The AirTAC GC30008MC2W AirTAC F.R.L. Combination, PT1/4 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 manual drain and regulates 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi).
The GC30008MC2W 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. This 300-size unit is threaded PT1/4 (1/4 in PT), carries a 5 um filter element (the W grade, finer than the 40 um standard), uses a manual drain on the filter bowl, and includes a round gauge reading in psi on the regulator. It filters water and particulate from compressed air, holds a set downstream pressure, and adds oil mist to keep air tools and cylinders running.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GC family is available in 200, 300, 400 and 600 sizes with a choice of ports, thread types (PT standard, G and NPT as catalogue options), drain types, filter grades, gauge styles and scales. Maximum inlet pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and the working temperature range is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing. Flow figures are published as curves rather than a single rating, so ask us and we will confirm the datasheet figures for your application 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 0.05 - 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: 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 impact drivers, nut runners and air cylinders at an assembly station: the filter stage strips water and fine particulate, the regulator holds a stable tool pressure, and the lubricator carries oil mist to the tools.
Supplying the pneumatic pushers, clamps and stop cylinders on a carton packaging conveyor, where the 5 um element helps protect the directional valves cycling the line and the regulator keeps actuator speed consistent.
A wall-mounted drop at a maintenance bench running grinders, drills and blow guns: the set conditions the shop air once at the drop, and the psi gauge lets the operator read and set tool pressure directly.
Start with the size and port: 300 size with a 1/4 in PT port suits lines where the air demand sits in the 300-size band - step up to 400 or 600 for larger flow, or down to 200 for compact points of use, and match the port to your piping (PT standard, G or NPT to order). Choose the drain type: this unit has a manual drain, which needs someone to open the bowl drain periodically; automatic or differential-pressure drains are available on other codes if you want unattended condensate removal. The 5 um element here is the finer option - pick it where downstream valves and instruments tolerate less particulate than the 40 um standard element removes. The regulator adjusts from 0.05 to 0.9 MPa (7-130 psi) on this manual-drain configuration, and the fitted round gauge reads in psi; square embedded gauges and MPa or bar scales are the other catalogue choices. A mounting bracket is included.
Because flow is published as curves and not a single rated number, send us your air demand and line conditions and we will confirm 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 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 the GC series as curves, not as a single rated number, so we do not quote a figure here. Tell us your air demand and line pressure and we will confirm the datasheet flow figures for this 300-size, 1/4 in PT unit on request before you order.
The M in the code selects the manual drain on the filter bowl: condensate collected during filtration stays in the bowl until someone opens the drain. That suits attended installations with regular checks. If your line runs unattended, ask us about the GC codes with automatic or differential-pressure drains instead.
