About the AirTAC GC400-10 FRL Unit (GC40010AN)
GC40010AN is an AirTAC GC-series three-unit F.R.L. combination: a separate air filter, pressure regulator and lubricator assembled as one 400-size set on PT 3/8-inch ports. With the standard 40 um element it removes water and particulate, sets downstream working pressure, and meters oil mist to the cylinders and air tools that follow. This code carries the automatic-drain filter bowl (A), the standard regulator type and no gauge (N). The filter and lubricator bowls are polycarbonate at size 400. The regulator adjusts from 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) on this automatic-drain version. The medium is compressed air only, maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), and operating temperature is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing).
This is a genuine AirTAC part sold by a US distributor. The GC series is also offered in 200, 300 and 600 sizes with ports from 1/8 to 1 inch, with manual or differential-pressure drains, a 5 um element option, gauge options and thread options (G/BSPP and NPT besides the PT standard). Flow is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, so ask us to confirm the datasheet and sizing 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 (GC40010AN)
| GC400 | G-series F.R.L. combination, 400 body — sets the port range. |
|---|---|
| 10 | Port size PT3/8". This body offers 10 = PT3/8", 15 = PT1/2". |
| A | Drain: Automatic drain — this also sets the regulating band (0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 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. |
| (blank) | Filtering grade 40 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: 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 (GC40010AN) Is Used
Pneumatic stamping bench
Feeds a small air press on a job-shop stamping bench with filtered, regulated, lubricated air, so the press cylinders run on conditioned supply from one 3/8-inch set.
Workshop air-tool station
Conditions the supply at a maintenance-shop tool drop where nailers and impact drivers are used all shift, with the lubricator oil-misting the tools and the automatic drain clearing the bowl.
Robot gripper cells
Supplies the gripper manifolds on an assembly robot cell, where the standard regulator sets actuation pressure and the 40 um element keeps debris out of the gripper circuit.
Is the AirTAC GC400-10 FRL Unit (GC40010AN) the Right Station?
Pick the 400 size where 3/8-inch supply piping is specified; drop to 300 for lighter circuits or step to 600 when the line grows - because flow appears only as curves, we confirm the fit against your consumption before ordering. The automatic drain (A) handles bowl emptying unattended; manual (M) and differential-pressure (blank) drains are alternatives. Element grade is the standard 40 um (order W for 5 um), and the regulator is the standard type adjusting 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) on this automatic-drain set. N means no gauge is fitted, though gauge options can be selected in the code. Thread is PT as standard, with G and NPT as catalogue options, and a bracket is optional.
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 (GC40010AN) FAQ
There is no single rated flow figure to quote: AirTAC publishes flow for the GC series as characteristic curves across pressure ranges. Tell us your working pressure and air consumption and we will confirm the flow and the full datasheet on request before you order.
The N in the code specifies the set without a pressure gauge; the regulator itself remains fully adjustable. If you want fitted pressure indication, gauge options for GC units can be selected in the code when ordering.
