About the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC300C10ALWK
This AirTAC GAFC300C10ALWK is a two-piece F.R.L. combination: a filter-regulator body paired with a lubricator on a shared T-bracket. The 3/8in port and 1020 g mass suit it for a compact machine station where space is limited. It regulates to a lower 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) band, with a 5 um element trapping fine particles for sensitive equipment.
The metal bowl holds 60 cc of condensate and the oil bowl 98 cc, so service intervals are practical for a production line. The automatic drain clears water without an operator, and the fitted circular gauge reads in MPa/psi. A reverse-flow valve is included, and the lubricator adds oil mist downstream of the regulator, keeping the valve seat dry.

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 GAFC300C10ALWK Is Used
Precision Assembly
Feed a pneumatic press or a small indexing table that needs a stable 0.3 MPa supply, with the 5 um element protecting fine metering valves from particle wear.
Machine Tool Lubrication
Supply a single spindle or a tool changer with filtered, regulated air and a metered oil mist, keeping the way lube system topped up automatically.
Test Rig Air Supply
Run a benchtop leak tester or a calibration fixture where the lower pressure range prevents over-pressuring sensitive reference components.
Is the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC300C10ALWK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFC300 body for 3/8in piping where the GAFC200's 1/4in port is too small; the flow curve plots to 3500 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet, which is double the GAFC200's envelope. The metal bowl is specified here - confirm it suits your environment, as the -5 to 70 C rating is shared across all bowl materials. The automatic drain (A) is for unattended lines, while the lower-pressure type (L) tops out at 0.4 MPa, so verify your actuators never need more. The 5 um element filters finer than the standard 40 um but will need more frequent service. The PT thread carries a MPa/psi gauge scale, and the K code adds the reverse-flow valve. Spare parts are GAFR300-10 and GAL300-10, orderable separately. With a 1.0 MPa max supply, you have about 0.6 MPa of headroom above the 0.4 MPa regulated ceiling.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (3/8" 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 GAFR300-10 filter-regulator on that branch instead of the full combination.
Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC300C10ALWK FAQ
This unit operates from 0.15 to 0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) with a maximum supply of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). The temperature range is -5 to 70 C. It has a 60 cc drain bowl and a 98 cc oil bowl, weighs 1020 g, and uses ISO VG 32 or equivalent lubricant.
The 'L' code sets the regulation band to 0.15-0.4 MPa, which suits delicate circuits that must not see higher pressure. The 'C' code specifies a metal bowl; the catalogue does not rate it as stronger, so confirm it fits your environment. The 'K' code adds a reverse-flow valve, which the catalogue shows as a separate symbol.
