The AirTAC AirTAC GC40010AF2 F.R.L. Combination, PT3/8, 3-Unit 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 40 µm element, a automatic drain and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
The AirTAC GC40010AF2 is a three-piece F.R.L. combination unit: a separate air filter, a pressure regulator and an oil-mist lubricator assembled as one supply package. This configuration is the GC400 size with PT3/8 ports and PT (BSPT-type) thread as the standard connection. The filter element is the standard 40 um grade for general-purpose water and particulate removal, the drain is the automatic type so the filter bowl clears collected condensate without manual attention, and the regulator is the standard type with an adjustment range of 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi). An embedded square gauge reading in psi is fitted so the set pressure is visible at the point of use, and the polycarbonate bowls suit the 400 size. Maximum working (inlet) pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and the operating temperature range is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing).
This is a genuine AirTAC part supplied by airdistr for the US market. The GC family is available in the 200, 300, 400 and 600 sizes with a step of port options, and choices such as manual or differential-pressure drain, 5 um (code W) filtration, an external round gauge, MPa/psi/bar scale variants, G or NPT thread and a reverse/check valve can be ordered where the catalogue offers them. Rated flow for this series is published as curves rather than a single figure, so ask us to confirm the datasheet and flow figures for your application 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: GF400-10 filter, GR400-10 regulator and GL400-10 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 filtered, regulated and lubricated air to the tool-changer, clamps and pneumatic actuators of a CNC machining centre, with the square psi gauge letting the setter verify set pressure at the machine.
Conditioning the air at a paint-line drop: the 40 um element removes water and particulate ahead of spray equipment, the regulator holds a steady set pressure, and the lubricator mists oil for downstream air tools.
Supplying treated air to the cylinders and vacuum generators on a packaging or case-sealing line, where the automatic drain keeps condensate off the machine without an operator having to bleed the bowl each shift.
Start with the port step: the GC400 series covers the 400 size with this unit at PT3/8, and moving to a larger size gives a larger port and more flow capacity - match the size to the air demand of the machine rather than oversizing on price alone. Then settle the decodable options: drain type (automatic here, with manual and differential-pressure available), filter grade (40 um standard, 5 um for finer particulate), gauge scale (psi fitted here; MPa and bar variants exist), thread (PT is standard; G and NPT are order options), and whether a reverse/check valve is needed. A mounting bracket is included with this configuration.
One honest note on sizing: AirTAC publishes flow for this series as curves, not as a single rated number, so we do not quote a flow figure here. Send us your application's air demand and we will confirm the correct size and the datasheet figures before you order.
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 GR400-10 regulator with a GF400-10 filter on that branch.
AirTAC publishes flow for the GC series as performance curves rather than a single rated figure, so we do not state a flow number on the product page. Tell us your application's air demand and we will confirm the correct size and provide the datasheet flow figures on request.
This configuration is coded with the automatic drain, which expels collected condensate from the filter bowl without manual attention - useful on lines that run unattended. Manual and differential-pressure drain variants are also available in the GC series and can be ordered where the catalogue offers them.
