The AirTAC GC30008AF2W AirTAC F.R.L. Combination, 1/4 in, 5 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 5 µm element, a automatic drain and regulates 0.15 - 0.9 MPa (20 - 130 psi).
The GC30008AF2W is a three-piece AirTAC F.R.L. combination: a separate air filter, pressure regulator and oil-mist lubricator assembled as one supply unit. This configuration is built for 1/4 in PT ports in the 300 size. The filter element is the fine 5 um grade (code W) and the bowl drains automatically, so collected water is expelled without manual attention. The regulator is the standard type with an adjustment range of 0.15-0.9 MPa (20-130 psi), read on the fitted embedded square gauge with a psi scale; an external round gauge is available as an option. Maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi), operating temperature is -5 to 70 C (non-freezing), and the polycarbonate bowls suit the 300 size (only the 600 size uses aluminium alloy). A mounting bracket is included.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GC series is offered in 200, 300, 400 and 600 sizes with port options from 1/8 in to 1 in, and with choices of drain type, filter grade, gauge scale and thread (PT standard, G and NPT as order options). Published flow data appears as curves rather than a single rating, so ask us to confirm the datasheet figures 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.

Feeds clean, regulated and lubricated air to the tool-changer, clamps and pneumatic actuators on a machining cell, with 5 um filtration protecting fine-control valves.
Supplies the pick-and-place and carton-sealing cylinders on a packaging conveyor, keeping the pressure steady at the setpoint while the lubricator oils the cylinders in continuous duty.
Prepares the air feeding spray guns and air-assisted equipment in a finishing booth, where the 5 um element and automatic drain help keep water and particulate out of the finish.
Start with the size and port: the 300 size with 1/4 in PT ports suits typical machine-supply lines, while larger 400/600 sizes carry more flow and smaller 200 sizes suit compact drops - match the step to your air demand rather than to the fitting alone. Choose the drain to suit access: automatic (as fitted here) where the unit is hard to reach, manual where you prefer controlled draining, or the differential-pressure default. Choose the filter grade: 40 um is the standard element; the 5 um grade fitted here is the finer option for downstream equipment that needs cleaner air. Set the gauge scale to MPa, psi or bar, and confirm the thread: PT is the standard, with G (BSPP) and NPT available as order options. Because flow is published only as curves and not as a single rated figure, ask us to confirm sizing against your application 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 quote one number. Send us your application details and we will confirm the relevant flow and datasheet figures for the 300 size at 1/4 in PT before you order.
The W code in GC30008AF2W selects the optional 5 um element in place of the 40 um standard grade. The finer element suits downstream equipment such as precision valves, spray equipment and instrumentation; if your line only needs bulk water and particle removal, the 40 um grade is the standard choice.
