The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC200C08ALNK 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).
Configured with a 1/4in port, this AirTAC unit delivers cleaned, regulated and oil-misted air by combining a filter, regulator and lubricator on a single L-shape bracket. The metal bowl equips this 750 g assembly, and the automatic drain actively clears the 25 cc condensate sump without operator input. As a lower-pressure type, it regulates between 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) and uses a 40 um element.
Because no gauge is supplied, the set pressure cannot be read without adding one to the 1/8in gauge connection. The reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted, which the catalogue shows as a separate pneumatic symbol with details on its own page. Air passes the filter, then the regulator, and finally the lubricator, ensuring oil mist is added downstream so the regulator seat never fouls.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC GAC catalogue (pages 216-217). Air must not freeze in the unit. No gauge is supplied with this model — the gauge connection on a GAC200 is 1/8" if you add one.

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 small clamping cylinders on an electronics assembly jig where delicate handling requires a strictly limited 0.4 MPa output.
Conditions air for single-actuator test fixtures, adding necessary oil mist while the automatic drain handles condensate removal autonomously.
Supplies metered, lubricated air to benchtop grinders in a workshop, protecting internal vanes from wear via downstream oil injection.
This assembly uses a metal bowl and an automatic drain, making it suitable for wet lines where unattended condensate removal is preferred over the standard semi-auto and manual pair. The lower-pressure type tops out at 0.4 MPa, so if the machine may ever need more, this is the wrong part. The 40 um element is standard, and the PT thread sets the gauge scale to MPa/psi if a gauge is added later. The three units are separately orderable as GAF200-08, GAR200-08 and GAL200-08, so a damaged bowl does not mean replacing the whole assembly. The 0.4 MPa ceiling is 44% of the Standard type's 0.9 MPa maximum, quantifying exactly what the buyer gives up when choosing this L type.
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 unit regulates from 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 operates from -5 to 70 C, weighs 750 g, has a 25 cc drain bowl, a 36 cc oil bowl, and uses ISO VG 32 lubricant.
The N in the model code means no gauge is supplied from the factory. You can add a circular gauge to the 1/8in connection on the body, which will read in MPa/psi for the default PT thread, allowing operators to monitor the downstream setpoint.
