The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC30008LN 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).
Delivering cleaned, regulated and lubricated air for low-pressure pneumatics, this AirTAC GAC30008LN combines a filter, regulator and lubricator on a single L-shape bracket. The 1/4in ported body operates in the 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) range and uses a 40 um element. 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.
Weighing 1300 g, this unit carries a 60 cc condensate bowl and a 98 cc oil reservoir. Because the N follows the port in the ordering code, no pressure gauge is supplied; the body features a 1/8in gauge connection if you need to add one later. The standard semi-auto and manual drain pair is fitted, dumping condensate on pressure drops or on demand.

Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GAF300-08 filter, GAR300-08 regulator, GAL300-08 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 delicate pneumatic pick-and-place arms where a 0.4 MPa ceiling prevents actuator damage during grip and release cycles.
Conditions air for heat-sealing machinery that relies on gentle cylinder pressure to consistently crimp film without crushing the product.
Prepares supply air for low-pressure test fixtures and fluidic transfer pumps, ensuring moisture and grit are removed before the 40 um barrier.
Choose this lower-pressure L type for equipment strictly capped at 0.4 MPa, and remember that if the machine may ever need more, this is the wrong part. The PC bowl is standard, but always confirm material compatibility for aggressive surroundings. Since no gauge is included, the set pressure cannot be read without adding one to the 1/8in connection. If the downstream line must stay oil-free, omit the lubricator and choose a filter-regulator instead. The separate spares are GAF300-08, GAR300-08 and GAL300-08. The catalogue flow curve for the GAC300 is plotted to 3000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet, which is 50% of the GAC400's 6000 L/min envelope. Note that 0.4 MPa is about 44% of the Standard type's 0.9 MPa ceiling.
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). It shares the common maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure. The operating temperature is -5 to 70 C, and the recommended lubricant is ISO VG 32. The drain bowl holds 60 cc, the oil bowl holds 98 cc, and the assembly weighs 1300 g.
The N after the port code means no circular gauge is supplied, so you must install your own on the 1/8in connection to read the setpoint. The L indicates the lower-pressure type, restricting adjustment to a 0.4 MPa ceiling instead of the standard 0.9 MPa, which suits sensitive equipment but prevents high-force output.
