The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC400N10ASK 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 3/8" ports, a 40 µm filter element and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
Delivering cleaned, regulated and lubricated air for pneumatic machinery, this AirTAC unit integrates a filter, regulator and lubricator on a single L-shape bracket. The 3/8in port pairs with a standard pressure range of 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) and a 40 um element. Because the lubricator sits last in the sequence, oil mist is introduced downstream of the regulator seat, preventing fouling of the internal valve.
Weighing 2390 g, this body size requires a solid panel or frame mount rather than tubing support. The nylon bowl holds 100 cc of condensate and 185 cc of oil, setting the maintenance interval. An automatic drain clears liquid without an operator, while the fitted reverse-flow valve appears as a distinct pneumatic symbol in the catalogue. The standard PT thread pairs with a circular gauge reading MPa/psi.

Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GAF400-10 filter, GAR400-10 regulator, GAL400-10 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 multi-station robotic arms and pneumatic clamps requiring steady 0.7 MPa pressure and continuous oil mist for high-cycle moving parts.
Prepares air for vertical and horizontal sealing cylinders, ensuring the 40 um element stops grit from scoring barrel walls during fast repetitive motion.
Supplies clean, regulated air to high-speed pneumatic pushers where the automatic drain handles moisture from heavy duty cycles without manual intervention.
Choose this configuration for unattended lines where the automatic drain prevents condensate buildup in the 100 cc bowl. The nylon bowl material suits standard environments, though compatibility should be verified for aggressive surroundings. A 40 um element balances particle trapping with service frequency. If the downstream process requires strictly dry, oil-free air, omit the lubricator and select a separate filter-regulator instead. Replacement parts share the 400-10 suffix: order GAF400-10, GAR400-10 and GAL400-10 individually.
The catalogue flow curve for the GAC400 is plotted to 6000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet, exactly double the 3000 L/min envelope of the GAC300, giving clear sizing headroom. Furthermore, the 1.5 MPa proof pressure provides a 1.5x burst-test margin above the 1.0 MPa maximum, but this does not permit running above the limit.
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.
The standard type operates at 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) with a max pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure. Temperature ranges from -5 to 70 C. It features a 100 cc drain bowl, a 185 cc oil bowl, a 40 um element, and weighs 2390 g. The recommended lubricant is ISO VG 32.
The K indicates a reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted. The catalogue displays this as a separate pneumatic symbol with details on its own page. This model also includes a circular gauge reading MPa/psi for the default PT thread.
