About the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC30008ALNK
This GAFC30008ALNK 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 and 1020 g mass place it in the mid-size class, suited for a single machine station or a small assembly bench.
Air enters the first body where the 40 um element removes solids and moisture, then the regulator sets pressure to the lower range of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi). The lubricator adds a metered oil mist last, downstream of the regulator seat. With no gauge supplied, the 1/8in gauge connection allows adding one later if the setpoint must be read directly.

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 GAFC30008ALNK Is Used
Precision pressure setting
Set a delicate clamping pressure on a fixture that must not exceed 0.4 MPa, using the lower-range regulator for finer adjustment.
Compact machine station
Feed a single pneumatic actuator on a small assembly machine where the 1/4in port matches the existing tubing and the 1020 g unit mounts easily.
Maintenance bench
Supply a workshop air tool that needs lubrication and a limited pressure of 0.4 MPa, with the automatic drain reducing daily checks.
Is the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC30008ALNK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFC300 body for 1/4in porting with a 60 cc condensate bowl and 98 cc oil bowl. The automatic drain clears water without an operator, which suits intermittently used lines. The L type caps at 0.4 MPa, so confirm the downstream circuit never needs more than that. The PC bowl is the standard build; the reflux valve is fitted per the K code. Spare units are GAFR300-08 and GAL300-08, both orderable separately.
For a lower-pressure regulator, the 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.6 MPa above the 0.4 MPa top of the range, so plan the inlet pressure accordingly.
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 60 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 1020 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 GAFR300-08 filter-regulator on that branch instead of the full combination.
Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC30008ALNK 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. The drain bowl holds 60 cc and the oil bowl 98 cc. Recommended lubricant is ISO VG 32. The unit weighs 1020 g.
The N after the port code means no gauge is supplied. The gauge connection on the GAFC300 body is 1/8in, so a gauge can be added later if you need to read the set pressure directly. The unit still regulates to the lower range of 0.15-0.4 MPa.
