The AirTAC GC20008MF2K AirTAC F.R.L. Combination PT1/4 Manual Drain 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 PT1/4" ports, a 40 µm element, a manual drain and regulates 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi).
The GC20008MF2K is an AirTAC GC200 three-unit F.R.L. combination: a separate air filter, pressure regulator and oil-mist lubricator assembled as one air-preparation set. This configuration is built around a 1/4 in PT port, a 40 um filter element and a manual drain, so the operator drains the filter bowl by hand as part of routine checks. The regulator carries a standard adjustment range of 0.05-0.9 MPa (7-130 psi) and is fitted with an embedded square gauge scaled in psi, with an external round gauge available as an option. A reverse/check valve is fitted, and the polycarbonate bowl suits the compressed-air duty of this size.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GC family is offered in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600, with port sizes stepping up from 1/4 in through 1 in, drain choices of differential-pressure, automatic or manual, a 40 um standard element or a 5 um (W) element, and gauge scales in MPa, psi or bar. Flow figures for this series are published as curves rather than a single rating, so we confirm the datasheet and sizing on request before you order.

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 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: GF200-08 filter, GR200-08 regulator and GL200-08 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 pneumatic clamps and tool-change cylinders on a CNC machining centre, with the psi gauge letting setters verify set pressure at the machine.
Conditioning the air supply to diverters, pushers and seal jaws on a packaging conveyor, where the lubricator keeps cylinder seals working and the manual drain is emptied during line cleaning.
Preparing compressed air for bench-top laboratory automation - grippers, valves and small actuators - with the 40 um element and check valve protecting the downstream circuit.
Start with the port and size step: this unit is the 200 size at 1/4 in PT, and larger GC sizes (300/400/600) move up to 1/2 in, 3/4 in and 1 in ports for higher air demand. Choose the drain to match maintenance habits: manual (as here) means an operator drains the bowl, automatic handles it unattended, and differential-pressure is the default. Pick the filter grade for the air quality the downstream tools need: 40 um standard for general plant air, 5 um (code W) where finer particulate removal matters. Set the gauge scale to suit the team - MPa, psi or bar - and note the thread: PT is the standard here, with G (BSPP) and NPT available as order options. A mounting bracket is included.
Because the catalogue publishes flow as curves rather than one rated number, ask us to confirm the flow and datasheet figures against your application 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 of the regulator. If any branch of the line must stay oil-free, take that branch off before the lubricator, or use a GR200-08 regulator with a GF200-08 filter on that branch.
AirTAC publishes flow for the GC series as curves, not as a single rated figure, so we do not quote a rated flow, Cv or SCFM number. Send us your application details and we will confirm the flow and datasheet figures for this 1/4 in, size-200 unit on request before you order.
The M in the code GC20008MF2K specifies a manual drain: the filter bowl is drained by hand as part of routine maintenance. If you would rather not rely on an operator, the same GC200 combination is available with an automatic drain (code A) or the differential-pressure drain that is the default, and the filter element can be specified as 5 um (code W) instead of the standard 40 um.
