About the AirTAC GC400-10 FRL Unit (GC40010AF1K)
The GC40010AF1K is an AirTAC G-series three-unit F.R.L. combination: a separate air filter, pressure regulator and lubricator assembled in sequence. This configuration is the 400 size with a 3/8 inch PT port, a 40 um standard filter element, and an automatic drain on the filter bowl that expels collected condensate without operator attention. The regulator carries an embedded square gauge scaled in MPa, and a reverse (check) valve is fitted to hold downstream conditions if supply pressure drops.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The G series is available in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600, with port, drain, filter grade, gauge and thread options to suit the installation; the maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi). Flow figures for the series are published as curves rather than a single rating, so ask us and we will confirm the datasheet numbers for your application 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 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 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 GC400-10 FRL Unit (GC40010AF1K)
| GC400 | G-series F.R.L. combination, 400 body — sets the port range. |

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: GF400-10 filter, GR400-10 regulator and GL400-10 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 GC400-10 FRL Unit (GC40010AF1K) Is Used
Pneumatic press feed
Conditions the air feeding a pneumatic stamping or assembly press: the filter removes water and scale, the regulator sets clamping force via the MPa gauge, and the lubricator mists the cylinder seals on every stroke.
Packaging line air supply
A single supply point for the diverters, lifters and seal jaws on a carton packaging line, with the automatic drain coping with condensate from a long shop-air run without daily manual draining.
Automated pick-and-place cell
Feeds the vacuum ejectors and gripper cylinders of a robotic pick-and-place cell; the check valve helps hold the circuit steady during brief upstream pressure dips.
Is the AirTAC GC400-10 FRL Unit (GC40010AF1K) the Right Station?
At size 400 with a 3/8 inch port, this unit sits in the upper-middle of the G range; step to 600 for larger ports and higher flow, or to 300/200 where demand is smaller. Because flow is published as curves and not a single rated figure, ask us to confirm sizing against your air consumption before ordering. With the automatic drain fitted, the regulator adjustment range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi); a manual-drain variant widens the low end to 0.05 MPa (7 psi). The 40 um element is the standard grade for general plant air - choose the W suffix for the 5 um option if downstream equipment needs finer filtration. This code carries the square gauge in MPa; square psi and bar scales are available, and PT is the standard thread with G (BSPP) and NPT as catalogue alternatives.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Body size for your peak flow (PT3/8" 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 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 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 GR400-10 regulator with a GF400-10 filter on that branch.
AirTAC GC400-10 FRL Unit (GC40010AF1K) FAQ
AirTAC publishes flow for the GC series as curves rather than a single rated figure, so we do not quote one number here. Tell us your working pressure and air consumption and we will confirm the relevant datasheet flow figures for this 3/8 inch size on request.
This code has the automatic drain, and with auto or differential-pressure draining the regulator range is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi). If you need setpoints down to 0.05 MPa (7 psi), choose the manual-drain version of the same GC400 unit.
