Controlair Type 6000 Volume Booster
High Flow Capacity in a Rugged Casing
The Type 6000 Volume Booster is a one-to-one signal to output relay that, when used with a positioner/actuator, is designed to increase the stroking speed of control valves. A large input signal change to the volume booster delivers high volume, fast action throttling control. An integral bypass valve provides system stability while allowing normal positioner airflow and normal valve actuation with small input changes. If the volume booster is to be used for on/off control valves, the bypass valve can be closed to optimize stroking speed. The Type 6000 is available in aluminum or 316 stainless steel construction.
Controlair Type 650 Positive Bias Relay
Output pressure from input signal plus a preset bias
The Type-650 positive bias relay is a signal operated regulator that provides an output pressure that is the sum of the input signal pressure plus a preset bias. The unit allows flow capaci ties up to 50 SCFM with minimal pressure drop. An aspirator tube at the output maintains the set pressure under varying flow conditions by causing the main supp!y valve to open and close proportionally to the flow demand. There is a choice of four adjustment ranges for the positive bias settings. This unit is most often used for conversion of a low flow control signal to the higher flow requirements of an operating system.
Controlair Type 600 Volume Booster
Meet high flow requirements with a low flow pneumatic signal
The Type-600 ratio relay volume booster is designed to use a pnuematic signal to produce an output pressure which has high flow capacity and can be amplified. This unit is most useful for systems requiring the conversion of a low flow control signal to the higher flow requirements of an operating system. Using an independent supply pressure for greater volume, the Type-600 relays up to 50 SCFM flow capacity to a final control element such as a valve actuator. The standard signal to output ratio is 1:1, however, the Type-600 is also available with an amplified ratio of 1:2, 1:3 and 1:6.
