The AirTAC GC30008AF2 AirTAC F.R.L. Combination, PT1/4, 40 um 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 automatic drain and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
The GC30008AF2 is an AirTAC GC-series three-unit F.R.L. combination: a separate air filter, pressure regulator and oil-mist lubricator assembled as one set. It cleans compressed air by removing water and particulate down to 40 um, holds downstream pressure within a 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi) adjustment range, and meters oil mist into the air line for tools and actuators that need lubrication. This configuration is sized for 1/4 in PT ports, carries a 40 um standard filter element with an automatic drain on the filter bowl, and includes an embedded square gauge scaled in psi. The polycarbonate bowls suit the -5 to 70 C (non-freezing) operating range, and maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi).
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GC line is available in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600, with port options from 1/8 to 1 in, PT as the standard thread and G or NPT as catalogue options, a choice of 40 um or 5 um (code W) filtration, differential-pressure, automatic or manual draining, and gauge scales in MPa, psi or bar. Flow is published as curves rather than a single rated figure, so ask us to confirm the datasheet and sizing for your application before ordering.

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 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: GF300-08 filter, GR300-08 regulator and GL300-08 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 spray guns and air-assisted applicators on a finishing line, where the filter strips water and 40 um-plus particulate, the regulator holds a steady gun pressure and the lubricator is bypassed or set per the gun maker's air-prep requirements.
Conditioning the 1/4 in air drop at a machining cell so pneumatic clamps, tool-change cylinders and air blast nozzles receive clean, regulated air, with the lubricator supplying oil mist where air tools are used at the bench.
Air preparation for carton sealers, case packers and palletiser cylinders, where the automatic drain keeps condensate out of valves during shifts, the psi gauge gives operators a visible setpoint and the lubricator extends cylinder seal life.
Start with the port and size step: this unit is the 300 size with a 1/4 in PT port, and larger sizes (400, 600) carry larger ports and more flow capacity. Choose the drain to match maintenance practice - the automatic drain fitted here removes condensate without manual intervention, while manual and differential-pressure drains are the other catalogue choices. Filtration is 40 um standard; specify the W code if the application needs 5 um. The square gauge here reads in psi; MPa and bar scales, plus an external round gauge, are available. Thread is PT as standard, with G (BSPP) and NPT as orderable options.
Because flow is published as curves and not as a single rated number, we do not quote a flow figure here. 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 GR300-08 regulator with a GF300-08 filter on that branch.
AirTAC publishes flow for this series as curves rather than a single rated figure, so we do not state a l/min, SCFM or Cv number here. Tell us your application and required flow and we will confirm the datasheet figures and check that the 300 size at 1/4 in PT is correctly sized before you order.
The A in the code GC30008AF2 specifies an automatic drain on the filter bowl, which expels collected condensate without an operator having to open the drain. The catalogue also offers manual and differential-pressure drains on the same series, so you can order a different drain code if your maintenance routine prefers it.
