The AirTAC Airtac GAFC Air Service Unit GAFC600C25ASWK 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 1" ports, a 5 µm filter element and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
This AirTAC GAFC600C25ASWK is a two-piece F.R.L. combination sized for a 1 inch line. The first body houses both the filter and the regulator, so air is cleaned and set to pressure in one step, then the lubricator adds a metered oil mist downstream. It carries a 5 um element and an automatic drain, with a metal bowl protecting the 205 cc condensate chamber and 410 cc oil reservoir.
Weighing 3430 g, this is the largest GAFC body and belongs on a machine header or a multi-station line, not hanging from plastic tubing. The standard pressure range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), with a circular gauge fitted that reads in MPa and psi. A reverse-flow valve is included, and the whole assembly mounts on a T-bracket with quick clamps.

Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GAFR600-25 filter & regulator, GAL600-25 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 1 inch header on a CNC machining center, supplying filtered and regulated air to multiple cylinders and tool changers with a single service point.
Protect a long conveyor system with several actuators, where the 205 cc drain bowl and 410 cc oil reservoir extend the interval between maintenance rounds.
Condition air for a high-speed cartoning machine, using the 5 um element to keep fine particulates away from precision valves and sensors.
Choose the GAFC600 when a 1 inch port and the 205 cc drain bowl justify fewer service stops on a busy line. The metal bowl is a build choice, not a performance upgrade; the shared specification of 1.0 MPa max and -5 to 70 C applies regardless, so confirm it suits your environment. The automatic drain clears condensate without an operator, and the 5 um element traps finer particles than the standard 40 um, though it will need more frequent attention. The PT thread brings a gauge scale in MPa and psi, and the K code adds the reverse-flow valve. Spares are the GAFR600-25 filter-regulator and the GAL600-25 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.
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 GAFR600-25 filter-regulator on that branch instead of the full combination.
This F.R.L. combination operates on air from 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), with a maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi). The temperature range is -5 to 70 C, and the recommended lubricant is ISO VG 32. It has a 205 cc drain bowl and a 410 cc oil bowl, weighs 3430 g, and the flow curve is plotted to 12000 L/min at 0.7 MPa inlet.
The C code specifies a metal bowl, which is a build choice for the GAFC600 body; the catalogue lists no performance difference between bowl materials, so confirm it fits your environment. The K code means a reverse-flow valve is fitted, shown as a separate symbol in the catalogue. Both options are part of the ordering code and do not change the pressure range or flow envelope.
