The AirTAC GC30008MLF2W AirTAC F.R.L. Combination, PT1/4, 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 manual drain and regulates 0.05 - 0.9 MPa (7 - 130 psi).
The GC30008MLF2W is an AirTAC GC three-unit F.R.L. combination: a separate air filter, pressure regulator and oil-mist lubricator assembled as one air-preparation set. This size-300 configuration is threaded PT1/4 (1/4 in), carries the 5 um filter element (code W) instead of the 40 um standard, and uses a manual drain on the filter bowl, so condensate is removed by opening the drain valve by hand as part of routine checks. The regulator is the low-pressure type and is fitted with an embedded square gauge scaled in psi; the lubricator feeds oil mist downstream to pneumatic tools and cylinders. Maximum working (inlet) pressure is 1.0 MPa (145 psi) and the operating temperature range is -5 to 70 C, non-freezing. The bowls on the filter and lubricator are PC (polycarbonate) at this size.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The GC series is available in sizes 200, 300, 400 and 600, with port sizes from 1/8 in to 1 in, PT as the standard thread and G (BSPP) or NPT as orderable options, a choice of manual, automatic or differential-pressure drain, 40 um or 5 um filtration, gauge scale in MPa, psi or bar, and an optional reverse/check valve. Flow figures for this series are published as curves rather than a single rated number, so ask us to confirm the datasheet and sizing 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. The low-pressure type adjusts over a lower band than standard; we confirm the exact figures from the factory datasheet. 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 filtered, regulated and lubricated air to a press-shop clamping circuit, with the low-pressure regulator set to the fixture's working pressure and the 5 um element protecting sensitive valves.
Mounted at the drop of a packaging conveyor line to condition air for pick-and-place cylinders, keeping condensate out of the actuators and metering oil mist for consistent sealing.
Installed ahead of a machine tool's directional-valve manifold, combining water and particulate removal, low-pressure regulation with a psi gauge, and lubrication for the tool-changer cylinders.
Start with the port step: this unit is size 300 with a 1/4 in PT port; step up to size 400 or 600 if the line's flow demand points to a larger port, or down to size 200 for compact circuits. Choose the drain to match maintenance practice: manual drain (this configuration) needs an operator to bleed the bowl, while automatic or differential-pressure drain handles condensate without a hands-on step. This unit carries the 5 um element (code W); choose 40 um where coarser filtration is acceptable. The gauge here is the embedded square type scaled in psi; MPa or bar scales and an external round gauge are alternatives. Thread is PT as standard, with G (BSPP) and NPT available to order, and a mounting bracket is included. Because flow for this series is published as curves rather than a single rating, ask us to confirm sizing 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 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 a rated flow number. Tell us your application and we will confirm the datasheet curves and correct sizing on request.
The M in the code specifies a manual drain on the filter bowl: condensate is bled by hand during routine checks. Automatic and differential-pressure drain versions are available in the same size and port if you prefer drainage without a hands-on step.
