About the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC40010ASNK
This GAFC40010ASNK is a two-piece F.R.L. combination: the filter and regulator share one body, and a lubricator is mounted on the same T-bracket with quick clamps. Air is cleaned and set to pressure first, then a metered oil mist is added downstream, so oil never travels back through the regulator seat.
The 3/8in port and 1810 g mass put it in the mid-size class, between the 1020 g GAFC300 and the 1810 g GAFC400. It carries a 40 um element, a 100 cc condensate bowl and a 185 cc oil bowl, and the automatic drain clears water without an operator. Working range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), with a 1.0 MPa (145 psi) maximum and 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof 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 GAFC40010ASNK Is Used
Precision machining center
Feed a 3/8in line to a CNC spindle or tool changer where consistent 0.15-0.9 MPa pressure and 40 um filtration protect sensitive valves and actuators.
Assembly station air supply
Power pneumatic screwdrivers and push cylinders on a multi-station assembly line, with the automatic drain reducing maintenance on a busy floor.
Packaging machine header
Supply a wrapping or cartoning machine's air header, where the 185 cc oil bowl keeps lubricators topped up between shifts and the 6000 L/min envelope covers multiple cylinders.
Is the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC40010ASNK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFC400 when 3/8in ports and a 6000 L/min plotted flow envelope at 0.7 MPa inlet suit your line; the smaller GAFC300 offers 3500 L/min at the same inlet pressure. The PC bowl is the standard build, and the automatic drain suits unattended operation. No gauge is supplied, so the 1/4in gauge connection must be fitted if you need to read set pressure. The reverse-flow (reflux) valve is included. If the line must stay oil-free, omit the lubricator and select a plain GAFR filter-regulator instead. Spare units are GAFR400-10 and GAL400-10. With a 1.0 MPa max supply, there is only about 0.1 MPa of headroom above the 0.9 MPa top of the regulated range.
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 100 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 1810 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 GAFR400-10 filter-regulator on that branch instead of the full combination.
Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC40010ASNK 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. The condensate bowl holds 100 cc and the oil bowl 185 cc. Use ISO VG 32 lubricant. The unit weighs 1810 g.
The N in the code after the port means no gauge is supplied. If you need to monitor pressure, add one to the 1/4in gauge connection on the GAFC400 body. The automatic drain and reverse-flow valve are fitted as standard on this version.
