Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC200C08AL
The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC200C08AL 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).

About the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC200C08AL
Delivering cleaned, regulated and lubricated air for compact pneumatics, this AirTAC F.R.L. combination integrates a filter, regulator and lubricator on a single L-shape bracket. The 1/4in port pairs with a 40 um element and a lower pressure type operating range of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi). A circular gauge reading MPa/psi is fitted to the default PT thread, allowing operators to monitor the set pressure directly.
The build routes air through the filter first, then the regulator, adding oil mist last so the internal seat never fouls. Fitted with an automatic drain and a robust metal bowl, the unit holds 25 cc of condensate and 36 cc of oil. Weighing 750 g, the assembly is sized for single actuators rather than main plant headers.

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 GAC200C08AL Is Used
Small Pneumatic Jigs
Feeds single-actuator clamping jigs on benchtop assembly stations where space is tight and low-pressure actuation is required.
Lab Automation
Conditions air for sensitive laboratory pick-and-place mechanisms that operate safely below 0.4 MPa.
Benchtop Tooling
Supplies oil-misted air to small handheld pneumatic grinders or screwdrivers, preventing internal wear during intermittent duty.
Is the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC200C08AL the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose this metal bowl configuration for environments where PC or nylon might not suit the surrounding conditions, keeping in mind the common -5 to 70 C temperature limits apply across all materials. The automatic drain clears the 25 cc condensate bowl without an operator, which is ideal for unattended jigs. If the downstream line must remain completely oil-free, omit the lubricator and select a standalone filter-regulator instead. Replacement parts follow the body and port exactly: GAF200-08, GAR200-08 and GAL200-08.
Stepping up to the GAC300 body increases the oil capacity from 36 cc to 98 cc, extending the service interval significantly. However, the lower pressure type caps the outlet at 0.4 MPa, which is 44% of the Standard type's 0.9 MPa ceiling.
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 GAC200C08AL FAQ
This lower-pressure 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 from -5 to 70 C, uses a 40 um element, weighs 750 g, and features a 25 cc drain bowl with a 36 cc oil bowl. The recommended lubricant is ISO VG 32.
The A indicates an automatic drain that evacuates condensate without manual intervention, while the L designates the lower pressure type with a 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) operating range. If the machine ever requires pressure above 0.4 MPa, this L type is the wrong part for the application.
