About the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC30008LNW
This AirTAC GAFC30008LNW is a two-piece F.R.L. combination for a 1/4in line: a filter-regulator body that cleans the air and sets pressure, followed by a lubricator that adds a metered oil mist. The lower-pressure regulator tops out at 0.4 MPa (58 psi), and the 5 um element traps finer particles than the standard 40 um grade.
The 60 cc condensate bowl and 98 cc oil bowl set the service rhythm, while the 1020 g mass tells you this unit needs a proper panel mount, not support from the tubing. No gauge is fitted, so the 1/8in gauge connection is where you would add one to read the set pressure.

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 GAFC30008LNW Is Used
Low-Pressure Assembly Tools
Feed a 1/4in line to a pneumatic screwdriver or torque tool that must not exceed 0.4 MPa, protecting delicate fasteners from over-torque while the 5 um element keeps the tool air clean.
Laboratory Air Supply
Supply filtered, regulated air to a lab bench valve or small test fixture where the 0.15-0.4 MPa range matches sensitive instrumentation and the fine element prevents particle contamination.
Paint Spray Booth
Run a low-pressure paint spray gun from this unit, where the 5 um filtration removes moisture and particles that would mar a finish, and the regulated 0.4 MPa ceiling suits typical spray patterns.
Is the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC30008LNW the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFC30008LNW when your 1/4in line needs fine filtration and a low-pressure ceiling. The L type suits delicate circuits that must never see more than 0.4 MPa, but if the machine may ever need higher pressure, step to the standard S type instead. The PC bowl is the default build; the catalogue gives no impact or chemical data, so confirm it suits your surroundings. The 5 um element catches finer debris for precision valves but will need more frequent service than a 40 um element. The semi-auto drain dumps condensate when pressure drops, and the manual drain gives on-demand control. Spares are the GAFR300-08 filter-regulator and GAL300-08 lubricator, both orderable separately. With a 1.0 MPa max supply, you have about 0.6 MPa of headroom above the 0.4 MPa regulated top, 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 GAFC30008LNW FAQ
The GAFC30008LNW operates at 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 works in -5 to 70 C temperatures and needs ISO VG 32 lubricant. The unit has a 60 cc drain bowl and 98 cc oil bowl, weighs 1020 g, and uses a 5 um filter element.
The N in the code after the port means no gauge is supplied. The GAFC300 body has a 1/8in gauge connection, so you can add a circular gauge there later if you need to read the outlet pressure. Without one, you cannot verify the set pressure visually, so plan to fit a gauge if your process requires monitoring.
