About the Airtac GC FRL Unit GC400C15AF1
The AirTAC GC series is a three-unit F.R.L. combination: a separate air filter, pressure regulator and lubricator arranged on one compressed-air line. This size 400 configuration is built around a PT1/2 (1/2 in) port, the standard 40 um filter element for general plant-air filtration, an automatic drain that clears condensate from the filter bowl unattended, and an embedded square pressure gauge scaled in MPa. Maximum working pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), the filter and lubricator bowls are polycarbonate at 400 size, and the temperature range is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing).
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GC family is offered in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600, with your choice of differential-pressure, automatic or manual drain, 40 um standard or 5 um (W) filtration, embedded square or external round gauges in MPa, psi or bar scales, an optional check valve, and G (BSPP) or NPT threads as catalogue alternatives to the PT standard. Flow figures are published as curves rather than a single rating, so we confirm datasheet and sizing numbers 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.

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 GC400C15AF1 Is Used
Machining centre air supply
Feeding regulated and lubricated air to the tool-clamp and chip-conveyor cylinders of a CNC machining centre, with the 40 um element handling general plant-air cleanliness.
Woodworking edge-bander
Conditioning the supply air for the hold-down rollers and pressure beams on a woodworking edge-banding machine, with the automatic drain clearing condensate between runs.
Bottling conveyor gating
Supplying pressure-set air to the gate and stopper cylinders along a bottling hall conveyor, with the lubricator maintaining the downstream actuators.
Is the Airtac GC FRL Unit GC400C15AF1 the Right Station?
Step up to size 400 and its PT1/2 port when the line's consumption exceeds what a GC300 (3/8 in) set serves, and move to GC600 for 3/4 in headers. The automatic drain on this unit suits installations without a resident operator; manual drain fits a supervised compressor room and differential-pressure drain is the standard default. The 40 um element is the standard grade for general plant air - select 5 um (W) only where downstream valves or cylinders need finer protection. This set carries the embedded square gauge in MPa; a round external gauge and psi or bar scales are also orderable. PT thread is standard, with G (BSPP) and NPT available as catalogue options.
Flow for the GC series is published as curves, not a single rated figure, so tell us your operating pressure and air consumption and we will confirm the sizing from the datasheet before you order.
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 GC400C15AF1 FAQ
AirTAC publishes GC-series flow as curves rather than a single rated number, so no one-figure rating appears here. Share your working pressure and consumption with us and we will confirm the flow data from the datasheet on request.
F1 specifies the embedded square pressure gauge on the MPa scale. The same set can be ordered with a round external gauge (C) and with psi (scale 2) or bar (scale 3) scales to match the instruments already on your plant floor.
