The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC40015SNWK 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 1/2" ports, a 5 µm filter element and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
Delivering cleaned, regulated and lubricated air for demanding pneumatic setups, this AirTAC F.R.L. combination pre-assembles a filter, regulator and lubricator on a single L-shape bracket. The 1/2in port serves mid-to-high flow circuits, while the 5 um element captures fine particulates before they reach precision valves. It operates within the 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) standard pressure band.
Air routing strictly follows filter, regulator then lubricator, ensuring oil mist is introduced downstream of the regulator seat. Because no gauge is supplied, operators must add one to the 1/4in gauge connection to read the set pressure. The reverse-flow valve is fitted, which the catalogue depicts as a separate pneumatic symbol with details on its own page.

Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GAF400-15 filter, GAR400-15 regulator, GAL400-15 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 multiple pneumatic impact wrenches and actuators on a vehicle production track where consistent pressure and fine 5 um filtration protect tooling.
Conditions air for high-speed case erectors, ensuring the lubricator supplies a steady oil mist to the moving folding arms and vacuum cups.
Prepares supply air for automatic tool change systems, where the 5 um element prevents debris from jamming precision locking mechanisms.
Choose this 2390 g assembly for substantial air preparation duties where panel or frame mounting is required rather than tubing support. The PC bowl pairs with a semi-auto and manual drain, giving operators on-demand condensate clearing alongside automatic dumping during pressure drops. If your downstream line must remain oil-free, omit the lubricator and select a dedicated filter-regulator instead. Replacement spares follow the body and port exactly: GAF400-15, GAR400-15 and GAL400-15. Stepping up to the GAC500 roughly increases the plotted flow envelope from 6000 to 7000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet, a 1.17x ratio.
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 standard type unit regulates from 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) with a maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). It operates between -5 to 70 C, weighs 2390 g, holds 100 cc in the drain bowl and 185 cc in the oil bowl, and uses ISO VG 32 lubricant.
The N in the code means no gauge is supplied; you must install one in the 1/4in gauge connection to monitor the 0.15-0.9 MPa range. The K code indicates a reverse-flow valve is fitted, shown as a separate pneumatic symbol in the catalogue.
