About the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC20006ALW
This AirTAC GAFC20006ALW is a two-piece F.R.L. combination: a filter-regulator body that cleans the air and sets its pressure, joined on a T-bracket to a lubricator that adds a metered oil mist last. The 1/8in port and 590 g mass suit it for a small jig or a single actuator where the line is already dry and regulated.
It runs on the lower-pressure band of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) with a 5 um element that traps finer particles than the standard 40 um grade. The automatic drain clears the 25 cc condensate bowl without an operator, while the 36 cc oil bowl holds enough ISO VG 32 for a shift of light cycling. The fitted circular gauge reads MPa and psi on the PT thread.

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 GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC20006ALW Is Used
Precision Fixture Clamping
Feed a single pneumatic clamp on a benchtop assembly fixture. The 5 um element keeps fine debris off the clamp's seal, and the lower pressure range protects a delicate workpiece from over-force.
Lab Air Supply
Supply a small laboratory test rig that needs a stable, low-pressure air feed. The automatic drain keeps the 25 cc bowl from overflowing during unattended overnight runs, and the 5 um element suits sensitive instruments.
Single-Actuator Automation
Run one pneumatic actuator on a compact pick-and-place cell. The two-piece build takes less panel width than a three-body train, and the 590 g mass is easy to mount on a small frame.
Is the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC20006ALW the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFC200 body when a 1/8in port and a 590 g unit fit your panel; the 25 cc drain bowl and 36 cc oil bowl set the service rhythm. The A code specifies the automatic drain, so condensate is expelled without a manual step, and the W code swaps the element to 5 um for finer filtration at the cost of more frequent element changes. The L type limits you to 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), so if the machine may ever need more than 0.4 MPa, pick the standard S type instead. The PT thread carries a circular gauge scaled in MPa and psi, and the PC bowl is the default build; confirm it suits your surroundings, as the catalogue gives no material-specific ratings. Spares are the GAFR200-06 filter-regulator and the GAL200-06 lubricator, both orderable separately. With a 1.0 MPa max supply, you have about 0.6 MPa of headroom above the 0.4 MPa top of the regulated range, so plan the inlet pressure accordingly.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (1/8" 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-regulator 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 25 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 590 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 plain GAFR200-06 filter-regulator on that branch instead of the full combination.
Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC20006ALW FAQ
This F.R.L. combination operates at 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) with a maximum supply pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). The temperature range is -5 to 70 C, and it must not freeze. It has a 25 cc drain bowl, a 36 cc oil bowl, and weighs 590 g. Use ISO VG 32 or equivalent oil in the lubricator.
The W code specifies a 5 um filtering element instead of the standard 40 um. This traps finer particles, which is useful for precision valves or instrument air, but it will clog faster and needs more frequent replacement. The element is part of the GAFR200-06 filter-regulator, which is orderable separately.
