About the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC20008ASNWK
This AirTAC GAFC20008ASNWK is a two-piece F.R.L. combination: a filter-regulator body paired with a lubricator, mounted on a shared T-bracket with quick clamps. The 1/4in port size and 590 g mass make it a compact choice for single-actuator stations, and the 5 um element traps finer particles than the standard 40 um grade.
Air enters the first body where solids and moisture are removed and pressure is set to 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), then the lubricator adds a metered oil mist downstream. Because the filter and regulator share one housing, there is one less inter-unit joint to seal compared with a three-piece train. The automatic drain clears condensate without an operator, and the 25 cc condensate bowl plus 36 cc oil bowl define the service interval.

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 GAFC20008ASNWK Is Used
Precision Jig Actuation
Feed a single pneumatic clamp or positioning jig on a benchtop assembly station, where the 5 um element protects fine metering valves from particle wear.
Compact Packaging Line
Supply a small carton-erecting mechanism or label applicator that needs clean, regulated air and automatic condensate removal in a tight control cabinet.
Instrument Air Feed
Protect a lab-scale pneumatic controller or test fixture that requires finer filtration than standard shop air, with the 5 um element trapping sub-40 um particles.
Is the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC20008ASNWK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose this GAFC20008ASNWK for a 1/4in line where a 5 um element and automatic drain are priorities. The PC bowl is the standard build; confirm it suits your environment, as the catalogue gives no material-specific ratings. The N after the port means no gauge is supplied, so the 1/8in gauge connection is available if you add one later. The K code specifies the reverse-flow valve, which the catalogue shows as a separate pneumatic symbol.
The 5 um element suits precision valves or instrument air but will need more frequent service than the 40 um grade. If your line must stay oil-free, omit the lubricator and choose a plain GAFR200-08 filter-regulator instead. Spares are orderable as GAFR200-08 and GAL200-08. With a 1.0 MPa max supply, there is about 0.1 MPa above the 0.9 MPa top of the regulated range, so plan inlet pressure near 1.0 MPa if you need the full output.
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 GAFC20008ASNWK FAQ
This F.R.L. combination operates at 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) with a 1.0 MPa (145 psi) maximum and 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure. Temperature range is -5 to 70 C, and the recommended lubricant is ISO VG 32. The drain bowl holds 25 cc and the oil bowl 36 cc, with a total weight of 590 g.
The N after the port code indicates no gauge is supplied; the 1/8in gauge connection is present if you add one. The K code specifies the reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted, which the catalogue draws as a separate pneumatic symbol. The automatic drain (A) clears condensate without operator intervention.
