Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008SWK
The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008SWK 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 5 µm filter element and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).

About the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008SWK
Delivering cleaned, pressure-set and oil-misted air for a single actuator or small jig, this AirTAC F.R.L. combination integrates a filter, regulator and lubricator on a single L-shape bracket. The 1/4in ported body operates at 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) and uses a 5 um element to trap fine particles before they reach precision valves. A circular gauge reading MPa/psi is fitted for the default PT thread.
Air passes through the filter first, then the regulator, and finally the lubricator, ensuring oil mist is added downstream so the regulator seat never fouls. This 750 g assembly carries a reverse-flow (reflux) valve, shown as a separate pneumatic symbol in the catalogue, and uses a PC bowl with a 25 cc condensate capacity. If your downstream line must remain strictly oil-free, omit the lubricator and choose a filter-regulator instead.

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 GAC20008SWK Is Used
Precision Valve Lines
Feeds sensitive directional control valves on a small marking machine using the 5 um element to prevent spool sticking.
Benchtop Jig Boring
Conditions air for a single actuator on a benchtop jig, adding the exact oil mist needed for smooth pneumatic cylinder cycling.
Lab Pneumatic Stations
Regulates pressure for laboratory test fixtures, relying on the 1/4in port and compact 750 g body to fit tight enclosures.
Is the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC20008SWK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
This 1/4in model uses a 5 um element for instrument air or sensitive pneumatics, requiring more frequent element service than the standard 40 um grade. The semi-auto and manual drain pair is fitted, dumping condensate on pressure drops or on demand, while the fitted gauge lets operators verify the set pressure directly. For higher flow duties, stepping up to the GAC300 body shifts the plotted flow envelope from 1750 L/min to 3000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet. Replacement spares share the same 200-08 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 GAC20008SWK 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 proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). It runs from -5 to 70 C, weighs 750 g, has a 25 cc drain bowl and a 36 cc oil bowl, and uses ISO VG 32 lubricant.
The K signifies that a reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted, which the catalogue draws as a separate pneumatic symbol with details on its own page. This PC bowl model also includes a semi-auto and manual drain pair rather than an automatic one.
