Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC20008ALNW
The AirTAC Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC20008ALNW 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 1/4" ports, a 5 µm filter element and regulates 0.15 - 0.4 MPa (20 - 58 psi).

About the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC20008ALNW
This two-piece F.R.L. combination pairs a filter-regulator with a lubricator on a shared T-bracket, so the air is cleaned, set to pressure, then oil-misted in the last stage. The GAFC200 body takes a 1/4in port and weighs 590 g, with a 25 cc condensate bowl and a separate 36 cc oil bowl that set the service rhythm.
The L-type pressure range is 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), and the 5 um element traps fine particles for sensitive equipment. No gauge is supplied, so the 1/8in gauge connection is the place to add one later if the set pressure must be read on site.

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 GAFC20008ALNW Is Used
Precision valve control
Feed a 5 um-filtered, regulated air supply to a small pneumatic valve manifold on a lab bench or test rig, where fine particles could affect spool movement.
Single jig clamping
Power a compact clamping fixture on an assembly bench, using the automatic drain to keep condensate from reaching the clamp cylinder in humid shop air.
Instrument air prepping
Prepare air for a sensitive pressure sensor or gauge calibration setup, where the lower 0.4 MPa range matches the instrument's input limit and the 5 um element guards the sensing element.
Is the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC20008ALNW the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFC200 body for single actuators or small jigs, where the 1750 L/min plotted curve at 0.7 MPa inlet is ample for the duty. The automatic drain clears condensate without an operator, which suits lines that run unattended, while the PC bowl is the standard build and the 5 um element suits precision valves at the cost of more frequent element service. The L-type range tops out at 0.4 MPa, so if the machine may ever need more pressure, step up to the standard S type instead. The PT thread carries a gauge scale in MPa/psi, and the two units are orderable separately as GAFR200-08 and GAL200-08. Max supply of 1.0 MPa leaves about 0.6 MPa above the 0.4 MPa top of the range, so plan the inlet pressure with that margin in mind.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (1/4" 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 GAFR200-08 filter-regulator on that branch instead of the full combination.
Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC20008ALNW FAQ
The working pressure range is 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), with a max pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). It operates from -5 to 70 C and uses ISO VG 32 oil. The drain bowl holds 25 cc, the oil bowl 36 cc, and the unit weighs 590 g.
The N after the port code means no gauge is supplied, which keeps the unit compact and reduces cost. If you need to read the set pressure, the 1/8in gauge connection on the GAFC200 body accepts a standard AirTAC gauge that you can add separately.
