Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC30008L
The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC30008L 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 GAC30008L
Delivering cleaned, regulated and lubricated air for pneumatic setups, this AirTAC unit combines a filter, regulator and lubricator on a single L-shape bracket. The 1/4in ported body operates at a lower pressure range of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) and uses a 40 um element to capture solid grain. A circular gauge is fitted, reading MPa/psi for the default PT thread, so operators can monitor the set downstream pressure directly.
Air passes through the filter first, then the regulator, with oil mist added last so the internal seat never fouls. The 1300 g assembly carries a 60 cc condensate bowl paired with a 98 cc oil reservoir, requiring manual or semi-auto drainage and periodic refills of ISO VG 32 lubricant. Because the lubricator introduces oil into the line, choose a separate filter-regulator if your downstream tools require an oil-free environment.

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 GAC30008L Is Used
Low-Force Grippers
Feeds small pneumatic grippers handling delicate electronics where a 0.15-0.4 MPa output prevents crushing fragile components.
Lab Automation
Conditions air for benchtop fluid dispensing valves that rely on stable, low-pressure regulation for precise chemical droplet sizing.
Light-Duty Assembly
Prepares supply for low-torque air screwdrivers in consumer electronics assembly lines requiring consistent torque without overdriving fasteners.
Is the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC30008L the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Select this lower-pressure type when your actuators or circuits operate strictly within a 0.15-0.4 MPa band, as it cannot supply higher pressures. The standard PC bowl and semi-auto plus manual drain suit general factory environments where an operator is present to monitor the 60 cc condensate level. If your air demands increase, stepping up to the GAC400 body raises the plotted flow envelope to 6000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet, double the 3000 L/min envelope of this GAC300 unit. Should a component fail, order replacement spares using the GAF300-08, GAR300-08 and GAL300-08 codes. Keep in mind that 0.4 MPa is about 44% of the 0.9 MPa ceiling found on standard units, firmly capping the available output force.
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 60 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 1300 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 GAC30008L FAQ
This lower-pressure F.R.L. combination regulates from 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) with a 1.0 MPa (145 psi) maximum pressure and a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure. It operates between -5 to 70 C, weighs 1300 g, and features a 60 cc drain bowl and a 98 cc oil bowl. The unit uses a 40 um element, a PT thread, and ISO VG 32 lubricant.
The L in the model code designates a lower-pressure regulator type, restricting the adjustable output band to 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) instead of the standard 0.15-0.9 MPa range. You should select this variant only if your downstream machine or actuator specifically requires low-pressure operation and will never need higher force.
