The AirTAC AirTAC GFC200-08 Combination Unit (GFC20008F3W) is a genuine G-series two-unit air-preparation set: a filter regulator that filters and regulates in one body, coupled to a lubricator. Two bodies do the work of three, with PT1/4" ports, a 5 µm element, a differential-pressure drain and regulation over 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
The AirTAC GFC series is a two-unit air preparation set: a filter-regulator in one body, paired with a separate lubricator. This GFC20008F3W is the size 200 frame with 1/4 in PT ports and the W filter grade, meaning a 5 um element instead of the standard 40 um, for finer removal of water and particulate. The regulator covers 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) with the differential-pressure drain, and the lubricator completes the set downstream. The embedded square gauge is scaled in bar.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The G series runs in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600 with a choice of ports, drain types, filter grades, gauges and PT, G or NPT threads; the 200-size bowls are polycarbonate. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so we confirm the datasheet 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 set has no separate bracket code — the two 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 set. Constituent units, orderable separately as spares: GFR200-08 filter regulator and GL200-08 lubricator.
A GFC is two units because filtering and regulating share one body. A GC is three separate units — filter, regulator and lubricator. Both filter, regulate and lubricate; the GFC is the shorter assembly, the GC keeps the filter and regulator serviceable as separate bodies.

Put 5 um-grade air ahead of the solenoid valve manifold on a bottling or cartoning machine, protecting the spool valves from finer particles.
Condition the air supply to quarter-turn pneumatic actuators on process lines, with the regulator set in bar and the finer element reducing carryover to the positioner circuit.
Feed pneumatic clamps, swing cylinders and sequence valves on welding or machining jigs where the control valves need cleaner-than-standard air.
Choose this W variant when the standard 40 um grade is too coarse for the valves or devices downstream; 40 um remains the default on the plain F3 version. Size 200 with 1/4 in ports suits compact branch lines, with GFC300 to GFC600 for larger flows. The differential-pressure drain is the default and automatic (A) or manual (M) versions can be ordered. The square gauge is in the bar scale, with MPa and psi alternatives. PT is the standard thread; G (BSPP) and NPT are options to order, and a mounting bracket is included.
Quick checklist
The PC bowls must not be cleaned with solvents — wipe them with a dry cloth. The lubricator adds an oil mist downstream, so if any branch must stay oil-free, take that branch off before the lubricator or use a GFR200-08 filter regulator on its own.
AirTAC publishes G-series flow as curves rather than a single rated figure, and we do not quote a number here. Ask us to confirm the datasheet flow for the 5 um grade at your working pressure before finalising the size.
Take the W (5 um) variant when the downstream valves, actuators or instruments need finer filtration than the standard grade provides. If your circuit is general-purpose cylinder and tool air, the 40 um version on the same size is usually the simpler choice.
