Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC400N10LWK
The AirTAC Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC400N10LWK 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 - 0.4 MPa (20 - 58 psi).

About the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC400N10LWK
Delivering cleaned, regulated and lubricated air for downstream pneumatics, this AirTAC F.R.L. combination integrates a filter, regulator and lubricator on a single L-shape bracket. The nylon bowl equips this 3/8in ported unit, which operates within a lower pressure range of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) and utilizes a 5 um element to capture fine particulates for sensitive valve protection.
Air passes through the filter first, then the regulator, ensuring the oil mist introduced by the lubricator never fouls the regulator seat. Weighing 2390 g, this assembly relies on a solid panel mount rather than tubing support. The reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted, appearing as a separate pneumatic symbol in the catalogue.

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 GAC400N10LWK Is Used
Lab Pneumatic Stations
Feeds low-pressure air to sensitive laboratory test fixtures and gauging equipment requiring a stable 0.4 MPa maximum supply.
Micro-Actuator Lines
Conditions air for small-bore cylinders in electronics assembly, where the 5 um element protects tiny internal seals from abrasive grit.
Light-End Sealers
Regulates downstream flow for thin-film packaging machines that rely on gentle, low-pressure clamping forces to avoid crushing product.
Is the Airtac GAC F.R.L. Unit GAC400N10LWK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
This model suits applications requiring strict low-pressure control and fine filtration, contrasting with the 0.15-0.9 MPa standard type. The 5 um element demands more frequent service than the 40 um default, a necessary trade-off for precision instrumentation. The fitted circular gauge reads MPa/psi for the default PT thread, allowing direct pressure verification. If the downstream line must remain free of oil, omit the lubricator and choose a filter-regulator instead. Replacement spares share the 400-10 suffix: GAF400-10, GAR400-10 and GAL400-10. Stepping up from the GAC300 roughly doubles the sizing envelope, as the catalogue flow curve for this body is plotted to 6000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet versus 3000 L/min on the smaller neighbour. Because the L type tops out at 0.4 MPa, it provides only 44% of the standard 0.9 MPa ceiling.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (3/8" 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 100 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 2390 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 GAC400N10LWK FAQ
This lower-pressure type unit regulates from 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi). It shares a 1.0 MPa (145 psi) max pressure and a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure across the range. Operating temperature is -5 to 70 C. The drain bowl holds 100 cc, the oil bowl holds 185 cc, and the assembly weighs 2390 g. Use ISO VG 32 or equivalent lubricant.
The K indicates a reverse-flow (reflux) valve is attached. The catalogue lists this as a separate pneumatic symbol with details on its own page, and no functional description is provided in the main specifications. This unit also features a semi-auto and manual drain pair.
