About the Airtac GC FRL Unit GC400C15AC1
GC400C15AC1 is a genuine AirTAC G-series three-unit F.R.L. combination: separate air filter, pressure regulator and lubricator assembled as one set. The 400 size carries PT 1/2 in ports. This configuration is the 40 um standard filter grade, the automatic drain (A), which expels collected condensate from the bowl on its own, and the round external gauge (C) with an MPa scale (1) for reading the regulated pressure. The regulator adjusts from 0.15 to 0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) on this automatic-drain version. Maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi); working temperature is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing. The 400-size bowls are polycarbonate (PC).
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The G-series F.R.L. line spans 200, 300, 400 and 600 sizes with ports from 1/8 in to 1 in, 40 um standard or 5 um (W) filtration, differential-pressure, automatic and manual drain variants, embedded square or external round gauges in MPa, psi or bar scales, and a K check-valve variant. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, so ask us to confirm sizing and datasheet figures for your application.

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.

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-C1 filter, GR400-C1 regulator and GL400-C1 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 GC FRL Unit GC400C15AC1 Is Used
Beverage bottling line actuators
Conditions the air feeding filler lift cylinders, capper heads and conveyor stops on a bottling line, with the automatic drain handling condensate on a line that runs unattended shifts.
Trailer assembly plant air drops
Serves half-inch branch drops on a commercial trailer assembly floor, feeding impact wrench stations and pneumatic fixtures while the round MPa gauge gives operators a visible set pressure.
Automotive assembly cell cylinders
Supplies the press, clamp and rotate cylinders of an automotive sub-assembly cell, combining filtration, regulation and lubrication at one wall-mounted point of use.
Is the Airtac GC FRL Unit GC400C15AC1 the Right Station?
Size 400 with PT 1/2 in ports is the step for lines plumbed at half-inch; move to 200/300/600 as your flow requirement changes, since port size and flow capacity rise together through the range. The A drain discharges condensate automatically, a fit for unattended or hard-to-reach mountings; differential-pressure (blank) and manual (M) drains are the other codes. This is the 40 um standard filter grade; choose W for 5 um filtration of sensitive valves. The round external gauge reads in MPa; psi and bar scales and an embedded square gauge are other order choices. Thread is PT as the standard; G (BSPP) and NPT are catalogue options to order. 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 (See datasheet 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-C1 regulator with a GF400-C1 filter on that branch.
Airtac GC FRL Unit GC400C15AC1 FAQ
AirTAC publishes flow for G-series units as curves, not as a single rated figure, so we do not quote a rated flow number. Send us your line pressure and consumption and we will confirm the sizing against the datasheet curves on request.
The A in GC400C15AC1 is the automatic drain, which expels collected condensate from the bowl without operator action. The other codes are the differential-pressure drain (blank, the default) and the manual drain (M); note the regulator's 0.05-0.9 MPa adjust range applies to manual-drain versions, while this automatic-drain set adjusts 0.15-0.9 MPa.
