About the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC40010SNWK
The GAFC40010SNWK is a two-piece F.R.L. combination: a filter-regulator body paired with a lubricator, mounted on a T-bracket with quick clamps. Air enters the 3/8" port, gets filtered and regulated in the first body, then the lubricator adds a controlled oil mist last. This unit operates in the standard 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) range and uses a 5 um element for finer filtration.
With a 1810 g mass and 100 cc condensate plus 185 cc oil bowls, this size class suits machines needing a stable air supply with fewer refill stops. The semi-auto drain dumps condensate on pressure drops, while the manual drain works on demand. No gauge is fitted, so the 1/4" gauge connection is available if you add one later.

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 GAFC40010SNWK Is Used
Precision valve control
Feed a bank of solenoid valves on a pick-and-place machine where the 5 um element keeps fine particles away from spool surfaces and the regulated 0.9 MPa top holds consistent actuation.
Assembly line tooling
Power pneumatic screwdrivers on a multi-station assembly line, where the 185 cc oil bowl keeps tool lubrication steady between shifts and the 100 cc drain bowl handles condensate from humid plant air.
Test bench air supply
Supply a laboratory test bench checking cylinder seals, where the 5 um element protects sensitive test fixtures and the semi-auto drain clears moisture without interrupting long test cycles.
Is the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC40010SNWK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose the GAFC40010SNWK when a 3/8" port and the 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) standard range fit your circuit. The 5 um element traps finer particles than the standard 40 um, which helps precision valves but requires more frequent element service. The PC bowl is the default build; confirm it suits your environment since the catalogue gives no material-specific ratings. The semi-auto and manual drains are both fitted, and the reverse-flow (reflux) valve is included as an ordering difference. Spare parts are the GAFR400-10 filter-regulator and GAL400-10 lubricator, both orderable separately. Since no gauge is supplied, the 1/4" connection allows a field-installed gauge. The 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.1 MPa above the 0.9 MPa top of the range, so plan your inlet pressure accordingly.
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 GAFC40010SNWK FAQ
The GAFC40010SNWK operates at 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) with a max pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). Temperature range is -5 to 70 C. It has a 100 cc drain bowl and 185 cc oil bowl, weighs 1810 g, and uses ISO VG 32 oil. The 5 um element filters the air before it reaches the regulator.
The N in the code means no gauge is supplied. The GAFC400 body has a 1/4" gauge connection, so you can add a field-installed gauge to read the set pressure. Without one, the regulated pressure cannot be read directly on the unit.
