The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC400N10ASNW 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 5 µm filter element and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
Delivering cleaned, regulated and lubricated air for mid-size pneumatics, this AirTAC GAC400N10ASNW F.R.L. combination integrates a filter, regulator and lubricator on a single L-shape bracket. The 3/8in port pairs with a 5 um element to trap fine particles before they reach precision valves. Because the lubricator sits last in the sequence, oil mist enters the downstream line without fouling the regulator seat. The 2390 g assembly uses a nylon bowl and an automatic drain to clear condensate without an operator.
Operating at a standard pressure range of 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), the unit handles a maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). No gauge is supplied, but a 1/4in gauge connection allows a pressure indicator to be added later. The 100 cc condensate bowl and 185 cc oil reservoir dictate the maintenance rhythm, while the ambient temperature spans -5 to 70 C using ISO VG 32 lubricant.

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 GAC400 is 1/4" if you add one.

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 precision actuators on a machining center where the 5 um element protects sensitive tool-changer valves from fine particulate.
Conditions air for a continuous motion pouch sealer, relying on the automatic drain to handle condensate during long production runs.
Supplies clean, regulated air to analytical instrument actuators, with the nylon bowl offering a visible check on condensate levels.
Choose this 3/8in body for duties requiring finer filtration than the standard 40 um grade, as the W code specifies a 5 um element for instrument air or sensitive pneumatics. The nylon bowl saves weight compared to metal, and the A code specifies an automatic drain that empties the 100 cc bowl without manual intervention. Since the N after the port means no gauge is supplied, the set pressure cannot be read unless an indicator is fitted to the 1/4in connection. If the downstream line must remain oil-free, omit the lubricator and choose a filter-regulator instead. Spares follow the GAF400-10, GAR400-10 and GAL400-10 part numbers, ensuring a clogged element does not require replacing the whole assembly. Stepping up from the GAC300 increases the plotted flow envelope from 3000 to 6000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet, a 2x jump in sizing capacity.
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 unit operates at 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 features a 100 cc drain bowl and a 185 cc oil bowl, weighs 2390 g, and functions in temperatures from -5 to 70 C using ISO VG 32 lubricant.
No, the N in the option string indicates no gauge is supplied. To monitor the outlet pressure, you must install a separate gauge into the 1/4in gauge connection on the regulator body.
