Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008S
The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008S 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 GAC20008S
Supplying clean, regulated and lubricated air for a single actuator, the AirTAC GAC20008S is a complete F.R.L. combination pre-assembled on a single L-shape bracket. A 1/4in port feeds air through a 40 um filter, a pressure regulator and a lubricator in that exact sequence, ensuring the regulator seat stays clean because oil mist is added downstream. Weighing 750 g, this compact unit is designed for panel mounting rather than support from tubing alone.
Operating at 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), the standard type pairs a PC bowl with a semi-auto and manual drain combination. A circular gauge is fitted out of the box, reading MPa/psi to match the default PT thread. The 25 cc condensate bowl and 36 cc oil capacity dictate a frequent maintenance routine compared to larger bodies, keeping this unit suited for light-duty jigs.

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 GAC20008S Is Used
Small Pneumatic Jigs
Feeds filtered and lubricated air to single-actuator clamping jigs on electronics assembly benches.
Benchtop Tooling
Conditions air for light-duty handheld grinders and screwdrivers where a 1/4in port is standard.
Lab Automation
Regulates pressure for small test fixtures requiring stable 0.15-0.9 MPa downstream pressure.
Is the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008S the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose this GAC200 size class when feeding a small pneumatic jig or individual cylinder, stepping up to the GAC300 if your line requires the 3000 L/min flow envelope instead of the 1750 L/min plotted curve at 0.7 MPa inlet. The semi-auto drain dumps condensate on every pressure drop, while the manual option allows on-demand emptying of the 25 cc bowl. If your downstream components require instrument-quality air, remember that this unit adds oil mist; select a separate filter-regulator if the line must remain oil-free. Replacement spares share the same body-port suffix: GAF200-08, GAR200-08 and GAL200-08.
Because the maximum supply is 1.0 MPa and the standard type regulates to 0.9 MPa, there is only about 0.1 MPa of headroom above the top setting, so plan a supply near 1.0 MPa if you truly need 0.9 MPa out.
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 GAC20008S FAQ
The standard type operates at 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) with a max pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure. It functions 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.
This model ships with both a semi-auto and manual drain fitted to the PC bowl, and includes a circular gauge reading MPa/psi to match the PT thread.
