The AirTAC Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC300N08LNK 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 40 µm filter element and regulates 0.15 - 0.4 MPa (20 - 58 psi).
This AirTAC GAFC300N08LNK is a two-piece F.R.L. combination: the filter and regulator share one body, and the lubricator is mounted on the same bracket. It handles a 1/4in port and operates in the lower pressure band of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), with a 40 um element filtering the air before regulation.
The nylon bowl holds 60 cc of condensate and the oil bowl 98 cc, so the 1020 g unit needs a solid panel mount rather than tubing support. A reverse-flow valve is fitted, and the gauge connection is 1/8in since no gauge is supplied with this model.

Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GAFR300-08 filter & regulator, GAL300-08 lubricator — both share this body and port. A GAFC has two units, not three: the filter and the regulator are one body.
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.

Set a lathe's air chuck to 0.3 MPa (43 psi) with the lower pressure range, giving fine adjustment for delicate workholding without over-pressurizing the part.
Feed a small pneumatic screwdriver on an assembly bench with filtered, regulated air and a metered oil mist, keeping the tool running smoothly on repetitive fastening tasks.
Supply a leak-test fixture that needs a gentle 0.2 MPa (29 psi) test pressure, using the 1/4in port to connect to the rig's manifold and the 40 um element to protect the test valve.
Choose this GAFC300N08LNK when your circuit needs regulated air at 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi) and a 1/4in port. The nylon bowl is a build choice, but the common specification of 1.0 MPa max and -5 to 70 C applies regardless, so confirm the material suits your environment. The semi-auto drain dumps on pressure drop while the manual drain works on demand, and the 40 um element handles standard shop air. For oil-free lines, omit the lubricator and select a plain GAFR300-08 filter-regulator instead. Spares are orderable as GAFR300-08 and GAL300-08. The 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.6 MPa above the 0.4 MPa top of the range.
Quick checklist
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.
The GAFC300N08LNK is a lower-pressure F.R.L. combination with a working range of 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi). Maximum pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi). It operates from -5 to 70 C and uses ISO VG 32 lubricant. The drain bowl holds 60 cc, the oil bowl 98 cc, and the unit weighs 1020 g.
The N after the port code means no gauge is supplied with this unit. The gauge connection on the GAFC300 body is 1/8in, so you can add a compatible gauge later if you need to read the set pressure directly. The reverse-flow valve is fitted as indicated by the K code.
