensate intervention.
Is the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008ASNW the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose this 750 g GAC200 class unit for single actuators or small jigs rather than heavy machine headers, as its compact frame needs proper panel mounting rather than tubing support. The automatic drain clears condensate without an operator, a decisive feature for unattended or wet lines, while the 25 cc drain bowl and 36 cc oil bowl dictate frequent maintenance interventions compared to larger bodies. The PC bowl shares the same 1.0 MPa max pressure and -5 to 70 C temperature limits as metal and nylon variants, so confirm compatibility for aggressive surroundings. If the downstream line must stay oil-free, omit the lubricator and choose a filter-regulator instead. Spares follow the body-port suffix exactly: GAF200-08, GAR200-08 and GAL200-08. Stepping up to the GAC300 roughly doubles the flow envelope to 3000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet, whereas this body plots to 1750 L/min, but note that max supply is 1.0 MPa and the Standard type regulates to 0.9 MPa, leaving only about 0.1 MPa of regulation headroom above the top setting.
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 GAC20008ASNW FAQ
This standard type unit regulates from 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) with a max pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). It operates from -5 to 70 C, uses a 25 cc drain bowl and a 36 cc oil bowl, weighs 750 g, and requires ISO VG 32 lubricant.
The N in the ordering code means no gauge is supplied, though a 1/8in connection exists to fit one later so the set pressure can be monitored. The W code specifies a 5 um element, which catches far finer particles than the 40 um standard for sensitive instruments, requiring more frequent element replacement.
