The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008LK 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 - 0.4 MPa (20 - 58 psi).
Delivering cleaned, regulated and lubricated air for pneumatic setups, this AirTAC F.R.L. combination pre-assembles a filter, regulator and lubricator on a single L-shape bracket with quick mounting clamps. The 1/4in port serves the compact 750 g GAC200 body, which pairs a 25 cc condensate bowl with a 36 cc oil reservoir. This specific unit is configured for low-pressure duties, operating within a 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) range, and uses a standard 40 um element to trap solid particulate.
Air passes through the filter, then the regulator, and finally the lubricator, ensuring oil mist is introduced downstream so the regulator seat never fouls. A circular gauge reading MPa/psi is fitted for the default PT thread, allowing operators to monitor the set pressure directly. Additionally, the reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted, appearing as a distinct pneumatic symbol in the catalogue. If a downstream process requires air without oil mist, a dedicated filter-regulator should be selected instead of this assembly.

Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GAF200-08 filter, GAR200-08 regulator, GAL200-08 lubricator — all three share this body and port.
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.

Feeds low-pressure air to delicate benchtop jigs and clamping fixtures where a 1/4in port and 0.4 MPa ceiling prevent actuator damage.
Conditions air for low-friction fabric guiding cylinders that rely on a steady, lower-pressure supply and fine oil mist for continuous movement.
Prepares air for single-axis laboratory handling robots, using the 40 um filter and fitted gauge to maintain stable, visible pressure.
Choosing this model means accepting the lower-pressure type ceiling, as 0.4 MPa is about 44% of the standard 0.9 MPa maximum, making it the wrong part if the machine might ever need higher force. The semi-auto and manual drain pair is fitted, dumping condensate on pressure drops or on demand, while the 40 um element suits general plant air rather than precision instrument protection. For maintenance, the assembly accepts its own AirTAC GAF200-08, GAR200-08 and GAL200-08 replacement units. Stepping up to the GAC300 body increases the plotted flow envelope from 1750 to 3000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet, but this compact 750 g unit is ideal for single actuators.
Quick checklist
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.
This lower-pressure type unit regulates from 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), with a maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). It operates between -5 to 70 C, weighs 750 g, and features a 25 cc drain bowl alongside a 36 cc oil bowl. The recommended lubricant is ISO VG 32.
The K indicates that a reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted to this assembly. The catalogue shows this component as a separate pneumatic symbol with details on its own page, representing an ordering difference for this specific unit.
