The AirTAC Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC600C20SNW 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 3/4" ports, a 5 µm filter element and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
This GAFC600C20SNW is a two-piece F.R.L. combination: a filter-regulator body paired with a lubricator, mounted on a T-bracket with quick clamps. The 3/4in port and 3430 g mass put it at the top of the GAFC range, sized for machine headers and multi-station lines rather than single actuators. Air enters the first body where the 5 um element traps fine particles and the regulator sets pressure to 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), then the lubricator adds a metered oil mist downstream.
The metal bowl is specified by the C code, and the shared specification of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) max and -5 to 70 C applies regardless of bowl material. With no gauge fitted, the 1/4in gauge connection is available if you add one later. The 205 cc condensate bowl and 410 cc oil bowl mean this unit needs less frequent attention than smaller bodies, though the 5 um element will require more regular service than a standard 40 um filter.

Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GAFR600-20 filter & regulator, GAL600-20 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.

Feed a CNC machining center's pneumatic clamping system with the 3/4in port and 12000 L/min envelope at 0.7 MPa inlet, ensuring consistent pressure for multiple workholding fixtures.
Supply a network of pneumatic actuators on an automotive assembly line where the 205 cc condensate bowl and 410 cc oil bowl reduce maintenance stops across several shifts.
Run a high-speed cartoning machine's cylinders and grippers with the 5 um element protecting sensitive control valves from fine particulate contamination.
Choose the GAFC600 when your line needs the 3/4in port and the capacity to feed multiple stations. The C code specifies a metal bowl, a build choice for environments where you want to confirm material compatibility with your surroundings. The drain is semi-auto plus manual: the semi-auto dumps condensate when pressure drops, and the manual drain gives on-demand control. The 5 um element suits precision valves or instrument air but will clog faster than the 40 um standard, so plan for more frequent element changes. The PT thread option comes with a gauge scale in MPa/psi, though this model ships without a gauge. The two units are orderable separately as GAFR600-20 and GAL600-20, so a damaged bowl or clogged element does not mean replacing the whole assembly. The 1.0 MPa max supply leaves about 0.1 MPa above the 0.9 MPa top of the regulated range, so plan a supply near 1.0 MPa if you need the full output.
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 GAFR600-20 filter-regulator on that branch instead of the full combination.
The working pressure range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) with a maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). Operating temperature is -5 to 70 C. The drain bowl holds 205 cc and the oil bowl holds 410 cc. Recommended lubricant is ISO VG 32. The unit weighs 3430 g and has a 3/4in port.
The C code specifies a metal bowl, which is the only bowl option for the GAFC600 body. The N after the port code means no gauge is supplied, but the 1/4in gauge connection is there if you need to add one. The metal bowl choice is a build decision - confirm it suits your specific environment, as the catalogue does not provide material-specific ratings.
