About the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC50020ASK
This GAFC50020ASK is an F.R.L. combination where the filter and regulator share one body, paired with a lubricator on a T-bracket. It handles a 3/4in port with a 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) range, using a 40 um element to clean the air before it reaches the lubricator stage.
The 108 cc condensate bowl and 225 cc oil bowl set the service rhythm for this 1910 g unit, which suits a machine header feeding multiple actuators. A circular gauge with an MPa/psi scale is fitted, and the automatic drain clears water without operator attention.

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 GAFC50020ASK Is Used
Machine tool headers
Feed a 3/4in header on a CNC lathe or milling center, where the 7000 L/min envelope at 0.7 MPa inlet supports multiple cylinders and valves from one point.
Assembly line lubrication
Supply a multi-station conveyor system with filtered, regulated air and a metered oil mist for pneumatic grippers and slides that need consistent lubrication.
Packaging equipment
Run a case packer or palletizer with this 1910 g unit, where the automatic drain keeps condensate out of downstream valves during long production runs.
Is the Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC50020ASK the Right Air-Prep Unit?
Choose this GAFC500 for a 3/4in line where the 108 cc drain bowl and 225 cc oil bowl reduce how often someone checks the unit. The PC bowl is the standard build, and the automatic drain suits lines that run unattended for long shifts. The 40 um element covers general shop air, while the fitted gauge reads in MPa and psi for the PT thread. The reverse-flow valve is included as a separate symbol in the catalogue. Spares are the GAFR500-20 filter-regulator and GAL500-20 lubricator, both orderable separately. The 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.1 MPa above the 0.9 MPa top of the regulated range, so plan the inlet pressure accordingly.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (3/4" 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 108 cc bowl fills.
- check Keep the unit above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
- check Support the 1910 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 GAFR500-20 filter-regulator on that branch instead of the full combination.
Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC50020ASK FAQ
The working pressure range is 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). It operates from -5 to 70 C, uses ISO VG 32 oil, has a 108 cc drain bowl and 225 cc oil bowl, and weighs 1910 g.
The A code specifies an automatic drain that clears condensate from the 108 cc bowl without manual intervention. This is useful for lines that run continuously or in locations where an operator cannot regularly check the bowl level.
