The AirTAC AirTAC GFC400-15 Combination Unit (GFC40015AC1K) 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 PT1/2" ports, a 40 µm element, a automatic drain and regulation over 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
GFC40015AC1K is an AirTAC G-series two-unit air-preparation set for a 1/2 in PT line: a 400-size filter regulator paired with a matching lubricator, so one set removes water and particulate, holds a set working pressure and meters oil mist into the air stream. The A code sets an automatic drain on the polycarbonate filter bowl, the standard 40 um element is fitted, C1 specifies the external round gauge with an MPa scale, and the trailing K marks a reverse (check) valve fitted in the set, which blocks back-flow from the downstream line toward the unit. Regulating range with automatic drain is 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), operating temperature -5 to 70 C.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The G series runs from 200 to 600 size, with differential-pressure, automatic or manual draining, 40 um standard or 5 um (W) filtration, MPa, psi or bar gauge scales, and PT as the standard thread with G (BSPP) and NPT as order options. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rating, so we confirm the datasheet figures and sizing 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: GFR400-15 filter regulator and GL400-15 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.

Runs the pusher and stopper cylinders along a bottle conveyor; the fitted check valve in this K code keeps downstream pressure from bleeding back when the upstream supply is isolated.
Serves a 1/2 in drop feeding impact wrenches and nut runners at an assembly bay, delivering filtered, regulated, lubricated air to the tools.
Air prep for the actuator supply on a bank of pneumatically actuated process valves, with the check valve holding the actuator circuit against back-flow from the line side.
This 400 size carries a 1/2 in port: step to 200 or 300 for smaller ports or to 600 for larger mains, matched to the flow curve of your demand. Draining is automatic (A); manual and differential-pressure drains are alternatives, and a manual drain widens the regulating range to 0.05-0.9 MPa (7-130 psi) from 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi). The element is the standard 40 um; gauge scales are MPa, psi or bar, with the embedded square gauge as an alternative to this external round gauge. Thread is PT as standard, with G (BSPP) and NPT to order. The K option adds the reverse (check) valve; order without K where back-flow is not a concern. AirTAC publishes flow as curves, not one rated figure, so ask us to confirm sizing 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, so if any branch must stay oil-free, take that branch off before the lubricator or use a GFR400-15 filter regulator on its own.
AirTAC publishes G-series performance as flow curves rather than a single rated figure, so no one number is quoted here. Send us your line pressure and air demand and we will confirm the flow and datasheet figures for this 1/2 in two-unit set on request.
It marks a reverse (check) valve fitted in the set, which blocks back-flow from the downstream line toward the unit when upstream pressure is lost or the supply is isolated. The identical set is available without K as GFC40015AC1 where that is not needed.
