About the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC400N10ALNWK
This GAFC400 F.R.L. combination pairs a filter-regulator body with a lubricator on a shared T-bracket, so the air is cleaned, set to pressure, and then oil-misted in one compact two-piece train. The 3/8in port and 1810 g weight place it in the mid-size class, suited to feeding a small machine header or a few actuators from one point.
The lower-pressure regulator is set for 0.15-0.4 MPa (20-58 psi), and the 5 um element traps finer particles than the standard 40 um grade. The nylon bowl holds 100 cc of condensate, the oil bowl 185 cc, and the automatic drain clears water without an operator. With no gauge fitted, the 1/4in gauge connection is left for a later add-on if needed.

Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GAFR400-10 filter & regulator, GAL400-10 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.

Where the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC400N10ALNWK Is Used
Precision Valve Control
Feed a bank of small solenoid valves on a packaging machine with 5 um filtered air, regulated to a stable 0.3 MPa for consistent actuator response.
Machine Header Supply
Mount on a compact assembly station header to lubricate a few pneumatic cylinders, with the automatic drain handling condensate from a humid shop line.
Instrument Air Feed
Supply a lab instrument or test rig that needs fine filtration and a low, precise pressure setting, with the oil mist added downstream for any pneumatic components.
Is the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC400N10ALNWK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose this GAFC400N10ALNWK when your line needs fine filtration at a modest pressure ceiling. The 5 um element suits precision valves or instrument air, while the automatic drain is a real advantage on wet or unattended lines. The nylon bowl is a build choice; the catalogue lists the same 1.0 MPa max and -5 to 70 C range for all bowl materials, so confirm it fits your surroundings. The reverse-flow (reflux) valve is fitted, and the PT thread carries the default MPa/psi gauge scale if you add a gauge later.
The two units are orderable separately as the GAFR400-10 filter & regulator and the GAL400-10 lubricator, so a clogged element or damaged bowl does not force a full replacement. For lines that must stay oil-free, omit the lubricator and choose a plain GAFR filter-regulator instead. 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.6 MPa above the 0.4 MPa top of the 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 GAFC400N10ALNWK FAQ
The pressure range is 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 operates from -5 to 70 C and uses ISO VG 32 oil. The drain bowl holds 100 cc, the oil bowl 185 cc, and the unit weighs 1810 g.
The N after the port code means no gauge is supplied, so you cannot read the set pressure without adding one. The gauge connection on the GAFC400 body is 1/4in, which is where a gauge would be fitted if you need one later.
