The AirTAC AirTAC GFC300-08 Combination Unit (GFC30008MF1W) 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 manual drain and regulation over 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi).
The AirTAC GFC series is a two-piece air preparation set: a filter-regulator and a lubricator mounted together, so one code covers filtration, pressure regulation and oil-mist lubrication. This GFC300 unit is made for 1/4 in PT piping and takes compressed air at up to 1.0 MPa (145 psi). The manual drain means you bleed condensate from the polycarbonate bowls by hand, the W element filters to 5 um instead of the standard 40 um, and the built-in square gauge reads set pressure in MPa. The regulator on the manual-drain version covers a setting range of 0.05-0.9 MPa (7-130 psi).
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The G series is offered in 200, 300, 400 and 600 sizes with ports from 1/8 to 1 in; PT is the standard thread and G (BSPP) or NPT are catalogue options to order. At 300 size the bowls are polycarbonate, and service is -5 to 70 C non-freezing. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, so ask us to confirm sizing and the datasheet for your application.

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 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 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: GFR300-08 filter regulator and GL300-08 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.

Sets the working pressure on a small bench press cylinder and feeds it oil-misted air, with the 5 um element keeping the valve seat clean.
Supplies the gripper and clamp cylinders on a cartoning or case-packing line with regulated, lubricated air from a single 1/4 in drop.
Prepares air for impact drivers and nutrunners at an assembly station, where the lubricator keeps the tool motor oiled during shifts.
Pick 300 size with the 1/4 in port when your line sits in the mid-range of the G series; step up to 400/600 or down to 200 to match piping and demand. Manual drain suits attended installations where operators drain the bowls during routine checks; automatic or differential-pressure drain codes cover unattended duty. This W code carries the finer 5 um element - choose it when downstream devices need cleaner air than the standard 40 um element gives. Gauge scale is MPa here; psi and bar scales are other catalogue codes. Flow is published as curves, not a single rating, so send us your air demand and we will confirm the sizing against the datasheet 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, so if any branch must stay oil-free, take that branch off before the lubricator or use a GFR300-08 filter regulator on its own.
AirTAC publishes flow for this series as characteristic curves, not as a single rated number, so there is no honest one-line figure to quote. Tell us your required flow and working pressure and we will confirm the sizing against the datasheet on request before you order.
M means the bowls are drained by hand, which suits attended installations; automatic (A) or differential-pressure (blank) drain versions exist for unattended duty. The trailing W selects the finer 5 um filter element; dropping the W gives the standard 40 um element in the same set.
