The AirTAC AirTAC GC200-08 F.R.L. Combination G1/4, 5 um, Manual Drain 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 PT1/4" ports, a 5 µm element, a manual drain and regulates 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi).
The AirTAC GC200-08 is a three-piece F.R.L. combination: a separate air filter, pressure regulator and oil-mist lubricator assembled as one air-treatment set. This configuration is built with a 1/4 inch G-thread port, a 5 um filter element for finer particulate and water removal, a manual drain on the filter bowl, a low-pressure type regulator, and a fitted embedded square gauge reading in psi. The polycarbonate bowls suit the 200 size, and the mounting bracket is included.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GC family is available in 200, 300, 400 and 600 sizes with a choice of port, thread (PT standard, with G and NPT as order options), drain type, filter grade (40 um standard, 5 um optional), gauge scale and reverse/check valve. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so we confirm datasheet and flow figures on request before you order.

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. The low-pressure type adjusts over a lower band than standard; we confirm the exact figures from the factory datasheet. 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.

|---|---|
| 08 | Port size PT1/4". This body offers 06 = PT1/8", 08 = PT1/4". |
| M | Drain: Manual drain — this also sets the regulating band (0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi)). |
| L | Low-pressure type. Blank is standard, L is the low-pressure type. |
| (blank) | Pressure gauge fitted (blank). |
| F | Gauge shape: Square. C is round, F is square. |

| W | Filtering grade 5 µm. Only 40 µm (blank) and 5 µm (W) exist. |
| G | G (BSPP) 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: GF200-08 filter, GR200-08 regulator and GL200-08 lubricator.
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.

Feeding impact wrenches and nutrunners on a car-body trim line: the 5 um element keeps fine contamination out of the tools, the regulator holds a steady set pressure, and the lubricator mists oil into the tool air supply.
Supplying the cylinders and clamps on a carton forming and sealing conveyor: clean, regulated, lubricated air keeps the small actuators moving smoothly through repeated shift cycles, with the square psi gauge giving operators a visible setpoint.
Conditioning the supply to pneumatic valves and jet controls on a weaving line: the low-pressure regulator suits circuits running at reduced pressure, while filtration and oil mist protect the valve spools in continuous duty.
Start with the size and port: the 200 size with its 1/4 inch port is the entry step of the GC range, and larger sizes (300/400/600) carry larger ports and more flow, so step up if your downstream demand is heavy. The 5 um element in this unit is the finer of the two published grades (40 um standard, 5 um with code W) - choose it where downstream valves and cylinders are sensitive to finer contamination. The manual drain means an operator opens the bowl drain periodically; if you cannot guarantee that routine, consider the automatic or differential-pressure drain option instead.
The low-pressure type regulator in this code is selected where the circuit works below the standard regulator band - its exact range is not published, so confirm it with us against your set pressure. The fitted square gauge reads in psi (MPa and bar scales are the other options). Thread here is G (BSPP); PT is the standard thread and G/NPT are order options. A mounting bracket is included. Because flow is published as curves and not a single rating, ask us to confirm sizing against your application before ordering.
Quick checklist
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 GR200-08 regulator with a GF200-08 filter on that branch.
AirTAC publishes flow for this family as curves, not as a single rated figure, so we do not quote a number. Send us your downstream demand and line pressure and we will confirm the flow and sizing from the datasheet on request before you order.
The M in the code sets a manual drain on the filter bowl: an operator opens it periodically to expel collected water. If that routine is not practical at your site, the same GC combination is available with an automatic drain (code A) or the differential-pressure drain (blank), which drains without operator action.
