About the AirTAC GC300-08 FRL Unit (GC30008MNW)
The GC30008MNW is a genuine AirTAC three-piece F.R.L. combination - separate filter, regulator and lubricator - with the W-code 5 um filter element for finer particulate removal than the standard 40 um grade. This size 300 set is threaded PT1/4 (PT is the standard thread; G and NPT are catalogue options), drains the filter bowl manually (M code), has the standard regulator type and no pressure gauge fitted (N code). Maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi); operating range -5 to 70 C, non-freezing. At size 300, the filter and lubricator bowls are PC (polycarbonate).
Across the G-series you can step through sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 and ports from 1/8 to 1 inch, choose drain types (differential-pressure, automatic or manual), pick 40 um or 5 um (W) filtration, add gauges with MPa, psi or bar scales, and order the reverse/check valve (K). Flow for the GC30008MNW is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, so we confirm the datasheet and flow curves on request.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC G-series air-preparation data. The regulating band is set by the drain type: automatic and differential-pressure drains regulate 0.15 - 0.9 MPa, a manual drain regulates 0.05 - 0.9 MPa. Standard type, regulating 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi). The combination has no separate bracket code — the three units couple together with their own mounting hardware. Flow curves, weight and outline dimensions are not published in our data set — ask us and we will confirm from the factory datasheet.
Model Code: AirTAC GC300-08 FRL Unit (GC30008MNW)
| GC300 | G-series F.R.L. combination, 300 body — sets the port range. |
|---|---|
| 08 | Port size PT1/4". This body offers 08 = PT1/4", 10 = PT3/8", 15 = PT1/2". |
| M | Drain: Manual drain — this also sets the regulating band (0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi)). |
| (blank) | Standard type. Blank is standard, L is the low-pressure type. |
| N | No pressure gauge (N). |
| (blank) | Gauge shape: Factory standard. C is round, F is square. |
| (blank) | Gauge scale: Factory standard. 1 is MPa, 2 is psi, 3 is bar. |
| W | Filtering grade 5 µm. Only 40 µm (blank) and 5 µm (W) exist. |
| (blank) | PT thread. PT is the default; G is BSPP and T is NPT. |
| (blank) | No reverse-flow valve (the default). |
Field order is size, port, drain, type, gauge, shape, scale, grade, thread, reflux — there is no bracket position on a combination. Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GF300-08 filter, GR300-08 regulator and GL300-08 lubricator.
Size Class & How It Differs From GFC
- GC200PT1/8" - PT1/4"
- GC300PT1/4" - PT1/2"
- GC400PT3/8" - PT1/2"
- GC600PT3/4" - PT1"
A GC is three separate units, so the filter and the regulator can each be serviced or replaced on their own. A GFC is the two-unit set, where filtering and regulating share one body — shorter, but the two functions come as one part. Both filter, regulate and lubricate.

Where the AirTAC GC300-08 FRL Unit (GC30008MNW) Is Used
Electronics Assembly Pick-and-Place
Feeds pick-and-place gantries and vacuum ejectors on an electronics line, where the 5 um element keeps fine particulate out of ejector and mini-valve circuits.
Laboratory Automation Air Prep
Conditions air for lab automation platforms - liquid handlers, plate movers - where a cleaner 5 um supply and steady regulated pressure matter to repeatable motion.
Body Shop Air Tool Drops
Supplies impact wrenches, drills and sanders at automotive body shop drops; the lubricator keeps tools oiled and the manual drain suits end-of-shift service rounds.
Is the AirTAC GC300-08 FRL Unit (GC30008MNW) the Right Station?
Choose the size and port step (200 to 600, 1/8 to 1 inch) against your circuit's consumption; this is size 300 at PT1/4. Drain type: this unit is manual drain (M); automatic (A) and differential-pressure (default) versions exist where bowls are not drained on schedule. Regulation range for this manual-drain set is 0.05-0.9 MPa (7-130 psi). The W code selects the 5 um element - pick it over the standard 40 um where finer dirt holding protects sensitive downstream components. No gauge is fitted (N code); embedded square or external round gauges with MPa, psi or bar scales can be ordered. Thread is PT as standard, with G (BSPP) and T (NPT) as catalogue options. Flow is published as curves, not a single rating, so ask us to confirm sizing against your application before ordering.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (PT1/4" here)
- ✓ Element 40 µm or 5 µm
- ✓ Drain sets the regulating band
- ✓ Gauge fitted, shape and scale
- ✓ Three-unit (GC) or two-unit (GFC) layout
- ✓ Oil mist acceptable downstream
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Install with the airflow arrow: filter first, lubricator last.
- check Mount vertically, bowls down.
- check Keep inlet pressure at or below 1.0 MPa (145 psi).
- check Adjust only within 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi).
- check Drain condensate before the bowl fills; check the oil level.
- check Keep the station above freezing (-5 to +70 °C, unfreeze).
The PC bowls must not be cleaned with solvents — wipe them with a dry cloth. The lubricator adds an oil mist downstream of the regulator. If any branch of the line must stay oil-free, take that branch off before the lubricator, or use a GR300-08 regulator with a GF300-08 filter on that branch.
AirTAC GC300-08 FRL Unit (GC30008MNW) FAQ
AirTAC publishes G-series flow only as curves, not as a single rated figure, so we do not quote a number. Send us your application details and we will confirm the GC30008MNW datasheet and flow curve on request, then check that size 300 at PT1/4 meets your demand.
The W code fits a 5 um element instead of the standard 40 um, holding back finer particulate before air reaches valves, cylinders or instruments. Choose it for precision circuits or dirty supply lines; the 40 um GC30008MN remains the simpler choice for general actuation.
