About the Airtac GC FRL Unit GC400C15AC1K
GC400C15AC1K is a genuine AirTAC G-series three-unit F.R.L. combination: separate air filter, pressure regulator and lubricator assembled as one set, with the trailing K adding a reverse (check) valve against backflow through the unit. 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 on its own, and the round external gauge (C) with an MPa scale (1). 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 GC400C15AC1K Is Used
Fixture clamping on a weld line
Feeds weld-fixture clamps that must stay closed through brief supply dips, with the check valve limiting backflow through the set and the round gauge showing the clamping pressure setting.
Conveyor diverter and gate actuation
Conditions air for diverter gates, stoppers and lift-and-locate units along a conveyor system, giving the whole run one point of filtration, regulation, lubrication and backflow protection.
Paint shop equipment air feed
Serves air-fed equipment and actuated paint-kitchen valves in a finishing shop, with the automatic drain clearing condensate and the regulator holding the set pressure the booth was tuned to.
Is the Airtac GC FRL Unit GC400C15AC1K the Right Station?
Pick this code over the plain GC400C15AC1 when you want the K reverse (check) valve fitted, blocking backflow through the set from the downstream side. Size 400 with PT 1/2 in ports fits half-inch plumbed lines; step to 200/300/600 as flow needs change. The A drain handles condensate automatically; differential-pressure (blank) and manual (M) drains are the alternative codes, and the 0.05-0.9 MPa adjust range applies to manual-drain versions versus 0.15-0.9 MPa here. This is the 40 um standard grade; choose W for 5 um. The round gauge reads in MPa; psi and bar scales and the embedded square gauge are other options. 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 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 GC400C15AC1K FAQ
Yes, on request. Flow for G-series units is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, so we do not state one rated number. Give us your working pressure and consumption and we will confirm the match against the datasheet curves before you order.
Only the trailing K: the K version has a reverse (check) valve fitted so the downstream side is blocked from pushing back through the set, while GC400C15AC1 has no check valve. Ports, drain, filter grade and gauge are otherwise the same decode.
