The AirTAC AirTAC GC40010ALC2G F.R.L. Combination Unit G3/8 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 GC40010ALC2G is a three-piece AirTAC GC combination unit that filters, regulates and lubricates compressed air in one assembled set: a separate filter with automatic drain, a low-pressure regulator and an oil-mist lubricator. This configuration is built around a 3/8 in port with G thread, a 40 um standard filter element, an automatic drain that removes collected condensate without manual attention, and a round pressure gauge reading in psi. The polycarbonate bowls suit the 400 size, maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), and the working temperature range is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing). A mounting bracket is included.
This is a genuine AirTAC part from the GC series, which spans the 200, 300, 400 and 600 sizes with a choice of ports and thread options (PT standard, G and NPT to order), manual or automatic drains, a 5 um element (code W) where finer filtration is needed, and gauge scale choices. Flow figures for this series are published as curves rather than a single rating, so ask us to confirm the datasheet and sizing 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. 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.

|---|---|
| 10 | Port size PT3/8". This body offers 10 = PT3/8", 15 = PT1/2". |
| A | Drain: Automatic drain — this also sets the regulating band (0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi)). |

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.

Feeds cleaned, regulated and lubricated air to the pneumatic clamps, tool-change cylinders and chip-clearing blasts on a CNC machining centre, with the automatic drain keeping condensate out of the valves between shifts.
Serves a bank of air cylinders and rotary actuators on a paced assembly line, where the lubricator carries a consistent oil mist to seals and the low-pressure regulator holds the circuit at the setting the tooling was designed around.
Supplies the diverters, sealers and gripper cylinders on a packaging conveyor line, with the 40 um element and automatic drain protecting downstream control valves from water and particulate carryover.
Start with the size and port step: the 400 size with a 3/8 in port sits in the middle of the GC range (200/300/400/600), so match it to the pipe size of the line it feeds and the flow your circuit needs - larger sizes carry larger ports and more flow. This unit already specifies the automatic drain, the 40 um standard element and the round psi gauge; if you would rather empty the bowls by hand, or need the finer 5 um element, those are decodable options within the family. Thread is G here, with PT as the standard and NPT available to order, and a mounting bracket is included.
One honest note on sizing: flow for this series is published as curves, not as a single rated figure, so we cannot quote a number on the page. Send us your application details and we will confirm the datasheet and check the sizing against your required flow 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 curves, not as a single rated figure, so there is no one number we can state here. Tell us your line pressure and the flow your circuit needs, and we will confirm the datasheet and check the 400-size curve against your application on request before you order.
The L code in GC40010ALC2G marks this as the low-pressure regulator type rather than the standard one. The exact adjustment range for the low-pressure version is not published on our sheet, so we confirm it from the datasheet on request. Everything else about the unit is fixed by the code: automatic drain, 40 um filter element, round psi gauge, G-threaded 3/8 in port and included bracket.
