The AirTAC Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC20006SW is a genuine two-piece F.R.L. combination — a GA-series filter & regulator and a lubricator pre-assembled on one T-shape bracket with quick mounting clamps. It has 1/8" ports, a 5 µm filter element and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
This GAFC20006SW is an F.R.L. combination that pairs a filter-regulator with a lubricator on a single T-bracket. The 1/8in port size and 590 g mass place it in the smallest GAFC class, suited to a single actuator or a small jig. Air enters the first body where the 5 um element traps fine particles and the regulator sets pressure to 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi); the lubricator then adds a metered oil mist downstream.
The 25 cc condensate bowl and 36 cc oil bowl are the service interval drivers, so a compact machine with light duty cycles will need more frequent attention than a larger unit. The circular gauge reads MPa and psi on the default PT thread. With a 1.0 MPa (145 psi) maximum supply, there is about 0.1 MPa of headroom above the 0.9 MPa top of the regulated band, so plan the inlet pressure carefully if you intend to run near the upper limit.

Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GAFR200-06 filter & regulator, GAL200-06 lubricator — both share this body and port. A GAFC has two units, not three: the filter and the regulator are one body.
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.

Feed a single pneumatic clamp on a benchtop assembly jig with clean, regulated air. The 5 um element protects the clamp's pilot valve from fine abrasive particles that would otherwise cause premature wear.
Supply a small lab instrument that needs oil-misted air for actuation. The compact 1/8in port and 590 g mass fit neatly into a crowded bench setup without requiring heavy structural support.
Operate one small paint-spray trigger cylinder on a short production line. The semi-auto drain clears condensate each time the line stops, and the 36 cc oil bowl keeps the actuator lubricated through a full shift.
Choose the GAFC200 body when your air prep point serves one small cylinder, a compact valve manifold, or a bench fixture. The 1/8in port matches short, low-flow runs; step up to the GAFC300 if you need more capacity, as its catalogue flow curve is plotted to 3500 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet versus 1750 L/min here. The PC bowl is the standard build, and the shared specification of 1.0 MPa max and -5 to 70 C applies regardless of material, so confirm the plastic suits your environment. The 5 um element gives finer filtration than the standard 40 um grade, which protects precision valves but will load faster and need more frequent replacement. Both a semi-auto drain (dumps on pressure drop) and a manual drain are fitted, giving you a choice between automatic purging and on-demand operation. The circular gauge is supplied and reads MPa/psi. Spare parts are orderable as GAFR200-06 and GAL200-06, so a clogged element does not force a whole new assembly. The 1.0 MPa max supply sits just 0.1 MPa above the 0.9 MPa top of the regulated band, so keep inlet pressure near maximum if you need the full output range.
Quick checklist
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.
The GAFC20006SW operates on air with a standard pressure range of 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi). Maximum supply pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and proof pressure is 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 and a 36 cc oil bowl, weighs 590 g, and uses ISO VG 32 or equivalent lubricant. The 5 um element is fitted.
The W code specifies a 5 um element for finer filtration. This traps smaller particles that could score precision spool valves or instrument orifices. The trade-off is that the element loads faster, so it will need more frequent inspection and replacement than a 40 um element in the same service.
