Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC200C08ALK
The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC200C08ALK 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 GAC200C08ALK
Delivering cleaned, regulated and oil-misted air for downstream pneumatics, the AirTAC GAC200C08ALK is a three-unit F.R.L. combination comprising a filter, regulator and lubricator pre-plumbed on a single L-shape bracket. The 1/4in port pairs with a 40 um element, while the lower-pressure type restricts the operating range to 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi). A circular gauge reading MPa/psi is fitted for the default PT thread.
The metal bowl equips this 750 g assembly, and an automatic drain actively clears the 25 cc condensate bowl without operator intervention. Air passes through the filter, then the regulator, and finally the lubricator, ensuring oil mist is added downstream so the regulator seat never fouls. This specific configuration includes a reverse-flow (reflux) valve, which the catalogue shows as a separate pneumatic symbol with details on its own page.

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 GAC200C08ALK Is Used
Small Assembly Jigs
Feeds single-actuator pick-and-place jigs where a 1/4in port and a 0.4 MPa ceiling match the low-force gripping requirements perfectly.
Benchtop Tooling
Conditions air for benchtop pneumatic presses, using the metal bowl and automatic drain to handle moist shop air without manual intervention.
Lab Automation
Supplies clean, lubricated air to low-pressure lab automation equipment, relying on the 40 um element to protect sensitive valves.
Is the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC200C08ALK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose this compact body for single actuators or small jigs, stepping up to the GAC300 if a higher duty point is needed, as the GAC200 flow curve is plotted to 1750 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet compared to 3000 L/min for the larger frame. The metal bowl suits harsher environments where PC or nylon might be unsuitable, and the automatic drain is decisive for unattended or wet lines. Because the lubricator introduces oil downstream, select a separate filter-regulator if the line must remain strictly oil-free. Replacement spares share the same body and port suffix: GAF200-08, GAR200-08 and GAL200-08. Note that the lower-pressure type tops out 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 GAC200C08ALK FAQ
This lower-pressure unit operates at 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) with a max pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). It has a 1/4in port, a 40 um element, a 25 cc drain bowl, a 36 cc oil bowl, and weighs 750 g. The temperature range is -5 to 70 C, and the recommended lubricant is ISO VG 32.
The K indicates that a reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted. The catalogue draws this as a separate pneumatic symbol with details on its own page, representing an ordering difference rather than a standard feature on all units.
