AirTAC GC400-10 FRL Unit (GC40010ANW)
The AirTAC AirTAC GC400-10 FRL Unit (GC40010ANW) is a genuine G-series three-unit F.R.L. combination: a separate filter, a separate regulator and a separate lubricator assembled as one air-preparation station. It has PT3/8" ports, a 5 µm element, a automatic drain and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).

About the AirTAC GC400-10 FRL Unit (GC40010ANW)
The AirTAC GC series is a three-piece F.R.L. combination: a separate air filter, a pressure regulator and an oil-mist lubricator, so incoming compressed air is cleaned, regulated and lubricated in one installation. This GC40010ANW is the 400 size with 3/8" PT ports, an automatic drain on the polycarbonate filter bowl and the 5 um (W) filter element instead of the standard 40 um. No gauge is fitted (N); an external round gauge is available as an option if you need to read the regulated pressure at the unit.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The G-series covers 200, 300, 400 and 600 sizes with a choice of thread (PT as standard, G and NPT to order), drain types and filter grades, with a maximum working pressure of 1.0 MPa (145 psi). Flow figures are published as curves rather than a single rating, so ask us to confirm sizing and the full datasheet against your application before ordering.

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 (GC40010ANW)
| 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. |
| 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: 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 (GC40010ANW) Is Used
Automotive paint booths
Feeds spray guns with cleaned, regulated and lubricated air; the 5 um element catches fine contamination that would otherwise spoil paint finish, and the automatic drain clears condensate unattended.
CNC pneumatic clamping
Supplies oil-misted air to clamping and tool-change cylinders on machining centres, with the regulator holding a steady clamp pressure.
Packaging conveyor lines
Runs air cylinders on carton-forming and case-sealing equipment, where the automatic drain keeps condensate out of the downstream circuit.
Is the AirTAC GC400-10 FRL Unit (GC40010ANW) the Right Station?
At 400 size with 3/8" PT ports this unit suits lines with substantial air demand; step down to 300 or up to 600 if your flow curve calls for it. The automatic drain (A) ejects condensate from the bowl without operator attention - choose manual (M) if you prefer controlled draining. The W element filters to 5 um instead of the standard 40 um, for air that feeds sensitive equipment. Max working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi); operating temperature is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing. G and NPT threads are catalogue options in place of PT, and a mounting bracket is available. Flow is published as curves, not a single rating, so please confirm sizing with us before ordering.
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 (GC40010ANW) FAQ
AirTAC publishes flow for the GC series as performance curves, not as a single rated figure, so we do not quote a number here. Send us your application details and we will confirm the flow curve and correct sizing from the datasheet on request.
The W suffix fits a 5 um filter element in place of the standard 40 um element, giving finer particle removal for air that feeds spray equipment, instruments or other contamination-sensitive devices. The regulator, lubricator and rest of the set are unchanged.
